Everything's Bigger In Texas!: Hola Amigos!

Jarrod and I are back safe and sound from our "honeymoon" in Cancun, Mexico! While we had to wait until this March to go on a honeymoon, it was totally worth it to revisit being newlyweds and to just spend time together. No phones, no email, no animals, no school and no work made for a perfect week.

We stayed at the Casa Magna Marriot hotel which I would highly recommend, especially if you can get an ocean facing room. Total beauty every morning! The hotel was right on the beach so every morning we just packed our awesome cooler that we got from Nola and hit the sand to catch some rays. There was always a strong breeze (almost too strong a few of the days) so it never felt too hot and if we wanted the hotel pool was a few steps away to cool down in. Why the pool and not the ocean you may wonder? The pool had a bar in it :) Which would be a neat trick for mother nature I must say....

Each day was pretty much the same and we decided to not really do anything touristy so we were pretty much on the beach every day. In the afternoons we would venture further up the Hotel Zone to where more things were happening (It was Spring Break, so there was A LOT happening) and we'd grab dinner and find a fun bar or two. Some nights were loud and crazy and a then there were the few quite ones we spent just at the hotel. Both were great and very much needed :)

It was a real bummer to come home after such a relaxing week, especially with an overnight lay over in Mexico City, but we're so glad we went and are already looking forward to our next vacation!!!

Now on to the photos:

This was looking right off our balcony. How amazing is the color of the water?! These photos don't do this place justice since they were all taken on my phone :P forgot the camera!
