La Pura Vida

Costa Rica was a marvelous destination for our honeymoon! It is rich in greenery, the people are friendly, and the beaches are beautiful.

Before we jetted off - first class! - we attended a brunch hosted by Ryan's grandparents & aunt and uncle the morning after the wedding. Everything was lovely and delicious!

The only photo I could snag at the brunch the morning after the wedding!

An Official Honeymoon!

It didn't take much thought to decide upon a honeymoon destination. I've never done the obligatory Mexican resort route and Ryan's fave vacay is Cabo. So we decided to combine the best of both worlds and go with an all-inclusive resort in one of the most beautiful places in Mexico.

Ryan and I got to book our honeymoon flights today! We'll be flying first class to Cabo San Lucas two days after our wedding. We'll get to enjoy five nights at a resort and enjoy being newlyweds! None of this would be possible without the generous support of my 'Ma & Pa.' (Yes, ever since reading Little House On The Prarie I've called my parents Ma & Pa).  Thank you, thank you, thank you, Ma & Pa! We hope to take you on a celebratory trip together one day as a thank you for providing a honeymoon for us!!!!
