Oh- Mexico!

Well we did it! We survived Mexico! Or better yet- we survived the plane rides to and from Mexico! :) As many of you know, I HATE to fly. So I was quite relieved when our wheels landed safely back at LAX.

Day 1: Girls: relax at the pool/ beach
Boys: work on scuba certification

The amazing view from our balcony. We were on the 18th floor.

Life is good!

Dylan explaining to me what the helicopter did when it flew past our balcony.

Day 2: Girls: Pool/Beach
Boys: finish scuba certification

Day 3: Chitzen Itza/Cenote

Dylan wanted to do just as our tour guide was doing :)

The breathtaking Cenote.

Yup- I jumped! Not until after the whole place was chanting for me to do it- my nerves got to me!

Day 4: Church and Senor Frogs:)

Day 5: Girls: Zip Line/ Horseback Riding
Boys: Babysit/ Dive & Feed the Sharks

Daddy's little camera man.

Day 6: Hummer Jungle Tour/ Girls: Night at the Spa

~El Rey~

Notice the iguana Dylan is chasing...

The beautiful beach- I thought this picture looked like a postcard.

Driving the hummers through the water- it was SO fun!

Dylan hadn't realized what was on Christian's shoulder yet... It's supposed to be a mix between a raccoon and a monkey- all I know and need to know is that it's a rodent.

Cenote

Christian jumping into the 2nd Cenote of the day into...

THIS. A little spooky if you ask me.

Our visit to the fishing village.

Day 7: Girls: Pool/Beach
Boys: Spear Fishing/Scuba Dives at Cozumel

"Aye, aye, aye, aye..."

We had a wonderful trip and enjoyed being together as a family before Christian entered the workforce this past Tuesday!

Sunday Christmas Outfits

Aren't these boys cute? They're the best of friends.

Santa

Christian was smart and decided to prepare Dylan to meet Santa by showing him pictures of Santa on the computer. Dylan loved his new friend and kept asking Christian to show him more pictures. When we got to breakfast with Santa Dylan had no problem when Santa came out and practically jumped out of my arms when he saw that Santa had candy canes. So just when I was going to put Dylan on Santa's lap, dear ole Santa decided to let out a big "HO, HO, HO!" And as a result...

This happened.

And this.

And finally this.

As we walked away Dylan told me "No tanta!" (His first time saying Santa! It was so cute!)

DisneyLand

I was looking through our pictures and noticed that I forgot to post these pics of Dylan's first trip to Disneyland back in October!

Taking it all in...

Waiting patiently in line with his buddy Vincent.

His first ride- The Tea Cups! He loved it and was putting his hands up in the air. :)

It's a Small World

Buzz Light Year! (Dylan got a little nervous on this ride)

Swearing In Ceremony

This past Thursday Christian was sworn in as an official lawyer by a California Judge! We are so proud of him!

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year we spent it with the Robinson side of the family. We drove up to Palos Verdes and started the morning off with the annual Turkey Trot.

Dylan wasn't too sure about being in the jogger.

We have so much to be thankful for and are so grateful for all of our blessings!
