Hola from the Riviera Maya!

After what was a crazy 2 month stretch that included the move from Maine to Virginia and deploying, we just returned from a much needed vacation to a resort in the Riviera Maya for 8 nights. This is a stretch of Mexico south of Cancun and north of the Belize border. We went on this trip with Melanie, Brad, Roman, and Brad's parents. Tatum and Roman love each others' company and we all had a very relaxing trip with a lot of sun, some alcohol, and plenty of food!

Tatum also enjoyed the assortment of animals on the resort grounds that included peacocks, parrots, turkeys, fish, turtles, flamingos, and these strange monkey/rodent creatures! Here is a video of Tatum feeding one of the peacocks in the lobby of the hotel.
