We always end up kissing our baby!

IMG_1424 (2) The end to a great day in paradise!

We were lucky to get these pictures!  When we got here, there were about 100 people right where we are standing, but their bus left after about 10 minutes.  We trust strangers with our camera for the most part (you just have to if you want any pictures).  The rule is we have to ask them (vs. the other way around)... we take lots of pics for other couples as well, so it works out great! Let me tell you about these snakes - they go up the entire temple stairs and on the spring and autumn equinox days (twice a year), the shadow from the sun casts an illusion of pyramids going up the body of the snake (it had to be placed perfectly in order for it to do this).  These people were very connected to astronomy and the calendar.

Last night of fun!  We had such a blast in Mexico and hope you enjoyed our photos! IMG_3561

Here are 100 of over thousands of my favorite pictures of you, Mikey!  If I had time to do this post all over again, I could use 100 different pictures several times through and that doesn’t even count the millions of memories that are so dear to me that are mere fleeting moments in time throughout our days together.  You are the best husband and father that could ever have been thought up for me, Noelle, Anna Kate, and Rose.  You know how we tick and how to encourage and strengthen us as a family.  I would not be here today without you; I know you know all of this, it’s just so humbling to try to put your friendship into words.  And although I simply can’t, I hope you always know how treasured and loved you are!  Thanks for being so great… no, thanks for being so awesome!  I love you, Mike Pond!  Happy 33rd Birthday! 

*We need to get our dating, engagement, and wedding pictures on digital files with all of our free time, lol!  I can’t believe we’re old enough for me to even be saying that!  I wonder if anyone can even process the film?  Hahaha!
