Here are the highlights from our wonderful trip to paradise. We stayed at the Iberostar Dominicana - which I highly recommend... friendly waitstaff, fabulous food, and the best beachfront of all the resorts. The weather was perfect (85 during the day and 75 at night) and the water is the most gorgeous blue/green (pictures do not do it justice). Our daily routine consisted of the following: morning walk on the beach; lay by the ocean and fall asleep to the crashing waves; get ready for dinner; enjoy lobby bar/discoteca/hotel entertainment. And one day we went zip lining - my boyfriend is much more adventurous than I am, and going on this excursion pushed me WAY outside my comfort zone. All in all it was a much needed break and nice to be completely disconnected from the world for awhile...
We came home to falling snow... between that and work today, I am definitely still in Punta Cana in my mind :)

Ugh, you just made me so jealous.
Yes, you are back, Heather. Your vacation sounded LOVELY and the photos are so fun. Thanks for your compliment on my layers. Nice to hear that from you, esp!
When I read your comment, I let out a bit of a "Yay! she is back". Man, after seeing your photos - Ya, you would still be in Punta Cana for dang sure.
Looks amazing. And how cute is that first suit?!

So jealous of your trip- gorgeous photos! I went to Punta Cana a few years ago for spring break during college and it was amazing. My boyfriend and I want to go back within the next year or two.
What a cute bathing suit!! Glad you had a great time. I'm in the process of planning a vacay for the boy and I. A cruise is in the works for a year from now, but this year... something simple and fun.
I love it there too ....beautiful photographs!
nice photos:) !
Looks like SUCH a good time! Love your photos. Gorgeous scenery and you both look so happy! I was just in NYC and I'm definitely not back in a MN state of mind either :)
Looks like you was an amazing and restful vacation. So cool you went zip lining! Back to the cold reality and work days!
SO jealous! Looks like an amazing trip. I would still be there mentally too! :)

I am so glad that you all enjoyed yourselves. I went to the DR in November and had a nice time. We stayed at a private villa but we missed some of that resort experience. I think I would even try this resort when I go back with my husband. Glad you are back safely!
Wow, it looks so gorgeous there! I'm glad you had a great trip!
Looks amazing. Another place for the bucket list!
