Bar-B-Q fest

I had to copy Casey and put this picture on my blog...This year at Bar-B-Q fest we met "the king".

Our St. Thomas Trip

Ed and I got to go to St. Thomas...Don't think we go on trips all the time, but it just worked out this way. I won a trip to St. Thomas through a sales contest with my job. We got to stay at the Ritz and it was beautiful. There were about 110 people from my company there. We got to meet a lot of great people. This is our room. That bed was so fluffy and comfortable. So comfortable that we had breakfast in bed 3 of the 4 mornings. It was nice.
St. Thomas is very hilly and has lots of trees. This is the view from our room. The pool and ocean were to the right past the trees. It was so pretty.
One night my company rented out a place called Iggies right on the beach. We had dinner and they had a band. Ed got to play drums. He loved it!!! I don't know if you can see it very well, but the real drummer is the man in the back with his hand on his hip. Needless to say he was not happy that my man came in and played so well!! Great job Ed!
The band liked Ed so much they gave him a cd. The Ah We Band....great name....???

This is kind of an overcast day, but you can see the ocean was as calm as a lake. It was also very clear. We did lots of snorkeling and saw some huge turtles and a sting ray.
Another view from our room.

The pool and the ocean. On the last day a kid had an "accident" in the pool and they had to close it for 24 hours. All of you moms better make sure that when you take your kid swimming, they better have on a swimming diaper!!!
My sweet husband and me out at a restaurant in St. Thomas. Yes, we were wearing name tags. They asked us to wear them the entire time. It was kind of good b/c I am terrible w/ names, so it definitely helped.

We had a blast in mexico. We went with our friends Casey and Justin. It was awesome! The hotel was beautiful and the food was great. My work clothes were definitely tight when we got back...
We went to Cozumel on a ferry and spend the day. We got to hang out there and snorkle at another Resort. We also rented a Jeep and drove around Cozumel. We got a taste of real Mexico... It was a real eye opener..I am glad to live in the USA!
The hotel was open from front to back and these huge trees were in the lobby. This resort reminded me of the hotels in Hawaii, they are all open from front to back.

View from the lobby. Isn't it beautiful? The ocean was clear with no seaweed...

Here is a picture of my long lost twin sister, Casey. I have always wanted a sister and now I feel like I really have one. People always ask if we are sisters or twins, we used to say no and explain, but now we say yes and roll with it. We have so much fun. By the way, Casey is 4 1/2 months pregnant in this picture. Can you believe that? I hope I look that good when I am pregnant.

We had an amazing vacation. We can't wait to go again. It is so nice to get away, then it is also great to be back with family and friends.

Back up and Running!!

I am so happy to be back up and running. We just got back from Mexico and it was awesome. I have been extremely busy and will post pictures when I get a chance. I have a new blog, so please delete my old blog and add this one. I will write more later!!!
