Week with Family: Friday and Saturday

Sorry these pictures are out of order. On Friday morning we made the 4-hour bus ride to Tulum since my parents and I love the caribbean and Neal had never seen it before! Poor Neal, I slept half the way...I was tired too! But since he can't sleep in a moving vehicle, it makes it hard to sleep in a bus!! But once we got to Tulum, we had a bite to eat and some gelato!! I surprised them with that little fact until we got to Tulum otherwise I think Neal might have gone a little crazy... =) But after enjoying some yummy gelato we got to our hotel and hung out in the hammocks and then went to the beach. That night Neal and I had our own little date at the restaurant that was at the hotel so that was really nice to finally be able to sit down and share a meal together since we haven't done that since August. Crazy how time has flown but also seems so long ago!!

Saturday morning we got up, had breakfast, and were in the water a little while until I cut my toe pretty bad on a rock that I didn't see in the water. At least there weren't any broken toes! After getting it cleaned and bandaged up, we went to the ruins in Tulum so they could see how pretty they are--on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean sea.

Us at the ruins overlooking the beautiful blue water.

So the water was cold and Neal decided to splash some water on me after I told him I didn't want to get wet. So I had to get him back!! I'm not going to let him pick on me without fighting back, thats for sure!

Ya, I'm not wanting to get in...this is right before Neal splashed me...

An awesome photo mom and dad got when they got up super early to see the sunrise on Saturday morning.

This is postcard material! Mom--have you ever thought about that? Just kidding...you have enough going on!

Another beautiful picture of the beach in front of the restaurant and hotel Saturday morning.

The sunset looking back at the hotel Friday night.

Friday night on the beach.

On the beach. This is one of my favorite pictures. =) Notice who the cold one was? ME!! And that was about 80ish degrees...not so sure how my body is going to handle a 60 degree change in temperature on Saturday!

Another one of my favorites--walking to the beach

Dad just relaxing after getting to the hotel.

The whole time before my experience in the little village of Tinum, I had always slept in my hammock like a banana. However, that weekend I learned that you are really supposed to sleep in the hammock the opposite way..so I was trying to do that with Neal when we got to the hotel, but the hammock wasn't wide enough for how tall he is.

On the bus ride to Tulum. They were showing Rush Hour 3. I love those movies...I just think the difference in mine and Neal's expressions are great! Haha.
