Chichen Itza in the Yucatan

We drove in the jungle of the Yucatan to the Mayan ruins. Chichen Itza is one of the 8 wonders of the world and it is pretty incrediable. It was one of the hottest days ever but it was well worth the trip.



Diving in Cozumel

We went to Cozumel for a couple of days to get in some awesome diving. This was Zach first time ocean diving since he was certified earlier this year. He did really great, we saw seahorses, swam through thousands of jelly fish and as you can see we came up close and personal to 3 sharks and some really large Eagle Rays.. Zach got a little to up close for me but they are nurse sharks and they do not usually attack.

Cancun

This last August we had the opportunity to go to Cancun for a week and we really loved it! It is really beautiful and there is so much to see and do. They even got me on a Zip Line which I never thought I would ever do. It was a blast! We also went diving a lot, more pictures to come of that.

The Phantom of the Opera



We met Brandon and Katie in Las Vegas and went and saw The Phantom of the Opera is was awesome.  I had seen it previously but seeing it in Vegas where they built the theatre in the theme of the Phantom where it looks just like the Theatre Christine performs at really adds to the performance.  They also shortened the play and I thought it was better that way.  It was Zach's first time  and he really loved it.

Got Sushi?

Brandon was in town for a few days so Monday night we went to Got Sushi?  Since we know the owner she kept bringing out all of these fabulous dishes for us to try.  I don't eat sushi so the chef came and cooked my dinner right at the table you know where the big grill is in the middle.  It was really fun, here are the guys eating all the good stuff.

Don't mess with me!!


Jeff took me to the shooting range with a patient of ours, Ron that goes there all the time and I got to shoot at the targets just like you see on the cop shows, where you pin them up and send them out.  We even had to wear the goggles and earphones.   And I did really good!  On this new target you can see all my 10 shots are right in the middle of the body.  Like I said DON'T MESS WITH ME!  It was really fun, I might even have to get my own gun and start practicing all the time. 


Happy New Year!!


We had a really fun New Years Eve, we went to Todd and Kelli's  and ate and ate and ate and played games and rocked out on Rock Band.  Zach even got lucky on Left, Center Right dice game he won the big jackpot!  Let's hope for a great 2009.
