we went on a fantastic trip to punta mita during the last week of june. it was definitely hot and humid (a winning combo), but it was a great excuse to sit in the pool for hours or jump around in the warm waves. with great company, our own pool, and a golf cart as transportation, all of us can't wait to return. i even read two books...now that's a vacation!
 |
| waiting patiently for our 7am pick-up |
 |
| strapped in and off to the airport |
 |
checking in our 2 bags
(pretty good for 7 days for a party of 5, right?!) |
 |
| let's do this! |
 |
lyla did pretty well...even when i had to convince her
that it's not polite to kick the chair in front of her |
 |
can you tell they are great travel companions...
always next to each when waiting |
 |
| still smiling on the way to our condo |
 |
| we got in just in time to clean up and head to dinner |
 |
| the nearby beach club had great pools, food and swings! |
 |
| taking in the beauty of the waves and setting sun |
 |
| jacks had to be forced to come eat dinner |
 |
| he literally could have sat and watched the waves for hours |
 |
| my wiggly sleeping buddies |
 |
| someone needed a quick nap at breakfast! |
 |
| loaded up for the 5 minute ride to the beach club |
 |
| now our vacation can officially begin! |
 |
| this kid was in heaven chasing waves all week |
 |
| such a lovely view |
 |
we spent the afternoons hanging around the house
to avoid the excruciatingly hot sun |
 |
| jacks painting an airplane |
 |
aunt liliana brought some amazing dress-up clothes
from argentina |
 |
| when it cooled off a bit, we'd play some frisbee |
 |
| and head out for a snack! |
 |
| we had our own plunge pool which was perfect for pre-dinner swims |
 |
| lyla loved the pool as much as jacks and liv |
 |
| our attempt at a family picture |
 |
| the three cuties |
 |
| jacks took off running every time a wave approached |
 |
| the water was so warm and so peaceful to watch |
 |
the kids had many fun adventures,
including coconut hunting... |
 |
| mani-pedi's with abuelo and abuela... |
 |
| playing cards with marcela... |
 |
| and checking emails with mom! |
 |
| well rested and ready to swim |
 |
| the pelle trio |
 |
| here we come!!!! |
 |
| doing laps in the sand |
 |
| lots and lots of feet |
 |
| here comes crazy!! |
 |
| pure joy |
 |
| liv and john braved the rocky bottom to find a sandbar |
 |
| poor girl was tuckered out from the heat and activity |
 |
| our lunch-time ritual...quesadillas! |
 |
| we took a walk to explore another beach |
 |
| my sweet boy |
 |
we headed to this little "island" but had to cross a "bridge" first
(thankfully, the tide was low) |
 |
| the rocks were slippery but we made it safely |
 |
| thanks to john's long arms, we managed a decent family selfie! |
 |
| time to head back to the pool |
