Dolphin Kisses – Last June in Mexico #WordlessWednesday #travel
Last year we were lucky to attend a Puerto Vallarta, Mexico media trip together. Our family has travelled a few times since and this dolphin excursion that Payton and I went on in Puerto Vallarta remains one of the highlights of the last 5 years for my older daughter.

Canopy River Tubing #wordlesswednesday #pvpresstrip

Together we travel often as a family but this was one of our first ever Mother – Daughter Trips. Wordless Wednesday is a photo meme. Link up your recent photos, or a photo that is meaningful to you. Doesn’t have to be as exciting as Canopy River…
