Back from Mexico!

May 10, 2011

I’m baaaack!! Holy cow, what a honeymoon. I’ll have you know there came a point, very early on actually, where Chris and I looked at each other and had absolutely no clue as to what day it was. Now that’s a vacation! No laptop or iphone, just simply a camera to capture as many memories as possible. I will definitely be sharing some more with you (loads of turquoise in Mexico, it was amazing!), but this awesome house that we spotted while touring Isla Mujueres on a moped was one of my favorites. Imagine having THAT as your home, and the Caribbean in your back yard! *sigh*

As much as I loved two whole weeks of heart-stopping turquoise water, white sandy beaches, fabulous gourmet meals, yummy pina coladas and (most of all) the company of my new husband 24/7, it is indeed good to be home. 🙂

    YAY!!! So happy for you, and so glad you enjoyed it! I'd go back to Mexico in a heartbeat.

    Exactly what I'd expect to capture your heart in Mexico. I am sure there is so much more you will share with us! Can't wait! Also, my prayer for you and your husband is to ALWAYS put away the world (just as you did on your honeymoon)as much as possible (even if its for a few minutes in a day), and reconnect to the love you have!

    Hi Erin, I was just checking out the Bunkie…so cute, that floor is the perfect color, isn't it?!

    I came across your post about Mexico, I've seen that cute little isla mujeres "igloo" myself a few times! I've also taken pics of it! It's so pretty in it's simplicity, wouldn't you just love to see the inside? Did you buy seashells from the adorable Mexican family down the road? I love Isla Mujeres!

    Congratulations on your wedding!
    xx

    Wow, amazing house! What was the interior look like? That's a lovely igloo! I've never seen this one so beautiful as most of the igloos I see on TV are just built at the North Pole with eskimos living in them.

I’m Erin and I am obsessed with the color turquoise. I started this blog to collect inspirational photos I find of fabulous rooms that feature all of the lovely shades of my favorite color. For even more turquoise, visit my shopping blog Everything Turquoise!
