Here's a run down of our vacation...let's just say we had a lot of fun...
We decided to drive to the airport and stay at the DFW Hyatt because they were offering a special to park. So, after Brooklyn's 5th birthday (our niece) we drove to the hotel. We had a lovely dinner at the restaurant and then Josh fell asleep shortly after that so I played on the laptop.

The next day we woke up, had breakfast, and relaxingly strolled over to our terminal. I highly recommend staying the night before at the airport. It makes the beginning of your vacation seem so much less hectic already being at the airport. Plus, anyplace that has a Starbucks is on the top of my list in the mornings! Our flight wasn't very long and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be to fly over water. .JPG)
In fact, it just looked like sky below us. When we flew over the Houston area we could see little boats. Well, actually if we could see them, they were probably huge but whatever! I just spent the flight reading some books and listening to my ipod. I was pretty excited to go to Cozumel since we've been there so many times but only by cruise ship. I was more nervous about flying to another country. I don't know why either because it wasn't that big of a deal. As we were standing around the aeropuerto de Cozumel I looked across the luggage conveyor and saw Amber Griffith from high school!!!! .JPG)
How crazy small is this world? Josh is not even surprised when I run into people I know anymore since it happens EVERYWHERE we go!!! As it turned out, Amber and her hubby Chad, and some of their friends were staying at the same resort as Josh and me so we ran into them often throughout the week. When we finally got to Occidental Grand Resort, it was pouring down rain. It continued to do this for the rest of the day but that was okay because we got some great pictures with my WATERPROOF camera!!! I realized that all these years I was missing out on the settings that digital cameras have by only ever using the automatic setting. My new camera has some pretty awesome settings so I started playing with them and if you didn't know any better one might think that my flower pictures are professional quality! Okay, so I have a long way to go but I tried my best to capture the beauty of this resort.

They clearly take pride in their landscaping. I asked Josh if he thought we could make our backyard look like the grounds of the resort and he said he didn't think that would be possible on the limited amount of knowledge either of us has on plants! So, looks like we'll just have to travel to tropical places to see it in person! Oh, darn! Anyway, we basically just relaxed and took in the island. After me taking about a hundred pictures of everything I saw on the island and Josh getting really annoyed, we were able to compromise when we found a bar! I was able to take pictures and Josh was able to not be annoyed with my picture taking! See, it's all about compromise! .JPG)
