Be Mine

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Here are pictures from some of our festivities over the week. Our play group had a Valentine's party on Wednesday and one of our mommies, who is an amazing photog, did a great job capturing the moment!

The goodies; the bears and the puppies on the bottom right are from us!

My silly little valentine

The kiddos, aren't they cuties?? Mine was not too happy!

Sesame Street LIVE!

That's what his face looked like for the majority of the show, jaw dropped in awe that Elmo and friends were right in front of him! It was, as miss Abby would put it..."magical!" To see such joy and innocence in your child's face is truly a perfect gift from up above and definitely a memorable one.

Honey, we are all so proud of you and your success in 2009. We thank you everyday for working so hard to provide for our family. Thank you grandma and grandpa for watching David so Mommy and Daddy could celebrate another great year in Cancun!! We had such a good time with food, friends, and much needed r&r.

Our first day was spent mostly traveling, but it worked out okay because it was raining in Cancun when we got there. That night we had regional breakouts and dinner.

The next day we had some sun, but it only lasted for a few hours. This is our first year that we have been in Cancun with an actual beach; they are still in recovery mode from the hurricane that hit in 2005. So we spent the time we had on the beach sun or no sun. That night we went to dinner with other Houston contest winners and their spouses. We went to a restaurant called Harry's and enjoyed delicious surf and turf!!

On Tuesday I was treated to spa services while Dave got to play golf. That night we had the usual office dinner at a yummy restaurant and even made it out dancing full bellies and all!!

The Wives

We spent our last night as a date night, since we don't get those too often. We enjoyed a lovely dinner at one of the newer restaurants in Cancun. The best part was the dessert; they leave this tray on your table and it is literally all you can eat.....dangerous!

Overall, it was a great trip! We were ready to get back to our little nugget, though. It was 4 1/2 days away from him! He did great for grandma and grandpa, but was not too happy with mommy. He refused to speak to me on the phone while we were there and gave me the cold shoulder for about 10 minutes once we got home....payback!! Mommy and daddy made up for it though with a trip to see Elmo on Saturday; I should hopefully get those up mid-later this week but he had a blast!!
