Mexico for the holidays

My husband and I went on vacation with his family for the holidays. It is always so nice to get away from reality and just focus on relaxing! We vacationed in Cancun and had a really nice time. We didn't do too much exploring since I have only been off of crutches for a couple of weeks, but I still did a ton activities. We snorkeled with turtles (which was a huge accomplishment for me since swimming has not been an option for me b/c of my hips and shoulders), checked out several Mexican markets, walked on the beach!, and even visited the beach we got married on in Playa del Carmen. I still can't believe it has been almost 2 years since we got married. Looking back it is kind of funny now, we were actually on our honeymoon in Mexico when my symptoms began. I had been working out with a trainer 3 x a week and probably worked out almost everyday leading up to the wedding. Since we had a destination wedding, I wanted to make sure I looked decent in my bikini LOL. So, i was doing a ton of squat jumps each day which i think lead to the final tearing of my labrum while running around on the beach. My husband is such an amazing man. He has been my #1 supporter through all of this. I am glad he was able to cut loose on vacation this past week....pretty sure he needed a vacation more than I did! Poor guy has had to take care of me these past 2 years!
