More than cigarette butts and sad donkeys


Although we've lived in Arizona for 6 years, this weekend was our first trip to Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point). I'd always had this dismal picture of my mind of barefoot Mexican babies selling me gum, gross sidewalks covered in butts and sad donkeys painted like zebras waiting for a $10 photo opp. Man, I was right- minus the sweet donkeys. I guess that's a Tijuana thing. We actually had a great time collecting shells, drinking Mexican Coke, laying in the sun and eating waaay too many $1 tacos. Brandon admitted to having at least 10. I don't think my colon could handle more than 4. With the drive being a quick beautiful 4 hour tour of the Sonoran Desert, we'll be heading back soon.


Happy to be shoeless and with Mom and Dad all weekend!



He's smiling because he can't get enough of that sweet Mexican polka music pumping up and down the drag.




Rosy cheeks and a sunset to match.


I left the stroller at home. Brooks didn't seem to mind!



Hermit crabs galore! Maybe I'll start my own Kiosk at AZ Mills.



20 weeks and going strong. It's either a baby bump or a gut full-o-cheese.

Cami -

Glad you found me! I can't believe your memory...it took me a minute to figure out who Cami was. :)I felt a little sheepish explaining to Don why you signed Cami.

Your little guy is too cute and congrats on a second. How fun to have 2 boys!
