Eric won a trip from work. It was 4 days and 3 nights. I thought we are barley going to get there and then we are going to have to come home. That is not what happened. It was SOOOOOO much fun and so relaxing. I have never been able to lay at the pool from 9 am-6pm with people coming to ask me what I want to eat or drink every 10 min. It was an all inclusive resort including room service. We ate like PIGS!!! I had the best time of my life with my husband. We enjoyed each other with no interuptions which we aren't able to do with kids that often.
The first day we looked around and had a dinner on the beach. Then next day we went on a catamaran snorkeling adventure. The boat ride was about 3 hours there snorkeling for an hour and 3 hours back. I love to lay out so it was perfect. Then we went out to dinner at a 4 star restaurant at the resort for free. We ordered 5 appetizers, 4 meals and 5 desserts and anything that we wanted to drink. We didn't have to pay a cent. That was awesome. We had dinner with some friends that won the trip as well. We didn't eat all of that food by ourselves. ;-)
The third day I laid by the pool from 9am-6pm. It was so relaxing. Eric went on a zip line adventure where they went out on a 45 min boat road, then road Mercedes SUV's then went zip lining through the trees and in the water and then took the boat back. He was gone for 8 hours and I stayed at the pool the whole time. Then we went out to dinner in down town Puerta Vallarta. They took us to 3 art gallery's in we ate in the 3rd one. We had an awards ceremony as well. The next day we just lounged at the pool until we went home at 3pm. Eric stayed in the shade the whole time with his friend.
My mom and dad watched our kids and they both got the flu while we were gone so that was the hard part, but who better to take care of them then my mom. She raised me so I feel so comfortable leaving them with my parents. Eric and I had a great time.
Here are a few photos from our trip!

The view outside our room.
Eric at the swim up bar in the infinity pool.
This turtle came out of the ocean during the day. She worked her way up to the top and started digging a whole and she laid her eggs. It was crazy to see. The guy who was helping her said that they usually don't do it until it is dark.
Here is the guy helping her. They take the eggs to a safe location.

I mean I guess that view is OK from your room. I've seen better! No I am glad you guys had so much fun.
I like Denise's comment. I have never seen anything more beautiful. I am so glad that you guys had such a great time. You look beautiful and Eric looked so handsome. You both look amazing.
What a wonderful time you guys had! I'm craving chocolate cake now! I still can't believe how tan you are! Glad you had such a nice time :)
That looks like such a beautiful place! The cake looked amazing too
:0) Get a ways without kids are the best. Taking time to recharge is good for everybody and I think it makes us better Mom's. What would we do without Grandma's and Grandpa's who are so willing to watch our babies? I'm so glad you had a great time!
