Our Once in a Lifetime Trip

I titled this post very literally. Let me first say, that we had a great time...Cabo was beautiful, the weather was gorgeous, the food was delicious, and the people/culture was as warm as the weather. We would go back in a heartbeat and highly recommend the Riu Sante Fe, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico to anyone....just DO NOT go with a 1 year old!!! Talk about needing a vacation from your vacation. I have come to the conclusion that going on a trip with a young toddler is more like packing up your life in a suite case (or 5), moving it to another location that lacks the familiarity and conveniences (food, gates, baby-proofed rooms) of your own home. Naomi was in deed a trooper, but she didn't care for the food and only took one half-hour nap each day. She quickly adjusted to the time change so she went to bed each night by 8pm, but there was NO pushing it! It gave us ladies some time to rest and read and Brad & Brian got some "man-cation" time at night. We went with our good friends, Brian, Stacy & Leah Adams. We vacationed so well together!!

Here is our super spread of photos from the trip:

One flight over and one to go

Loving the pool
The first night was the hardest. Naomi was still on our time and went to bed @ 6:00 so Brad & I ate in the bathroom!

Is it time to go home yet?!?!

I think she's trying to tell us something...
"I had a great time, but I'm ready to go home and see my dogs!"
Thank you Adams' for a great trip! Let's do it again next year (perhaps minus children?!?). We are blessed to call you friends!!!!
