This was the first picture taken on the trip, and is one of my favorites. I have no idea why we are judging Pamsky so harshly, but we are...or something was going on behind her.
Devoin and I were psyched about our digs. We stayed at the Grand Mayan Resort, which was awesome and very plush.
The next morning we checked out the grounds and the beach. Beach? Check. Pools? Check. White bodies to burn? Checkalicious.
I love the ocean and I like to make others like it with me.
This is the Lazy River. We would eventually spend about 10 hours of our vacation going around and around on this river. I love this picture because it captures what our vacation to Mexico was all about.
Some of you may know that the Mulcock clan has had a weight loss tracking chart going on for about 2 years now. Pamsky shows off the fruits of her dieting labor. 
Beefsquee was most concerned about the paparazzi seeing her, even way down in P.R. I guess there is a gossip magazine for dental hygeinists and she is front page material. 
We decided to head down to downtown Puerto Vallarta (our hotel was actually in Nuevo Vallarta). We took the bus, like any respectable vacation family would do.
P.R. definitely had an old vibe going, not new school like Cancun. It has also been heavily hit by the aftermath of a VERY slow travel season thanks to American's ridiculous fear of swine flu. But it made good for a great family picture.
The locals had some solid sand sculpting skills - I will give them that.
This is my new High School Year Book photo. 
So after the high school yearbook photo, it started to ran like a banshee. So we hoofed it quickly over to a restaurant called Pipi's. We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed our guacamole.
The parentals were super duper pleased to have the whole family there with them. We decided to tell the waitress that it was Michelle's birthday, so they celebrated the following way:
Not only did they wipe cake on her face, but they gave her some "tequila for kids" - which is tequila without alcohol (I noticed they had prepared real tequila for her while she was in the bathroom and so I told them to tone it down for her).
Man, it burns going down, right beesquee?
Even on her fake birthday, beesquee will share her tequila for kids with the family. And her cake.More on Mexico to come!
Pammy Poo is crying in this picture for the good reason, not the bad reason. I think she has wanted to be a grandma for quite a while, what do you think? Also, she wants someone she can shower her love on that won't be sarcastic and smartallicky back to her. It helped that I told her on Mother's Day in person while I was in Kentucky.
For Big D's birthday we gave him a personalized t-shirt that says "Mi Nombre Es Papa D." Considering we call dad Big D, we thought it was fitting that his grandchildren call him Papa D. His t-shirt came wrapped in a sandwich style paper with a bag of chips and a receipt! He didn't give me a tip though...
And this is about the lamest face I think I can make. Also, I love my t-shirt (side note). Also, what is with Pamsky's hand around my waist? It looks like it is my hand, but it is hers. This picture is just all around weird to me. 
And what we have found is that apartment hunting is not fun. The ones you want you can't afford. This is Bear checking out a dream apartment that is $250 to expensive per month.
Did I tell you that Sandrina and Skinny Good Lookin' Reid were there? (Devin's parents). I hadn't seen them in ages. We always get along smashingly...except when I break their china while doing the dishes. Our first activity was to hit the Kentucky Horse Park.
Why are we engaged in such a gentlemanly handshake? Look closer at the seal behind us...
Divided we fall people - so lets not get divided.
We first went to the Hall of Champions where we got to see some old Kentucky Derby winners. This is proof that the Kentucky Horse Park has horses.
Beefsquee petted some horsies that took us around the park in a carriage ride. They were tender to her and loved her kind petting.
Apparently Beefsquee and I are not nearly as strong as those horses. We are actually quite weak sauce.
Big D really wanted to mount this horse (we didn't have the heart to tell him it was just a statue).
The History of the Horse Museum gave us an extensive knowledge about horses and their roll in the world from the beginning of man. Seriously people - this was a Guggenheim-sized museum about horses.
Later we got really excited about these huge chairs. What else do you do when a pair of gigantic chairs are presented to you on a beautiful day?
Our next item of business was Michelle's graduation. Here is the standard graduation shot. And here are the standard graduation videos - but this one involves me with a squeaky toy that got the audience to laugh.
Apparently when you are graduating from dental hygiene you have to be creative and put teeth on your caps.
Hooray! Yah!
Michelle and her hygiene peeps and Michelle and Devoin. 
Beefsquee and I value edumacation and learning stuffs.
We celebrated as Skinny Good Lookin' Reid took us to Johnny Carinos. I thoroughly enjoyed my lasagna.
Big D enjoyed his multiple cheese deliciousness. Pam and D are lookin' really cute these days together in my opinion. It was a great celebration.
The next day after church we took some stellar Pam and Beefsquee in gowns graduation photos. Such sass - bolstered by mental prowess.
They did it people...they finally did it.
In the end, I had to leave them. This brought them tears of sadness to their hearts. Fortunately we will be together again (this time with Caitlin - hooray!!!) on vacation next week. Congrats you two smart goobers.
