Cancun, Tulum, Playa Del Carmen and Bacalar

In February we went to the Yucatan Peninsula for a wedding and to visit Lise's aunt. We spent a few nights in Cancun, in Tulum for the wedding, a night in Playa Del Carmen, a few nights in Bacalar, and then back to Cancun for a few extra nights. The weather was great, wedding was wonderful, and we had a great time visiting family and meeting new friends.

Just getting to go was an adventure. Lise needed a special travel document that we got about 24 hours before our flight out. The Chickfila was just a celebratory lunchFirst night in Cancun

Fall and Winter... mostly pictures

I am going to do a quick (once a week) series of posts to have sort of a life update for myself. These will mostly be photos because I don't feel like writing all that much.

September 2013 - Lise moved to Colorado with me, we moved into our new apartment, and got married. Pretty big month for us. Also, Lise's mom came to visit.
 Moving in on the top floor was interesting

We had a great time jet-skiing with Bruce George and exploring Austin
