fam trip to cancun, mexico!

¡hola!
haha, this mornin in church i almost said "gracias" to the person who handed me a coffee.  i really loved using the little bit of spanish i know with so many gracious mexican people, and seeing everything with both english and spanish on it.  i really liked learning & seeing more spanish.  and you guys, the mexican people we interacted with were so kind, wow.  
anyway, wanted to share some pics i took from this past week while on vacation with my family.  there are quite a few of them, so if pics aren't your thing or you don't care, come back another day (: 
to be honest, i felt a little guilty getting to go on this trip.  it was even slightly hard to accept, considering all the people who don't have anything.  i was very aware of that.  at the very least, i was and am incredibly thankful.  so so thankful.  this trip was a gift i don't deserve.
yeah.  don't know how to transition from that but here are the pics, ha.

oh baby, pure JOY boarding that flight bright & early saturday mornin, in the coldest of cold!  i think it was -14 degrees when we boarded!!  we were so excited.  shoutout to @davehack97 for taking us to the airport in the wee hours of the mornin!

^^ cancun out the window, probably a half hour before landing!  and ^^ mama's face as we stepped off the plane (:

^^ breakfast the first mornin.  oh my gosh.  ya'll know how i feel about breakfast food, right?  and in such a lovely location!

^ dad cooked this beautiful breakfast for us!  he actually cooked for us a lot during the week.  he's the best!

^ sid in front of the ocean.  that ocean is somethin special.  so is sid.

^^ haha, paige's hat.  just a buncha noobs!  

^ you guys.  the ocean was really that beautiful.  i couldn't (can't) get over it!  i love it so much.

dad buddy.  

^ just in case you didn't know where we were (;

pretty paiger.  can't remember the last time we spent so much time together at once!  it's been a while.  i love her.

haha, dad took these pics of me on my favorite day of the trip.  feel a little weird about solo pics sometimes, but captured my joy, i think.  and i love the background.  the day was really that bright & beautiful!

my pretty mama & sisters!

^^ this garden was so beautiful.  like a little slice of heaven.

doesn't it look kinda like jelly??

on our last mornin we took a walk along the beach before packin up.  ^^

​it was a really refreshing time with the fam, and i'm grateful.  the sun felt soo nice, we played more bananagrams than i've ever played in my life, and ate chunky salsa & guacamole with chips for basically every meal (you'd think i'd be sick of it but woahoho you would be wrong).
but i like bein home (:  glad to be back and feel refreshed for a new week.
