Vacation Time

Ricky started a new job today as a pharmaceutical rep for a company called Sanofi-Aventis. The past two weeks, Ricky was able to use some vacation days at Woodgrain before starting his new job. We were able to go to the Zoo, one day as a family and had a really good time. The part that we enjoyed the most was feeding the birds with the seed sticks that we bought there. The birds get so close and Brooklyn was amazed by this. Brooklyn also enjoyed waving and saying "hi" to all the animals. It was definitely a great day to go to the zoo.







Ricky and I were also able to go on a little getaway to Cancun. Ricky got his passport on Friday, I got mine Monday and we booked our flights that night. It was totally last minute. We then were searching for places to stay Monday night and I found a 4 1/2 star resort on Hotwire that was only $89 a night. The only problem was we didn't know which hotel it was. All we knew was that it was in the hotel zone, it was 4 1/2 stars and that it was $89 dollars a night. When Ricky and I were deciding if we wanted to take our chances I convinced him that it was liked putting a quarter in the gum ball machine and not knowing what color the gum ball was going to be. We took our chances and we ended up staying at Le Meridien. The hotel was absolutely beautiful.




Ricky and I had a really good time there while Brooklyn stayed with Ricky's parents. We laid out by the pool and beach, we went downtown to do some shopping (which is scary!!), and we shopped at some tourist shopping areas. It was really fun. The only regret Ricky and I have is that we didn't go to Senor Frogs the second night we were there. We went there the last night we were there and had so much fun. The waiters were hilarious and there was a band that was playing while we ate. After dinner we even danced a little bit. In short, it's a fun place to go.

I'm not a fat kid at all with my bib and taco's. That was sure one fun vacation. I am in favor of doing stuff like this more often.
