OUR CABO TRIP!!!

WOW! I can't believe I waited so long to post a note about our trip to Cabo! Things have been a little crazy around here.

Well - the last week of June we spent in Cabo with the 2009 International Royalty. What an AMAZING time we had. The hotel was all inclusive and the little ones loved being able to get something to eat or drink whenever. =) The big girls LOVED the beach. Not only for the sun and sand but for the traveling mall that wandered past every few minutes. =) Shopping and sunbathing at the same time - does it get any better?

The hotel also had a kids club with activities for the little ones along with their own private waterpark and waterslides. Kennedy and Sydnee spent most of their first full day in the kids club... until... Kennedy had a little accident. She fell on the slide and broke her 2 front teeth! I am NOT even kidding. And it wasn't a little chip either. She broke off HALF of her front left tooth. I would post a picture but I don't think Kennedy would like that. She only broke off about 1/3 of her right tooth... but either way - she is missing a lot of her PERMANENT TEETH! There was a lot of blood and a lot of tears.. but the big girls came with Kennedy to the Hotel Dr office and that made her feel a lot better. The Dr didn't think there was nerve damage - but just to be safe I called a dentist... he felt the same way. We got Kennedy some wax so she could go to dinner that night and not be so worried about it.... The next day we went into town to a local dentist and had a temporary filling placed on the tooth. If you look close you can tell there is something wrong with her teeth... but from a few feet away you can't really tell. This does mean several visits to the dentist though. We had 2 on the monday after our return and we have another apt tomorrow to check. Kennedy was having some pain so they thought there might be nerve damage after all - so the dr's are monitoring that...

Back to the trip...The morning before the dentist we went with the royalty on a boat ride. We saw "Lovers Beach", the Arch and a bunch of sea lions. The girls really enjoyed that. Then Kennedy and I went to the dentist while the rest had some lunch and enjoyed some shopping. The rest of our time was spent on the beach or in the pool - enjoying the warmth of the sun and each others company.

Finally on the last day, Sydnee, Donna, Kennedy and I all had a later afternoon trip, so we had time to squeeze in one extra activity - Swimming with the dolphins!!! Kennedy and Sydnee got right in the water with the dolphins. They got to pet, dance with, kiss and RIDE on the dolphin! That was definately the highlight of the trip!

Now we are back home and busy busy busy preparing for the International pageant. I can't believe it is less than two weeks away! We are SO excited to attend the international pageant and see all of our cindy friends, but so sad this amazing year is coming to an end.

Take care and safe travels everyone!!!
