In February we headed to Cabo San Lucas for the Warning family "adult" (plus nursing Paige) vacation. We had a blast playing/relaxing/chatting in the perfect sunny weather!
As we drove up to our resort we were followed by a convoy of black suburbans and were greeted by army men with machine guns....then we realized the G20 meeting was at our resort, meaning Hillary Clinton, the president of Mexico, and other world leaders were where we were staying! We had to have our car checked for bombs, had our car stopped on the freeway by a cop with a machine gun, army men walked by the pools with guns, and there was a naval ship right off our beach. It definitely added to our vacation experience.
Our room was lovely and nice and big for all 4 couples, and with room to play "Rage"each night. There was a number of different pools to enjoy, and one was more of the "activity" pool. We enjoyed water aerobics, basketball, volleyball, and some pool side bingo to win free drinks. The worker who ran bingo had some great sayings in his Spanish accent, "jummy jummy", "don't be jealous", "oh my goodness".
Paige loved the water and especially loved her floaty. She made friends with everyone at the pool floating by in this.
If she got worn out from that she would either....have a snack under an umbrella...
Take a rest in her stroller (she went on many "sleepy rides")...
Nap on the lounge chairs and with daddy by the pool...
Or take a soothing hot tub (not too hot) dip with Grandpa back on the deck.
And of course we loved getting to try out her summer clothes as we went out to town and dinner each night.
My mom thought Paige needed this cute black tankini to match mine :)
One night we went to eat a the same restaurant Ben and I went on our honeymoon, and then again when we went back and I was just 3 months along with Paige.
Flashback to honeymoon....
Pregnant with Paige....
And now! We love that restaurant!
That night we also grabbed some family pics at the resort

One morning the boys all went out deep sea fishing. Luckily Ben quickly caught two fish before he got nauseous and puked the rest of the time. He was still glad he went, especially since they had a seal (named Oscar) come up on the back of their boat to get food!
Then we took the fish they caught and had it cooked at a restaurant in the marina that night.
We spent many more hours soaking up the sun by the pool and beach

The last night we headed back out to the marina for dinner at Ruth's Chris.
It was so fun being with my family for a week, becoming closer as siblings, and soaking in the sun. Thanks mom and dad for an amazing vacation! And here's one last picture that just captures our week...
