December 2008

Hello Everyone!
We hope everyone's New Year started off joyfully.
Here is a recap of our journey in December 2008.

The first weekend, we took a trip to Las Vegas. I had a small business obligation to attend to on Saturday morning, but after that it was all about the Gators!!! It was the SEC championship game. We walked into our hotel room and we were so happy to find two flat screens in the living room and a mini tv in the bathroom.

Here is Phil making sure that both TV's are functioning properly.

I was really happy about the large bath/shower area and they gave us Aveda products to use. It truly was our private spa. If anyone is interested in going to Las Vegas, we highly recommend Palms Place. It is separated from the gambling place, but close enough to walk to.


This is the music fountain in front of the Bellagio. This water show is played every thirty minutes and it is definitely worth watching.

Lots of hard work and play got us to Christmas in a blink.
We woke up to open our Christmas presents and made a yummy Christmas breakfast and got ready to leave for Florida in the afternoon.

This is us at the Denver Airport.

The flight wasn't so bad thanks to the satellite TV that was available for us by Delta.

Well, what did we do in Florida???
We had tons of yummy food, played four rounds of golf back to back, a trip to the beach, and the swimming pool as well. The weather was perfect, in the high 70's during the day and low 60's at night.

This is me and my dad at the Villages Golf Course. We played three rounds here and the last round somewhere else. It felt like we were playing in a PGA tour!!! It was tons of fun.

This was the par 3 hole that all of us were on the green on our tee shots.

Here is an action shot that Phil took of me. We were probably the only ones taking pictures at the golf course.

My mom even came out to play with us on the second day and she really had a blast. I think she almost made this long putt.

After golf, we went home to play with our nephews, Paul and Joshua.

For some reason, Joshua loves to fall asleep on Phil. Whenever Phil holds Joshua, he falls right to sleep.

We also went to the beach. We were babysitting Joshua, and about ten minutes after this picture was taken, Joshua was asleep in Phil's arms.

We also went swimming at night and Phil is teaching Paul how to play water gun just with your fists.

On New Year's eve, we took my parents out to dinner after Aggie's family had already left to go back to Salt Lake City.

That delicious looking drink my mom is holding was called white wine sangria.

I borrowed my mom's drink for the picture.

We returned back home on New Year's day. Our kiddies were so happy to see us but Ali had learned her bad habit again at the pet hotel. We found this treat in our kitchen just half an hour after our arrival.

We hope all of you had a wonderful time with your family over the holidays.

See you again soon...
