A Day at the Zoo

So before I left to go on my cruise I decided to take the girls to the zoo because Ami won a free pass for reading during the summer from the library. They had a great time and unfortunately I didn't get many pictures of the animals. I only got some pics of the fish. But we had fun and enjoyed ourselves. The only thing that would have made it better is if Chad could have came with us instead of working but it didn't happen that way.

More Kiara and Mommy Time

Here are some more pics of Kiara and I having quality time together. She also is loving on her baby doll which I just think is so cute that she is so nurturing to it. And of course I had to sneak in a self photo of myself! LOL

Time alone with Mommy

With Amerisa gone at Grandma's house, Kiara and I have had alot of one on one time with each other. I think Kiara likes all the attention she is getting from being the only child at home. As you can tell from these pics of us, she seems very happy with being spoiled!








I just think this face is GREAT! Look at that one squinty eye. LOL



This is her new dirty look that she has discovered.

Halloween

Ami spent Halloween at my parents house this year. Her Aunt Cori took her around town Trick-or-Treating.

Isn't she just the cat's meow? The cutest little kitten I have ever seen!


All ready to go get some candy!



Kiara was a little fairy this year... One that gets into mischief!




Chad and I were very boring this year. We didn't dress up or go out or anything, just stayed inside and watched TV. It was nice.


Daddy got his little fairy!


What?!


Isn't she just precious?


Fairies have gotta stay healthy too!

MY MEXICAN RIVIERA VACATION!!!

Ok, so I finally got a minute to sit down at the computer and put up pics of my vacation to the Mexican Riviera! I had a blast and it was nice and warm, infact it got up two 102 degrees two of the days that we were in Mexico.
The first place that we went to was Puerta Viarta. We had a blast there. We went on a Pirate Ship Adventure where they preformed a show for us while we sailed to our beach destination. Then while we were there we got to snorkle, kayak, and ride on the water weenie! That took up our whole time that we were allowed to spend there that day so we didn't get to do any shopping.
The next place we stopped at was Mazatlan. We decided that we were going to do our shopping there and get all of our gifts and stuff like that. I just absolutly love being followed around by all the mexicans that just swarm to you like flies when you are trying to walk down the street to look at the stuff you wanna look at. (Did you catch the sarcasm?) Not to mention all the cat calls we got and offers for Mexican Lovers. No thank you! Mexican is not really my type! LOL Not to mention I already have Chad, who needs more than that!? j/k Anyway, we were taxied around in a golf cart to and from the place we decided to go shopping at. They are such freaky drivers there in Mexico. I thought I was going to die! Infact I almost thought I was going to lose a limb at one point because we were driving down the middle of the road to pass a truck and there was a car coming at us. What an experience! LOL
The last place we visited was Cabo San Lucas. This was my favorite place that we visited. We decided to go on a kayaking excursion over to the beach with the rock formations that Cabo is known for. We got to play in the crystal clear water and do a little bit of snorkling. I just loved how warm the water was and that you could see everything around you (so you would know if a shark was coming for you or not). LOL We also got to do a little bit of shopping on Cabo as well. This is where I got Chad his present. I got him a sword that was carved out of the nose of a swordfish. It is pretty awesome. If you ever come over ask to have a look at it.
We also had alot of fun on the ship and ATE alot of good, yummy, delicious food! We went swimming and laid out next to the pool during the day, watched the preformances in the evening, and late night we went dancing at Skywalkers Club where I impressed everybody with my moves! j/k
Overall I had a great time hanging out with my sisters and I would LOVE to do it again. But it is nice to be back home with my family and my own stuff. I just miss never having to clean or cook!

We got bored waiting. These are our not so sexy, sexy faces! LOL



Cheesing it.



Do you see Jaba the HUT sitting behind me?


Ok this is my really ugly face that no one will ever see in their lifetime again! So go ahead and have a good laugh at this one. I told ya we got bored waiting for the show to start.



These are Cori and Jessie's ugly faces.



Getting ready to go lay out in the nice warm sun!



Our pic opportunity


I do not know what Jessie is doing here. Trying to be sexy? I think Cori looks very pretty in this pic.

I really like this pic of Sarah and me. Everybody thought that we were twins. Sarah really liked that because they thought she was my age.


A self photo oportunity for me (of course)


In front of our Pirate Ship. I believe it was called the Marigalante.



Help!!! I am being strangled by a mexican pirate!!!



He captured all of us!

While Jessie was taking this picture she was saying, "You are animals, growl for me. Be an animal, you are an animal!" It was hilarious!


Lovers beach at Cabo.

Very cool rock formations. Don't be jeolous of my sexy body.

Ah, a pic of all the Sexy Sistas together!


And on the other side of the penisula at Divorce Beach. The waves were really big here.


Jessie got an awesome makeover at the Salon on the ship.


She looks very pretty, except don't know why she didn't smile for this pic.


Our cabin boy made another animal, this time an elephant.


Cheese!
