Originally I was going to go with Raime alone to help her make the drive with their baby because Phil had work in Colorado until the end of June. But then he got a different job so he could leave earlier. Then it became a decision of either being a third wheel, not going, or having Ryan come too. We finally decided to both go the day before We had to leave, so it was a busy day getting lots of laundry done, packing, and arranging for a sitter for Maya the whole time instead of just part of the time (thanks, Mom, Dad, and Holly!!).
We left at about 5 PM on the 4th and drove through the night, arriving in Vegas at 4:15 AM. Ryan was a total stud and drove the entire time (on the way home too!). It helped that we had a good book on tape for him to listen to, but I still hardly slept.
The next 3 days were great. We slept in as late as we wanted to. We ate lots of good food. We had no baby's schedule to work around (well, Vaughn was there but he's totally chill and can adapt easily).
And I even took a few pictures!
It was really fun to get to go on a vacation so last-minute. It was made even better to get to spend it with friends (and who knows when we will see them again), not to mention that a newborn means no more chances to go away just the two of us for a while.
It was a great last hurrah with the Cendomas!

You all look so great in all the pics, and I love the amazing places you got to visit. We loved having Maya too!
I loved pretending to be Maya's "mom" while you were away ;) I guess it wasn't an unreasonable thing for strangers to assume...
