Jim and I just returned from our vacation to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico!It was a BLAST! We went with our friends-three other couples--Dara and Zach, Brandon and Susan, and Pat and Stacy. We did a beach trip with friends a couple years ago to Cabo and it was so fun we had to do it again....thus the theme for this trip...."Let's do it again in 2010!" haha!
We stayed at the Golden Crown Paradise Resort and it was FABULOUS!
It was all-inclusive with five restaurant choices, snack bar by the pool, bars inside and out, and 24 room service.....and for FREE! I highly recommend doing all-inclusive and this resort was one of the best we have stayed at so far! Plus, it was just a five minute cab ride to the downtown Boardwalk along the ocean for shopping and nightlife. The cab ride cost only $5! SWEET!
We rode jet skis, Susan parasailed but mostly we just played in the ocean, laid on the beach, danced and ate lots of amazing food and drank fruity drinks. ;)
I took a TON of pictures but will share with you my favorites!!!

Each night, after playing in the sun we would get dressed up for dinner and meet at the poolside bar and take pictures of each other! ;)

Cheers to VACATION!!!
After dinner at each restaurant, they served "Sexy Coffee". What is sexy coffee you ask?
Well, they do a presentation by your table beginning with heating Kahlua in a dish until it gets really thick-like chocolate syrup. Then they put sugar and cinamon on the rim of a glass and pour the Kahlua in the glass while it is on fire! Then they add coffee, brandy and top it with some whipped cream! DELICIOUS!
Sexy Coffee and Mocha Cake! YUMMY!
Each night, we would head to the bar on the beach and have a couple drinks, tell stories, and we even met several other couples we hung out with too!
Brandon and Zach became "besties" this trip. ;)
The first evening, we had some beach "entertainers" come by and sing. Brandon decided to join in after taking a late night dip in the ocean.
I even took some video with my camera...

On Saturday, we spent most of the day at the beach enjoying the sun and the waves!
And my vacation pictures would not be complete without a picture of my feet. ;)
Stacy and Dara lounging on the beach
Susan jumped on the chance to go parasailing!
I got on the boat and took pictures of Susan flying through the air!
After dinner on Saturday night, we headed to the Boardwalk in downtown Puerto.
We enjoyed dancing at the Hilo Bar!
The whole gang!
On Sunday, Susan and I headed to go shopping at check out the Boardwalk during the daylight hours while our guys went golfing. Dara and Zach did a shopping tour and Pat and Stacy checked out the stores around the hotel....like the Mexican Wal-Mart and Sam's Club!
The flea market
Some Boardwalk pics....
The town on Puerto...
Beautiful flowers everywhere!
And here is a picture of Jim at one of the holes at the Nicklaus and Weiskopf courses.
Sunday night was our last night in Puerto. We ate at the French restaurant and it was very good! And of course....more sexy coffee. ;)
What an AMAZING trip that produced some great phrases and one liners like..."let's do this!", "pack the pants" and "Hollywood!!!"...all with their own inside jokes and funny stories behind them. ;)
Brandon, Susan, Dara, Zach, Stacy and Pat.... WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
