Get ready for a bundle of pictures. It's been a couple of months since I've blogged and you can sure tell by this post. Recently we went on a seven day cruise to Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta. AMAZING!!! Loved every second of it. The pictures don't do it justice. I'll explain as we go.
Before we headed on our cruise we went down to Vegas and stayed a night there at the Planet Hollywood Hotel. We did a lot of shopping and of course we hit up Cheesecake factory. My favorite!!
We also stayed in Los Angeles a couple nights before our cruise. Thanks Ryan and Jenny. We headed down to the beach with Ryden and Jenny. Love that little guy!
Ryden
Can't get enough of this sexy guy! MM!!
Speaking of MM... these cupcakes were to die for! In the Strawberry one that Ju has it is filled with Strawberry filling. Best ever! The mint was amazing too.
We first signed up for our cruise with the cheapest room possible, and I guess they felt bad for us so they upgraded us to a room with a balcony! We loved it... ate breakfast on it every morning and enjoyed the view.
Formal Night...
This dessert was so delectable! We had it every night.. hence the weight gain! Warm Melting Cake! Must I say more?
Love this pic.
This is when were first arriving in Cabo San Lucas right by Lovers Beach and by the famous arch.
We had to ride the Mexican Taxi... a guy on his bike pulling us. We had to get the full experience.
We went to this Mexican Authentic restaurant. They had the best salsa ever!
Ju was loving his burrito a little too much! :)
Us at Lovers Beach
We were practicing just incase we had to go save someone.
Our second formal night, but Ju changed before the pic.
While in Cabo we also went parasailing. I was really nervous at first to do it, but then right when we started to go into the air it was so calm and peaceful. It felt like we were just floating. So fun!
Isn't that thing enormous?!
Another Lovers Beach
A couple of times at night on the cruise ship they would show movies on the big screen and give out popcorn. It was awesome sitting in the layout chairs watching movies. Perfect.
The next location our cruise went was to Puerto Vallarta. It is totally opposite from Cabo. Cabo is completely dry while Vallarta is moist and green. It was a jungle. We scheduled an Extreme Canopy Adventure there. One word... SPECTACULAR!! Best thing I've ever done outside. We went on about a half hour boat ride, took safari jeeps up the mountain, rode mules up the mountain, zip lined down the mountain, and repelled. It took about six and a half hours. Best experience.
This is where we were given our mules.
Ju on his mule.
The coolest thing about these mules is they are competitive little guys.. Mine was the most competitive of all. His name was Kongora (Kangaroo). He raced up that mountain like a champ. Every time someone would come close to passing he would cut them off and get a moving. ha
Us before the zip lining began.
So fun. Just gorgeous.
He was a pro.
After we repelled into the waterfall.
Some friends we made while we were there.
Ju doing his repel.
At the end we raced and Ju wasted me! Oh man!
Our origami towels. Of course I took a picture everyday of our housekeepers skills. I loved them, they were so cool.
Rewinding now to what we were doing before our cruise. Here we are up in Brian Head for the 4th of July fireworks. They are still way better than St. George.
During the day of the 4th of July we went early and had breakfast and then walked around all the booths they had. We also had lunch down there too. They had delicious navajo tacos. MMM!! Kent and Carol came up too!
We went boating and Macy and Syd tried to get up on skis for there first time. Macy was a champ! She got up and stayed up!! WOOHOO!!!! Syd almost got up.. she'll do it next time I know it!
The Van Leuvan Reunion
Ju and I decided to take our bikes out and go up to Giant Steps. Beautiful view.
On top of the world!
Enjoying the cabin one last time before we moved to Colorado! I already miss it!
Tepanyaki... Yum! We went there with Kens, Josh, and Ayd to celebrate Ju graduating!
I know this is super late, but here are pics from our Ray Brooks Family Reunion.
At the splash pad during the reunion.
We also celebrated my dad's 60th birthday!
We had an awesome Summer as you can tell! Now we get to go on with our lives to Medical School. Justin started Orientation on Monday and will officially start school on Friday! Good Luck babe! Starting another journey of our lives.
