puerto peñasco


We went to MEXICO! 

We had our own little spring break get-a-way to Puerto Peñasco! Some great friends from church invited us a while a back and I hesitated since we didn't know what Eric's work schedule was going to be. They talked me into going even if Eric couldn't, so I got work off in hopes that Eric would be able to come and he did!!! It was a quick 4 hour trip right across the boarder. It worked out for us to go a day sooner so stayed in a hotel the first night and then met up with the rest of our crew the next day at our beach front house! The views were amazing with the beach and the water out our back door. There is NOTHING better than waking up to the waves crashing on the beach. It definitely brought back some great Statia, island life memories. 
We are so thankful to Dan and Michelle for inviting us on such a fun trip! We had a great time with them and their two boys along with Todd, Mallory and baby Hailee. 
We hope to make it an annual thing, right guys? :) 

I wanted to document EVERYTHING. 
Every little thing from the horses on the beach to the towels in the bathroom! 
The simple things. 
So, get ready for photo overload.
