What's up with us

Our kitchen is finally done. Actually, it's been done at least a week but I haven't updated it to the blog yet. Mike did a great job on the backsplash. It is travertine tile with accent tiles that are the same granite as the countertops. It looks really nice. In the pictures we didn't have all the outlet covers yet (they are travertine also) but they are all on there now.




In other exciting news, we have decided on Cabo San Lucas for our anniversary trip this year. We are going October 22-28 and staying at the Riu all-inclusive hotel. We plan on doing some deep sea fishing and maybe some diving and lots of relaxing by the beach and pools. And my cousin and her husband might come, too. We are really looking forward to it. October will be very busy for us. We are going to the White Mountains for a mountain bike race the first weekend, Rocky Point the second weekend and then to Cabo. Here is a picture of the hotel:
Can't wait....

Pround new owners of a motorhome

Well, we had thought about buying a new toy hauler for quite a while. But we decided a motorhome would make more sense for us. When we get a boat someday, we can haul it with the motorhome and camp at the lake. And we can take it to the dunes and haul our quads/bike on our flat trailer. We looked at some in Phoenix and were quite disappointed at the condition they were in. We had to get something older so that the price was decent, but we still wanted it to be in good condition. The minute we walked into this one we were really excited about how nice it was inside and how well it had been taken care of. It is smaller than what we were originally looking at but it was also cheaper and in good condition. We wanted something that would sleep "6" (which is really more like 4 adults or 2 adults and 4 kids). But it's just the two of us for now so this is plenty big for us. It has a walk around double or queen (not sure) in the back bedroom part and the dinette folds down into a bed which supposedly sleeps 2 people but really more like 1 adult or 2 kids. We are already thinking of lots of different places we want to go in our motorhome. Here are a few pictures. I don't think they do it justice but you can see what it's like inside.
