We celebrated Makenna's 2nd Birthday & Christmas in Mexico again this year. It was a great, much needed getaway for everyone. Makenna was definitely in her element- she loved the pool, the beach and eating ice cream! It was such a joy to watch her having so much fun. It's so hard to believe our precious little baby is now a sweet little girl. She has been such an incredible blessing to all of us, in so many ways. Her smile can light the darkest days and her amazing hugs give us a piece of Sierra every day. We love you Makenna- Happy 2nd Birthday Sweetie!

She loved the rolling Dora suitcase Gigi got her for her birthday - she had to roll it through the airport- and all by herself of course!

This was how she looked almost the entire vacation, she loved it!
Her best buddy - Uncle Ty!
Our little baby looks so grown up....
The beautiful sunrise on Makenna's birthday
She wore the "Birthday Girl" crown almost all day on her birthday- she got lots of attention :)
See..I'm 2!
We were blessed to have such great friends & family along with us.
The whole restaurant ended up singing Happy Birthday to Makenna, she got a little embarassed (for about 1 minute- then she didn't want it to stop)
She learned this trick from Bella :)
"I'm 2"!!
What a day!
Mmmmm...ice cream is yummy!
We went Xcaret one day- Makenna absolutely loved it. This is a picture of the "Bridge to Heaven". It was truly breath-taking.
Makenna looking at the butterflies- she is folding her hands so she didn't hurt them, so precious.
This was one of her favorites- the Tapir. Her favorite shows are Dora and Diego, so seeing the Tapir, McCaws, and even Jaguar Island- was definitely a highlight of the trip!
She loved the Spider Monkeys too!

Her "boyfriend" Sam (or "Ammy" is what Makenna called him)- she is already a little boy crazy, we are in trouble!
Nap time!
Silly Daddy & Makenna
She has the best facial expressions!

Peek-A-Boo!
Her favorite song right now is "Happy Birthday" - on Christmas, she sang Happy Birthday to Jesus, all day long! It comes out as Happy Jesus - and at the top of her lungs :)

Looks like you all had a wonderful time in Mexico. I thought and prayed for you a lot while you were there and wished the time didn't have to go so fast.
Happy Birthday Makenna.... Love ya!

Love the video! All your pictures are sooo wonderful. What a way to spend your birthday. Makenna is so grown up. It just seemed like yesterday that we were in birth class getting ready for our little ones to arrive. They're not so little any more.
We miss you!

It truly was a wonderful time in Mexico. Makenna of course was the
entertainment. She reminds us
a lot of Sierra when she was little. Always full of energy, fun expressions and the best hugs and smiles. Thanks Dan and Sherrell for our special blessing Makenna.
Love you all soooo much.

Thank you so much for the wonderful time together in Mexico. It is a Christmas we will always remember. Weather was great, hotel was nice but it was you who made our trip so special. "Maya" is forever in our vocabulary. Lets find a way to go to Mexico every month. Thank you again for sharing this special trip with your family. We are blessed to have you in our lives and our hearts.
Love you,
Mick, Barb, Molly and "Ammy"
