Last Things First! Usually this would be the end of my review but let’s get it out of the way right off the bat: Hyatt Ziva Cancun is the best resort we’ve ever stayed at! I mean, based on Ziva’s overall Trip Advisor rating (#6 out of ~200 Cancun hotels when I booked the trip, […]

Friday Fun Link – What I Did On My Winter Vacation
Sasha and I visited her classroom earlier this week to share a bit about some of the animals we saw during our Mexico vacation.
Music Monday – “Away from these memories, my life I must spend/Adios amigo, adios my friend”
Back from a one week all-inclusive holiday (even from blogging if you can believe it!) but lots to start catching up on – a review of our resort for sure (last year, it took me three weeks to cobble together a review of our resort – I wonder if I’ll be quicker this year?) Also […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #4 – Travel
Not sure if I’ll end up blogging much when we’re in Mexico next week but I thought making “travel” #4 in this series would be a good way to head into our holiday either way. The funny part is that my love of travel actually starts from a weird piece of family trivia – I […]
10 Things That Make You A Bad All-Inclusive Guest
I had the idea for this list after a couple experiences at the Moon Palace last year and in researching it further, I see I’m not the only one with the idea. So below is a list of my own observations but which overlaps in many ways with some of the articles I’ve found that […]
Happy 40th Birthday, Shea!
It’s hard to believe that you and I have been together for more than half of your life. Thanks for all the great times, good memories and two gorgeous kids. I can’t wait to continue the birthday celebrations one week from today in Mexico! Love you!!!
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #3 – Books
If I’m doing a list of the 10 things that had the strongest influence in who I’ve become at the midpoint of my life, it’s telling that the thing I jump to as the third most influential thing in my entire life, after family and after friends, is books. In fact, I could probably do […]
Congrats Michelle and Adam! (aka Mexican Wedded Bliss Is Better Than Mexican Prison Stress!)
You know you’ve exhausted every possible video on YouTube about your upcoming all-inclusive resort when you start delving into the whole sub-genre of wedding videos – glossy, professionally shot montages of all the expected scenes – the wedding party getting ready while drinking mimosas, the close-up of the rings, the awkward speeches. Okay, I have […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? #2 – My Friends
In last week’s post, I said your parents are your first formative influence who give you so many of your basic life lessons and core moral code. If that’s the case, I feel like your friends are the ones who exist to test, question and expand that moral code as you grow. Your friends are […]
Happy Anniversary, Shea!
I look forward to raising a toast with you in Mexico in a couple weeks (preferably champagne, not tequila!)
