Yeah, Mon, Jamaica!

A long time ago, we decided that for our 10-year anniversary, we would actually go on a trip. We hadn't been away together since before Charlotte was born. Plus, our last vacation was a trip to an all-inclusive resort for a friend's wedding. It would've been really awesome had I not been pregnant and puking the whole time. (It's a good thing Charlotte's cute!)

We were originally going to head to Hawaii, because even though Cory had been, I hadn't. But, once we started looking at prices, we decided to try somewhere else. Hawaii is expensive! We found a deal on Costco's Travel site (Did you even know they had a travel site? Because I didn't.) for an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica. Considering I was most looking forward to sleeping and hanging out under an umbrella on a beach, Jamaica was as good as Hawaii to me. Beach? Check. Umbrella? Check.

The deal we found was for six days and five nights. It sounds like enough time, but when you count two whole days of travel, it really was too short. Aunt Amber came up from Texas and stayed at our house to watch the girls. They had a great time and absolutely did not miss us.

There's not much to write about the trip. I slept a ton. Cory ate a ton. I read six books. Cory drank a lot of mudslides. It was pretty fabulous. I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves:

We just arrived in Jamaica!
First thing I did? Put my feet in the ocean.

First thing Cory did? Find a pizza.
