Cabo Wabo

Let me give you a quick recap of the last week of summer when we went to CABO!!!

It was one of the best trips we have ever been on and I can't thank my parents enough for taking us. We would recommend Cabo to anyone and everyone it was amazing and we can't wait to go back.

I will give you a play by play via photos!

We made it!

Day #1: Church, laying out, and lots of pictures!

Day #2: The boys went deep sea fishing. So we swam in the morning and then walked to the marina/took an adorable spongebob painted water taxi to go meet them and see what they caught!

Day #3: Dallas and I went Parasailing and it was so much fun!! Dallas brought his GoPro for the trip and it was a highlight of the trip! We were able to get so many fun videos and photos. He is working on his editing skills so a possible trip vid coming soon!

Day #4: The day we made our homemade Pollyanna board! Swimming, football on the beach, and lots of pics!

Day #5: We took a water taxi over the the rocks you see in the background of all our pictures. On one side is Lovers Beach and the other is Divorce Beach haha. We got to snorkel and Max and Dallas were brave and jumped off this huge rock!

Day #6: I am not sure if this pic was even this night but my Dad had the mariachi band come play at our dinner table every night. the same song. every night. It was called Camisa Negra. Go look it up it is pretty good but I got embarrassed.

Day #7: Denial we had to come home. Don't worry though Cabo we will be back soon!

Done and Done.

Ok.... So this project started about 6 months ago. AND IT IS FINALLY DONE!!!

When we bought our place a year ago we knew there were several things that definitely needed to get remodeled. The first on our list was our master bathroom. It was so scary. Neither of us even wanted to shower in the shower scary. We decided to try to do as much of this project on our own (meaning Dallas and his dad Kelly) as possible.

I am not kidding when I say everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. So like I said it was for sure a learning experience for us.

I was so proud of Dallas for getting this thing done and felt an overwhelming amount of love from our extended family throughout the whole process. The list of names we owe thanks to is endless... Dallas's dad Kelly especially, and his grandpa Lynn, and his uncle Mike, and his brother Kimball, and all those other family members that lent us tools... Like I said the list is endless.

We are so happy it is finally done, Let me know how you guys think it turned out.

And for any remodeling tips... don't ask us. Haha. We still have no clue what we are doing.

Oh and just a forewarning... Dallas and I are not interior decorators or have any prior experience with remodeling a bathroom... we like to pretend we are because we love watching Flip or Flop and Vegas Flipping and let's get real any TV show on HGTV. So if you have any advice for us... please pass it along. :)

BEFORE

Ok so it was not this scary to begin with... but close. At this point when I remembered to take the before picture we had taken off the shower walls and the mirror.
