VIRGINIA!!

We finally made it to Virginia and we have gotten all settled into our apartment. We got up early Friday morning and said our goodbyes and headed off for our long road trip. We thought we could take turns driving and sleeping but that didnt go too well and we ended up sleeping at a hotel a little after 16 hours of driving. We slept for a few hours and got up and continued the journey. We finally got to Herndon VA at about 2 am Sunday morning. It was a long trip but we got to see a lot of neat things. Our apartment is cute and we have had a lot of fun putting it all together. Our families are both far away and so I know they are curious to see what our new apartments looks like so I thought I would post some pictures to cure the curiosity :).

HONEYMOON!!


We went to Salt Lake for the weekend. We stayed at the Little America and we ended up celebrating easter there! We packed our bags and our easter baskets that we had for eachother weighed too much to fit into our suitcases so we had easter a little early. I gave Caden DANCES WITH WOLVES and a sweet squirt gun and he gave me a bunch of candy and some cute flip flops! 

We flew to Cancun Monday morning. We got there that afternoon and it was so warm! We were so excited to feel the warm air. It felt so good. We had so much fun. We ate a lot of different food. Caden fell in love with the fajitas there. I think he ordered room service 4x the first two days just for the chicken fajitas. 


We spent alot of the time shopping and hanging out at the swimming pool. We got to go to XEL-HA and go snorkeling. We went to the flea market a few times and I fell in love with their apple juice. If anyone ever gets a change to go to Cancun get JAMEX apple juice in the little blue cartons. Its amazing. 




We had so much fun in Mexico. Thanks Doug and Peggy for putting together such a fun trip for us!! We will blog more once we get to Virginia...
