Our Mexican Riviara Cruise!

This Last week we were lucky enough to go on a wonderful cruise down to Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas! It was so great to be in warm weather and i was completely enthralled with the large ship! We absolutely loved it!

While we were in Mazatlan we went Pair-a-sailing! I have to say it was on my list of coolest things I've done in my lifetime! Matty loved it too but for him the landing wasn't so lucky! While coming down on the beach the Mexican helpers say "They will just catch you just leave your feet up" (Looking at them they didn't look like Hercules) .....But i went first and they caught me like champs, it was easy and graceful! But for Matty it didn't go so well... check it out...




I am not exactly sure how he got so much bounce from his butt while hitting the sand but dang was I impressed! I wanted to yell "SCORE" Way to go Honey! We are just glad no one was hurt!

While in Cabo we found the most gorgeous beach and funny that it was named Lovers Beach~ It is in a small cove/canyon in the rocks! Matt loved playing in the 10+ foot waves of course and couldn't get enough of them! It also gave me a heart attack watching!

My favorite part of Puerto Vallarta was a baby donkey i found right when we got of the ship! Her name was Chickita and she was so soft and cuddly! I wanted to bring her home but Matt said we didn't have anywhere to put her so i couldn't! If any of you are looking for some good gift ideas for me here's one... A Infant Mexican Ass!
And last but not least THE FOOD. For any of you who know Matt and I you know that besides The Sun, A beach and each other we love food more then anything! So being on a ship in the sun on water why not add that we got all you can eat any food 24/7! Littraly.. If you want pizza and soft serve at 3 in the morning its there for you every night, just ask Matty! But yet he still cant figure out how he gained 8 pounds in that one week! Humm...

Our Honeymoon!

Matt and i went to ARUBA for a week on our wonderful honeymoon! Aruba is a southern island in the Carribean! It was gorgeous! Through the place we stayed we got a private island that couldnt have been more neat! On the island they had pink flamingos and iguanas that just rome! Another one of the craziest things was the price of food, but other then that it was Amazing! If you havent ever been to Aruba it is a wonderful place to visit and relax!

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful but crazy 1st Christamas! On Christmas eve Mark (matts dad) and Matt and i all went up to brighton to snowboard (this made for a sore Christmas) We did alot of short travles back and forth between familes(which we are greatful we live close enough to both that its possible! ) Christmas eve we went to the Allens to portray the the nativity!(Matt as the wiseman, of course)

family party and then to the Rudd Family party and then Back for a Lloyd family party. There we all got matching p.j.s! Which actually turned out to be quit the fashion show and soon turned into a photo shoot! If you know anything about the Lloyd family you can picture how crazy it became!

Then Christmas we had Christmas morning with the Francis family and then to the Lloyd family to open more great gifts! Then back to the Francis(my in-laws) for some fun then to the Lloyd (my dads family) Party and then later that night to a wonderful movie with the Francis' family (my in-laws)! Yes.. you can say a crazy but perfect 1st christmas!

Our Wedding Day

Matt and I where married in the Salt Lake Temple! It was the most perfect day! Our luncheon was a the Joseph Smith Memorial building and it was so wonderful, being surrounded with our family and closest friends! The food was fantastic and the company was even better! That night we then had our Reception (i call it a Party) at the most Faboulas place, the Bungelow! Our day coudnt have been more perfect and it was more then we could have asked for!
