The summer is finally here and we are loving the warm weather. Especially Davin. He loves playing in the dirt and water. He has even crawled through the sprinklers. 
Aren's mom, Patsy, bought him a swimming pool and he loves it! So before all of this rain started and it was actually starting to get warm, Davin was swimming almost everyday. He LOVES the water. It doesn't matter if its a small blow up pool or a huge pool. He loves splashing around. We can't get him out. He has experimented with the water by putting his face in it and he loves to crawl out and then back in.

For those of you who don't know where Cabo is, it is at the bottom of the Baja Peninsula. There is no time difference and it is very Americanized with Costco, Walmart, Burger King, Subway and they even have a mall. Cabo was amazing! Aren, Davin, and I were so lucky to be able to go last week (04/ 20-04/27). We had a great time experiencing just about everything Cabo has to offer and spending time with family and friends. Our friend Jeff, Aren's sister, Atessa & her husband Tyler and his brother Brent and his wife Janet also came. It was such a fun, amazing, and beautiful place to visit. I would recommend it to anyone trying to plan a vacation. There were dozens of sites to see and things to do. We definitely needed more time. I wish we could have stayed at least 3 more days. 7 days just wasn't enough time to do everything we wanted to. We got on the airplane at 7:30 Monday morning and had a layover in Denver then we were off to Cabo. We arrived in Mexico around 1 pm. Davin is a born traveler. He did so good. I was impressed. He rode on my lap and slept for most of the plane ride. When we arrived at the airport we signed up for a timeshare presentation because that is how you get to enjoy everything for FREE or in our case cause we were under age 30 we enjoyed everything for more than 50% off. Thanks to Brent & Janet we would have payed a bundle if they didn't tell us about the timeshare. We then took a taxi to the hotel. People are crazy drivers in Mexico! And I thought we were bad in Utah. All the roads are highways and the roads have no lanes. We would be driving with 4 lanes of traffic and it would all of a sudden turn into 2 lanes and the traffic just flowed. Unlike here where there are traffic jams cause we are stubborn. =)
We finally arrived at the hotel {the Pueblo Bonito Rose} on The Sea of Cortez around 2:30pm. Yup, our hotel was right on the beach. It was so pretty. The first thing we did when we got to our hotel was take a look around and went down to the beach. It was amazing to see. I have only been to the beach in California and the waves in Mexico were so different. Davin was a little scared of the waves at first but later loved when the water hit his toes. There were a ton of boats out and people wave running. Every day there was a different cruise ship in our bay. Wow! Those a big boats. There was a huge yacht that showed up on Tuesday. It's owned by some guy that lives in British Columbia or somewhere by there. He has his driver drive the boat to the bay and then he flys in on his helicopter. He goes to Cabo for a month every year. The name of the yacht is Attessa. Aren's sisters name. 
Monday night we went to an outside restaurant and Tyler went up on stage and won for having the best Mexican yell. Then Jeff won a contest as well. We were 2 for 2 in winning competitions.
Tuesday we went to our timeshare presentation early in the morning then shopped at Costco for food. Our hotel room had a kitchen and we planned on doing most of our cooking. Later that night we went to a Fiesta later that evening. It was all you can eat and the food was delicious. There was a pinata for the young ones but Davin fell asleep. There was dancers and other activities for everyone to enjoy. Jeff and Atessa went up on stage and Jeff won the competition for the night. That put us at 3 for 3. We were on a roll.
Wed. everyone but Aren, Davin, & I went 4-wheeling on the beach. Then we took a glass bottom taxi boat to Lovers Beach. The boys snorkeled and the girls played in the sand with Davin. He loved it. When we got back we played in the pool at the hotel. That night we walked the town and and went down to the pier. That is where the mall is. It reminded me of Vegas.
Thursday Jeff, Aren, Davin, & I went on a sunset cruise around the bay and saw sea lions, ate delicious fajitas, and enjoyed the sunset. A sea lion followed the boat back into the bay and when we got off the boat Aren almost got to pet it. 
Friday we drove to the other side of town where the Pacific Ocean is and the boys went surfing. The girls enjoyed sipping from coconuts while Davin slept and then we met up with the boys, ate lunch and watched them surf some more. It looked fun and I hope I can try it next time.
Saturday Jeff & Aren rented wave runners and played around the bay. When they came back it was my turn to enjoy myself. I went to the spa and was pampered with a manicure, pedicure, & facial. Ahhh it was relaxing. After we hung out at the pool and played pool volleyball and Aren entered a ping pong tournament and won.
Sunday we did all of our souvenir shopping and had a one last dinner with everyone.
Monday we packed and had our last meal at the hotel restaurant then headed to the airport. I was sad. We were all sad. I really miss the warm weather, laying out by beautiful beach, and the nice people. We will be going back for sure. We got home Monday night around 9:30pm. What a great trip.
