Day 140 - aka "I'm so excited I could pee my pants"

Finally another post! I haven't had a lot of time recently - too much to do and not enough time to do it in (and honestly not much to write about!). However . . . . I do happen to have some exciting news today! Chris and I booked a vacation for my 30th "Champagne" birthday this year!!!!

I knew I wanted to do something big, and we've been talking about going away on a real "lay on the beach" kind of vacation since before we got married, so . . . Mexico here we come!

We've booked a week-long stay at an all-inclusive resort in Xpu-Ha in the Mayan Riviera. It's called the "Catalonia Royal Tulum", and it's apparently on one of the most pristine, gorgeous beaches not only on the Caribbean coast side of Mexico, but in the entire Caribbean! It's an 18+ hotel, but isn't at all a party hotel, which suits us just fine as we're looking for a really quiet, relaxing vacation. The reviews I've read have been fabulous, and one word people keep using in their reviews to describe it is "zen". As we both need a little "zen" right now, it seems to be right up our alley. I think I've looked up every single picture and video that's available about this place on the net, and as the title of this blog states - I'm pretty much so excited I could pee my pants! Neither one of us has ever been to Mexico or done an all-inlusive vacation before, so to be able to stay at a place that looks this nice, on a beach that looks this incredible, is pretty cool.

We don't leave until Easter, so I still have over 2 months to go, but it'll give me something to look forward too (and make turning 30 not so bad) - plus, it'll give me a really good reason to exercise and start taking better care of myself!! Yay for vacations!!
