Grand Cayman

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to join my dearest Cait for a dream weekend. It was full of delicious food, beach side pinas, and of course the spa. Cait was out there with one of her clients working on the penthouse of the Ritz on 7 mile beach. Its a pretty big project and will be SO beautiful. She is really talented. Her client was so good to us. We had a great time getting to know her and her friends.

I will post more pictures as soon as I can get them from this doll but for now... click here for more.

Oh Goldie

She thinks she's pretty cool

Ohio or bust

The last weekend of January we took a last minute trip to Ohio to surprise Leah and the kids. it was so fun just to be able to have a short weekend in the cold and snow. There we many nights of hysterical laughter and much Yahtzee playing.

REUNION

Oh my gosh it is too overwhelming... Seriously over 1,000 pictures... DOnt know it i can even get to day 2.

Munns Reunion Part 1

This year the Munns Family Reunion was amazing. It was so wonderfully planned and executed. It was a real success. We had 4 days worth of action planned out for the Whole family to enjoy.

Our theme this year was Magnificent Munns. Vanessa opened up the Reunion Kick off with some phenomenal energy getting us so excited for the Magnificent reunion. In the Great Room all of the grand kids lined up on benches in the middle of the room... She spoke to the kids about Super Heroes and what makes them heroes. They are Loyal, Trustworthy, Dependable, Honest, Strong, Courageous... She pointed at the Grandfather, Father and Husband of our great big family, my dad, and said... "he is all of these things. And you can be too". She then asked the kids if they knew who OUR ultimate Hero is. The room got a bit quieter and one of my nieces answered, "Jesus". She was right.
My dad then got up and talked about his great, big family and how much he loves us. As Leah was sent in to his office to get "something" out he told the grand kids about how grandma has always said, "A child with many names is much loved". Leah then helped my dad hand out a shiny heart shaped balloon to each of his grand kids... Libbler, Go Go, Kitten, Rooster, Chubs, Boo, Jigga, Sissy Pantaloons, Dollface (goldie)... the list went on. It was such a sight. 30 little balloons bobbing around... all weekend long.
