Snorkeling Trip

Today was a GREAT day!! We set out bright & early for an awesome snorkeling trip. The weather was great & we got to see some beautiful sights...


We had sunscreen on & we were ready for a great day....

The girls stayed in the boat while everyone went snorkeling. I thought they looked cute as they tried to find their Daddies.


Daddy & Cheney coming back in from snorkeling. This the 1st time that Cheney has really been able to snorkle in the ocean. He saw a puffer fish & got to go into a cave.


The area we are in is surrounded by the Sierra Madre mountains. This is what the shoreline looked like most of the day. In this picture, you can see a blow hole--when the waves come in the water shoots through the hole on top of the rock & makes a roaring sound. Have you seen the movie "Fool's Gold?" A blow hole is important in that movie.

Kylie & I had TONS of fun today playing in the waves!! We got tossed around a couple of times & got sand in places that we didn't know we could get sand. The sand is so much better than the beach in Texas. It doesn't stick to you...it is much more coarse. The group got some laughs from us as we were sent head over heels onto the beach by the waves. THANKS FOR HANGING WITH ME, KYLIE!!

We are having a great week. Our house is beautiful. We have a wonderful housekeeper/cook...her name is Karina. She is feeding us well!! We are definately going to be spoiled when we get home & probably have gained 10 lbs.

Adios!!

The water is so pretty! It makes me want to go back to Mexico. It sounds/looks like you are really being pampered!

Oh my goodness, is this just the best vacation ever??

I so want to be at the beach with the waves and sand like you all are! Soak it in. Soak it all in!!

Looks like fun! I like the view of the mountains and the water together. Mommy says she remembers going on this type of snorkeling trip with you and Jeff.
