Rocky Point 2011

This is us, in pictures, last week in Mexico. Super fun. All except for the part where Kara got her purse stolen from their very nice SUV while we were eating ice cream at Thrifty's in the fish market Wednesday night. That pretty much sucked. The hole in the window was an added bonus. But other than that on our first night there, it was all great as normal. That will teach us all to take our purses with us and not leave them in plain view in a dark parking lot! I know, I know...it could happen anywhere, even in the parking lot at church, but it totally stinks when it happens in another country and when all your family's passports, your wallet, cell phone and cold cash are in the purse. Thankfully, no one was around when in happened and no one was hurt and they had no issue getting back across the border after they presented their police report. Still, after all the years and many many trips we've been going, we've never had any problems, let alone something like this.

But enough about that...here's us having too much fun the rest of the trip:


Eating ice cream popsicles on the beach,

playing at the pools at Las Palomas,

enjoying lots of fine music at Ramon's, one of our favorite dining locales,


looking super cute from the balcony of our awesome 3-bedroom condo,


Digging giant holes in the sand with a killer shovel courtesy of the Crandell's (we just went and bought two of our own from Ace yesterday - can't wait to use them in Carlsbad in a couple weeks).

Eating dinner at Lucas with the Ellingsons & Grandma Cheri & Grandpa Bob (my numero uno favorite dining spot)


lovin' the awesome beach weather



Doing lots and lots of shopping with the local beach vendors...just doing our part to support the Rocky Point economy :)

Playing in the killer waves with the Ellingson kids (Jayke & Easton below)



Just looking like a supermodel on the beach. Can she help it if she's so cute?


Spending lots of time in the tubes trying not to get toppled by the waves (Graci & Barrett below)


Ummm....finding joy in seaweed collections...


The car ride home!

Can't wait to go back! BTW - I didn't get a picture of one of my other favs - eating mangos with lime on a stick, but trust me...I had a few :)

  1. Looks like you had lots of fun! I have never been a Mexico lover myself but I do hear they have incredible food there! Maybe I need to give it a second chance
