day 239


The Easter Bunny came to Mexico! My momma surprised me with a chocolate bunny and my favorite chocolate eggs on Easter morning before we headed out to the airport :)

day 238


at the resort, there was a whole "entertainment team" who walked around all day getting people involved in activities (like pilates, water aerobics, pool games, salsa dances, etc...) They were so fun! These were two of our favorites...Amir and Alfredo!

day 237


is this perfect, or what?

day 236


On my first full day in Mexico, Maddie and I went swimming with dolphins! I've always always wanted to do this, and now I can check it off of my bucket list! These are pictures my mom took from the sidelines...we also got suckered into buying the professional photos they took at the place, but I don't have those here to show you.

ps. in this picture, two dolphins are pushing my feet up to make me fly like that! you lay flat on your stomach with your knees locked and they swim up behind you, put their noses into the flat part of your feet, and swim away!

day 235


Today was the start of a mini vacation....spring break part 2, I guess you could say! My family went to Riviera Maya for their Spring Break, and even though it technically wasn't my Spring Break, I was lucky enough to meet them there for the Wednesday - Sunday portion of the trip!

This is the resort we stayed at! Dreams Puerto Aventuras :)

day 220


I had to take a picture of this picture-perfect blue sky over the CYC today - especially because it was an ugly, rainy day all day until this point!

day 208


We got back in the car today for the 9 hour drive back to College Park...followed by a 2 hour ride back to Berwyn to continue with part 2 of Spring Break.

day 207



we took a mini road trip into Savannah today, which may just be one of my favorite cities! Everything was so southern and beautiful and in full bloom (thank God for allergy medicine!) I couldn't pick just one picture from the day, so here are a few!
just a cute hat store on River Street
Paula Deen's restaurant, y'all!

the "Life is Good" store there was called "Bob's Your Uncle"! Which I loved because...well, Bob is my uncle!

day 206


We started the day off right with mimosas by the pool :)

day 205


We packed in a ton on our first full day in Hilton Head - we hit the tennis courts, ate lunch at the Salty Dog cafe, shopped a little bit in South Beach Marina, rented bikes, went to the beach, rode our bikes into Harbourtown to shop, and had dinner Wild Wing Cafe. Whew! The picture is all of us in the cute rocking chairs along the marina in Harbourtown.

day 204


Today we hit the road at 5am to make the 9 hour trip to Hilton Head, South Carolina! We had to pull over at "South of the Border" after passing no less than 50 billboards advertising it on the way down. Turned out to be a let down, but I still made everyone get out of the car and take a picture :)
(we were all a little delirious from the car ride, if you couldn't tell from the picture.)
