Puerto Vallarta
Every year Jason's family goes on a big family trip. Last year I got to hang out with J when his family went to Hawaii and we were there for our girls trip. I was so excited when I got to go this year and am excited to continue yearly trips with the Pluims. It was so fun to be with the family and get to know them even better! I am so excited to marry into such a fun and loving family!! Mike kept us busy and full! It was such a great trip! It was a little too humid to lay out so I didn't get as much color as I wanted but it was so fun without all the relaxing by the pool! The hotel was perfect! Air conditioned and huge!! Thanks Grump and Colleen!! Sorry there are a lot of pics!!
Deep Sea Fishing
We went deep see fishing the second day. Let's just say I will never go again and neither will the other girls. It started super early in the morning, Jenny was being nice and brought food..bananas...guess they are bad luck to have on a boat, so us gals hurried and ate them all up....they became bad luck to us..... Jenny and Colleen both got super sea sick. I got a little queezy but slept most the time besides when I woke up in sweat puddles from it being so flinging hot!!
I'm glad I can say I went deep sea fishing but to be honest if I would have known exactly what it entailed, you couldn't have paid me to go. I thought it would be so fun to go out in the ocean, get some good rays, sit there talking to the family with my own fishing pole waiting for a fish to want my bait where I would real it in and be so excited to eat if for dinner. DEFINATELY NOT how it goes. The owners of the boats run the show you sit there for six hours while the boat is going the whole time with 8 lines out all at once attached to the boat. You don't do anything until a fish bites. Luckily one did and J got to get in the captain chair and reel it in. It was so exciting for about twenty minutes then I was bored again. I loved seeing how happy J was when he caught the fish, unfortunately it wasn't the best tasting fish and too big to take home so the fisherman got to keep the prize! What a day!!
6 am wake up!! but.....

Canopy ZIPLINE!!!
we got to do the Mexico zipline! Jas and I hate heights!! So this was a big moment for us. The highest zipline was 750 ft high! 1400 feet long! NEVER AGAIN!! It was so fun though and we starting loving it after a few lines. It was nice and cool in the forest, not as humid as we were use to.
SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS!!! WOOP WOOP!!!
I have always dreamt of swimming with dolphins!! I was so excited to hear that my soon to be sissy in laws shared the same dreams!! It was an amazing hour and a half that I will never forget!! First we got to meet the sea lions (I can't remember their names) we got a kiss on the cheeck (don't tell J but their kisses were much softer than his) I think I got slight tongue on my cheeck. After that great experience we got to swim with our dolphins. At first we thought we had to share with other people but no one else got the package we did so the three of us got the two all by ourselves!! We felt like little girls on Christmas morning! SO FUN!!!

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!
Jason ate this!! The whole thing!!! For those of you who don't know my husband to be is THE PICKIEST EATER!!! He will not eat any type of vegatable except pea's and corn... So to eat this Pico.. UNBELIEVABLE!!! And to top it off he squeezed LIME all over it!! Again if you don't know J does not eat fruit, except oranges. I had to document it so close friends and family would believe me!
