We had the BEST trip to Mexico. It was an absolute blast, and I would repeat again and again. The kids were thoroughly entertained, we were pleased with the resort, the food was good, the rooms were nice, etc.
Here is a little picture montage of the 7 days we were there:
The EXHAUSTED kids after our red eye flight through Mexico City.
But as exhausted as they were, the kid water park was up first on the agenda.
It was like a mini Raging Waters, and they loved it.
We were poolside a bunch of the time, and these two loved playing in the hammocks.
Sweet thing got to hold some monkeys that she died over!
Dash was OBSESSED with the all-inclusive part.
Especially the pina coladas, strawberry daquiris, virgin mojitos and fresh coconuts.
He would drink half of anyone’s drink if he got that first sip!
This was an attempt at a kid picture on our way to lunch.
Here is Dash putting on his own shoes to get to dinner.
We were worried about the food, but it ended up being REALLY good.
This lobster dinner was especially great.
My kids opted for a lot of pasta!
Here is her attempt at spinning the fork!
And then there is Scout who spun one noodle around his finger and then ate the whole thing like a sucker.
Here is the happiest baby on Earth giving Nonnie knuckles.
After dinner we hit up the “mini disco” where the kids had a sweaty blast!
Here is Navy sporting one of her Mexico purchases.
The kids club was amazing, and had stuff going on all day long — even well into night!
Here they are on their way to the trampoline launch.
Scout went crazy high!
And then Navy did too!
Here was our Japanese dinner that everyone loved.
Another attempt at a group shot with crazy kids.
One of the nights was the “Newlywed Game”, and when half of the crowd went up to “vote” for their favorite, Dash arched his back and kicked until I let go. The he ran as fast as he could to get to a side set of stairs to run up and start dancing with the others on stage to “Gangham Style”. We were all dying! He was hilarious, and loved the attention.
Here is the traveler of the century. We brought NayNay, and she was a blast to have along, and my kids die over her.
Anytime my kids wanted a drink, they would get NayNay in the pool and they would swim to the pool bar to get their drink of choice.
It was awesome!
But I think these two created a bond that will always be tight from this trip!
This was an awesome day when a huge storm came rolling in.
It was awesome and creepy at the same time.
Our final attempt at a group shot!
Nice work NayNay.
This was the official shell collector.
She could have collected all day every day.
When we flew home, it was a day flight, and our kids were crazy!
CRAZY!
I felt bad for those around us.
But I felt the worst for me who wrestled and entertained Dash for three hours on our second flight.
And when he finally laid down to rest, I heard that seat belt ding go off for our descent into LAX.
I think the look on my face might just say it all.

It was a blast!
But I might hire a plane babysitter the next go around!
