Mexico

We made it home from our first family trip to Mexico!  We had about 6 hours of travel time in a plane, and Violet did pretty well for her first long distance trip.  On the way down, someone even commented about what a mellow little girl we had, and how good she was.  The only lesson learned is that it is better to travel during the morning, than late at night.
She loved the beach and ate tons of sand and sea water.  I tried over and over to stop this, but each time I said no, she just laughed at me and put more in her mouth.  Rebellion at it's finest.
The funniest thing about Mexico was the reaction to Violet, women, men, and children would walk up to her and touch her cheeks.  I had never seen this done before, but seriously we couldn't go anywhere without people wanting to touch her.  At first I was leery of it, then realized that this was a compliment, and they only wanted to touch her.  She of course milked up the attention, and now can't go anywhere without hamming it up.   We have created a monster.
Here are some of my favorites pictures, and you can view all of them HERE
