Wow, these past few weeks have been full of birthdays, a holiday, and a very fun vacations. First, we celebrated Rhett's birthday. Mom and Dad Maurer met us and all of Amy's family at Justin and Amy's house for dinner. And for dessert Debbie brought a delicious ice cream cake that was to die for.
The following weekend we went over to Grandma and Grandpa Maurer's house. I told Debbie how much I enjoy her ice cream cakes so she made me one for my birthday.
It was soo good. It had caramel, bananas, and pecans. yummmmm.
Then on Thursday, my birthday, Amy came over with the kids and pizza to wish me a happy birthday. 
It was sweet and also nice to have Skye visit with her cousins. She always get so excited when any of her cousins come around.
So, since it was my birthday, I talked with Brandon about celebrating in Mexico. We tried to invite the whole family, but they either live to far away or they had to work on the days we would be gone. Still, Mark, Debbie, Marybeth, Dustin, and Mary's friend Maria were able to make it. We had a
blast. The view could not have been any better. We spent most of the time on the beach or on the porch staring out into the ocean. One day we even saw dolphins. There was at least 5 of them following a school of fish and another five behind them being followed by people on a jet ski. It was beautiful.
It was Skye's first time in Mexico, and on the beach. To be honest, I think she liked it just as much as any of us.
got a new dress, and was spoiled by everyone that went with us.
Also, while in Mexico we were able to celebrate Father's Day. It was Brandon's first Father's Day and it was good to be in a place that he absolutely loves.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.
