So I've been back in the States for about 2 and a half weeks now and I'm loving being home. All in all my experiences in Mexico were good. However, they weren't great or perfect. It was a struggle. I'm not going to waste time writing a full blown explanation of everything that happened in the last 4 weeks in Mexico, but I will leave you with some pictures and captions.

Nathan came to visit me for the weekend of my birthday. Here we are up at the Pipila.

So, that about sums up my trip. As you can see, I went lots of places and saw lots of things. It was a very culturally rich experience. I went to a lot of museums, saw ancient ruins, and lived with a wonderful Mexican family...but nothing compares to home.
In theory the rest of my posts will focus mostly on my wedding planning and the adventures associated with it.
