Our Mexican Riviera Cruise

In October of 2007 we went on a cruise to the Mexican Riviera over our 4 year anniversary. We went with my parents and two other couples. This is a video that I made from pictures taken by all four couples. Just in case you wanted to know, the two songs are "Fly Away" by Lenny Kravitz and "Cumbia de los Muertos" by Ozomatli.

A few explanations:

The guy jumping off the rocks into the river was at a restaurant called Chico's Paradise. This was the view from where we were eating.

The video of two people just eating is the Mildenhalls trying Escargot.

The two guys in the green and red stripes are Chatree and Vuiche from the Philippines. They were our waiters at dinner every night on the cruise.

There's a few pictures of school children and then a picture of me, a lady, and my dad with a blurry face. When we were in El Rosario we went to a school and donated supplies.

I don't even remember what they called it, but the flaming cake that you see in the food section was the most amazing dessert I have ever eaten.

Enjoy...

Nice slideshow. I remember some of those pictures when Jena showed them to me. I love cruises and want to go on another one someday (either Mediterranean or Eastern Carribean). So, did you guys try the Escargot?
That would be "Baked Alaska"....

That was fun to see all those pictures. I have only seen a few before now. Mexico seems kinda scary to me. But I would love to go on a cruise someday. Great job on that video.

Playlist Fun

I thought this would be a cool idea, and a chance for me to brag about how awesome we are ;) I decided to create a playlist that only had bands on it that either Jena or I (or both) have seen in concert. So you are now listening to this playlist. Here is a little information to go along with the playlist: It only includes bands that we wanted to see, it doesn't include opening bands (unless we really liked them). You will notice that there is more than 1 song for a few of the bands. This reflects how many times we have seen them live. (Yes, I have seen Red Hot Chili Peppers 3 times, and I will see them again if I have the chance.) I refused to include songs from 2 of the concerts that Jena has been to, for personal reasons. These concerts are Garth Brooks and The Dixie Chicks. The first concert I ever went to was in 8th grade and it was Jimmy Page and Robert Plant. You know, from Led Zeppelin. I took my dad to see Deep Purple for Father's Day a few years back. Smoke on the Wate...

Our Everyday Life: Weeks 15-21

Where do I begin?! A lot has happened in the few short weeks that I haven't blogged. We unexpectedly moved back to Utah! Not only Utah, but our old hometown. **** Before we moved back to Utah, we visited family in Utah for Thanksgiving. Creating hand turkeys with Mema for thanksgiving. Jordis was quite positive that we couldn't see her. Barber Family Photo! I think he's pretty handsome... Boy band shot. All the grand kids.  We made candy sleds to race at GG's house with some of Jordis' cousins.  ****    We frequently head to the Harley store as a form of entertainment. Jordis could ride on this rocking  Harley all day. Notice that she HAS to wear gloves while riding. We had one last get together with some of our really good friends in Twin before we left. Visiting someones house that they decorate their entire yard and ...
