Playa Del Carmen

Scott and I were lucky enough to be able to get away for the week.
Destination? Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.

It did not disappoint. My Chicken Chile Crepes were just as scrumptious as I remembered.
And so was Scott's....I have no idea what his dish was...heart attack on a plate????

This trip couldn't have come at a more perfect time. Just two weeks before we left, we found out that this vacation was going to be a ....

We couldn't be more excited! This little surprise will be joining our family on Thanksgiving Day!
