Puerto Rico photos

Sorry for the long absence. It's been busy here since Mark got back from Puerto Rico. Lots to catch up on, especially with the boys. They missed Daddy so much. Unfortunately we were all sick when he was gone. Everyone is feeling better now and things have slowed down a bit.
I wanted to share a few photos of Mark's trip. Most of them are scenery shots, but there are a few that are really great.

As you can see, he worked VERY hard while on this business trip:



He stayed in a little shack on the beach:



And he was cooped up in the conference room the whole time:



OK, not all of that is true. He did present his reasearch paper and attend many seminars and presentations. They also got to spend some time at the beach, go ocean kyaking, snorkeling near a smaller island, and to top it off, swimming and kyaking on a bioluminescent bay. Now, it you don't know what that is, just google "bioluminescent bay" and you'll see some amazing photos. Unfortunately, none of them are of Mark.

We on the other hand spend the weekend in freezing cold (literally) Fresno. Meanwhile, the day after we left Colton, it snowed here. Really! David missed a day of school and wouldn't you know it, it was the first day it snowed at school in at least 20 years. The kids were literally throwing snow balls during recess; in their pajamas no less (it was pajama day). I didn't have the heart to tell him about it. He would have been crushed.

One last note. I am heading to the Craft and Hobby Association's Winter trade show in Anaheim next week. I am planning on being there for 2 half days, partly to make the rounds with Coordinates Collections and partly as an independent designer. This will be the second show I get to attend. This time though, I will be toting Hannah around with me. I know I will have a sore back after carrying her in the Baby Bjorn carrier the whole time! I am looking forward to seeing freinds I rarely get to see (love the internet!) and checking out all the latest and greatest scrapbooking products first hand!
