HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY, HUBBY!

The Mr. celebrated his 28th birthday earlier this month (which sounds like a totally reasonable excuse as to why I haven't blogged in so long).  We celebrated by taking a trip to MeXicO!  Well, not really... but kinda.  One of the Mr.'s high school buddies was getting married and it just so happened to coincide with the big birthday.  So what do I, the best wife ever, do for the hubby on his birthday in Mexico?


I made him miserable.  We went on a little excursion to the Mayan ruins of Tulum and then we went snorkeling in the most wonderful lagoon in Akumel, outside of Playa del Carmen.  It was wonderful.  For me.  Did I mention that the Mr. doesn't know how to swim and is petrified of putting his face under water?  The icing on the cake, so to speak, is that it was election day in Mexico.  That means that you can't buy alcohol anywhere on that one specific day -- his birthday.  Best birthday ever!!

In all seriousness, we had a good trip.  A week was a bit long for us to stay in one place but we had some quality time together with each other, his friends, and MY PARENTS who decided to crash the party at the last responsible moment.

Aren't they cute?!

Happy wedding guests (please ignore our wind-swept hair).

My favorite picture!  Who has bigger muscles?!

La playa.

This trip concludes wedding season 2012 and our travels for the year (we think).  Which leaves me more time to blog, obviously.

Until next time!
