Busy, Busy, busy as a bee!

Not that we are alone in this sentiment but man oh man have wee been busy. since our last post many exciting things have happened. I guess excitng it a relative term, but it has been fun.

On January 24, 2008, Mike and Mary Walker came to visit us. Well, probably came to visit Zach but we are the bonus to that visit. Later that weekend Doug and I went down to San Diego for his company's annual Presidents Weekend. It was nice to get away for two days just the two of us (and all of Doug's coworkers!).

We stayed at the Omni San Diego hotel right in the middle of the gas lamp district. And hold onto your seat when you hear about our crazy first night there. Sysco hosted a cocktail reception that last until 9. Feeling free and ready to go we headed down to the hotel lobby, then sat down and played a rousing game of Uno until midnight! When we go out, we go all out!

The next day we played golf. This was a lot of fun, especially since this was the first time I had played in a LONG time. and Surpisingly I didn't play too bad. Almost made me wish I played a little more. The rest of the day was spent relaxing then a nice dinner and back to bed.

By the time Sunday morning came around (and actually Saturday afternoon), we were ready to head back to the house to see our baby boy. It was only two days away and we knew Zach was in good hands but we did miss him. Of course we talked about him most of the weekend and on the way home. Then came the big moment. We pulled in the driveway, walked up the stairs and saw our little boy sitting on the couch with Nanny and Granddad. He looked at us long and hard, then we thought the smile was coming, the bottom lip started to move but instead of going up it went down and out! Then came the tears! While we were so happy to see Zach, he wanted to make sure we knew he did not like it that we left. Of course he only thought that for half a second, and only when he actually saw us. The rest of the time he didn't even know we were gone, but oh will we never forget that look he gave us! Talk about shattering a moment. That little boy sure knows how to manipulate us!
