Home Sweet Home

After 8 days of R&R in beautiful Cabo San Lucas, it's so nice to be back home. We returned late Monday night, and I finally have all our laundry done. I don't have tons of vacation photos to share with you-I have found that I have much more fun if I just leave my camera in the room! If I have it with me, I don't even take the opportunity to enjoy what I am experiencing, because I am too busy taking photos. Stevie took most of our photos this vacation, and as soon as I get her card from her, I will post more. Until then, here's one of my favorites taken the first day.



When planning our vacations, I always choose a resort that is away from all the hustle and bustle of a tourist town. We stayed on the opposite side of the peninsula-away from all the commotion. For those of you who have seen Disney's "Madagascar", we called the busy side the "fossa" side-it drives me mad when I can't walk down the beach without someone offering to braid my hair, give me a henna tattoo, and sell me a handwoven basket all at the same time. Don't get me wrong, I like having access to those things, and for that reason, we spent a little bit more on taxis into town, but being able to take a quiet walk on the beach makes it totally worth it for me. There was NO ONE on the beach when I took this shot. The waves in Cabo were some of the most spectacular waves I have ever seen. You could stand yards away and feel the force behind each one. We literally spent hours over the course of the trip just watching them, in awe.

Later today, I will post images from Mary and Nathan's wedding, so be sure to check back. Also, an anonymous person nominated me for MDA's Lockup, coming up on September 10th. I was happy to volunteer for this opportunity to be "locked up" for this wonderful charity, so later today I will let you all know what you can do to get me out of jail, and more importantly, help out Jerry's Kids!
