Grand Caymen...maybe next year!


Chad and I were "supposed to" spend this week being lazy on a beach in Grand Caymen.


Since Joshua is not ready to be left for a week AND we do not have his American passport yet (in order to bring him with us), we spent the week at home.

So instead of a late breakfast via room service followed by a run on the beach followed by a nap in the sun followed by a fancy dinner, our day looked like this:

Chad:
9am-3:30 PM running the backhoe
5PM grill steaks for the family
7-10PM watch a movie with the kids

Alicia:
9 AM have coffee with Sierra and friends
1:30 buy groceries with Joshua, Sierra, and Krissy
12:00 drive girls to do some volunteer work
12:25 unload groceries
1:30 drop off Jamison to do volunteer work/pick up girls
2:45 take nap with Joshua
4:45 drop girls off at movie, bring Jay to buy Valentine for his girl
5:45 eat yummy dinner Chad made
7:15 pick up girls from movie
8:00 get Joshua to bed
8:25 watch end of movie with Chad and kids

Was staying home from this year's Incentive trip was absolutely the right decision? Without a doubt. Am I missing a week away with my hubby? Absolutely. Do I wish I were napping on the beach? Oh, yeah! Am I thankful to have my not-ready-for-the-beach-body covered today in jeans and a turtleneck sweater today? Affirmative!

See there is something good about everything!
