Puerta Vallarta

Bliss.. pure bliss I tell ya.

We did NOT want this vacation to ever end.. in fact it was the best five days we have spent together in a long while. I am not trying to be sappy/annoying its true!!! The honeymoon always holds so much pressure from the aftermath of the wedding.. I think I was still stressed from the wedding that I didn't full enjoy my honeymoon. Now a year later.. I was set and ready to go on this romantic weekend with my man. We slept 14 hours each night.. which was an amazing change from our usual 5 AM wakeup call. We sauntered down to the breakfast cafe ate leisurely breakfasts each day while drinking our coffee ( well while I was drinking my coffee). The FOOD. WAS.UNBELEIVABLE. like If I didn't have self control I could have possibly gorged myself on all of the deliciousness that was set up in front of my eyes. But I did contain myself..kindof. After our usual breakfast of eggs, chorizo, and papaya...we went down to the beach. Brandon wanted to go straight to the mini bar but I needed to remind him each day that it was only 10 AM and that maybe we needed to wait until at least 11. :) So we went down to the beach..me with my book in tow and brandon with a pout (he didn't understand the point of the beach when there was a pool with mini bar ..) we layed in front of the water. No talking or anything..just appreciating the sound of the ocean while I read my book. It was nice... THEN we were ready for a Mojito so off to the pool bar we ran. The weather was beautiful, the sun was shining, and the tequila was STRONG :) We spent the majority of our day lounging in the cabana sipping minty mojitos and making friends with random Canadians, Londoners, and Cubans. When we were finished with our day at the pool it was up to shower change and get ready for dinner. Our resort had five restraunts: four of which we visited while we were there- Mexican, Seafood, Steak, and the Buffet for breakfast and lunch. My favorite was the Mexican food. Unlike our honeymoon experience, this resort had the Mexican food down PAT. I enjoyed the chips and salsa.. the meat kabobs alongside a charred pineapple..everything was so yummy. Brandon and I will take many many vacations together in our lifetime..although the future vacations may involve kids after this trip! HA! I have a bucket list of places I want to visit with my husband..and although it will take years to complete them all it is so fun to talk and dream and plan these types of get aways. I love spending time with my Brandy and cannot wait for fun future trips alone and with family!!!!

here are a few pictures from our wonderful Vacation.

Gf is set and ready!!! Brandon begged me not to wear the hat at the airport but I wouldn't listen. I looked like a beach girl!!!!! ARIIBAAA
