Johnny

He was such an adorable little boy!!! John and my other brother Sam playing soccer.

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. This will be a difficult post for me. I had an unexpected tragedy in my family. My youngest brother Johnny(dad's son) passed away unexpectedly on Jan 13, 10 days after his 19th birthday. I'd been in Tucson, AZ till late Thurs, so I apologize if I've neglected to return phone calls. I still can't make sense of why this happened, but I know I need to learn to accept that he's gone.

One Tequila, Two Tequila, Three Tequila.....

FLOOR! Yeah, we met some friends poolside that day and joined them after dinner for a Tequila party! Probably NOT the best idea, but when in Rome.....

Myself, Jeremy, Rowdy, Charlie, and Danielle. Jeremy and Danielle are married and from Manhatten, NY and Charlie was from New Orleans. They were fun!

Still more to come.....

Private Dinner

One of the nightly shows.
YUMMY!
This means trouble!

The hotel gave Rowdy and I a private dinner overlooking the Sea for our honeymoon. It was very lovely.

Trip to Cozumel .......

View of Bill Gates's ship from our balcony

We're back from our trip! We had a WONDERFUL time although the first day was a little rough. They didn't have our suite available, so we got stuck in a small room facing the street! I was NOT a happy camper considering we paid for a suite facing the Ocean for 6 days, not 5! They straightened it out the next day, THANK GOODNESS and then all was great!

Here are a few views from our balcony at different times and days throughout our trip! Bill Gates was also visiting and staying on his private yacht! It was quite extravagant! His helicopters would land on the boat, taking him to and from the reefs for scuba diving. Anyway, our room was lovely(well, once we got the suite) and stocked with everything one would need! We also enjoyed lounging in the hammock as often as time would allow!

More to come.......

ADIOS Amigos!!

We leave early tomorrow morning for our trip! We're so excited!!

Be back in a week!

Happy New Year!

yor FACE!

New Year's Eve, we started the night with dinner at Grafton Street, in Harvard Square. They had a delicious menu of 3 course meals! Caroline and I had Filet Mignon, Rowdy had Lobster Thermador, and Damien had a leg of lamb! It was really very yummy!! We stayed for a few hours eating, chatting and enjoying our cocktails, before heading to Roshni's house to break in 2007!

Damien's Visit!

Before

After

Damien flew in from Chicago on Fri morning! He actually made his first flight, so we were very proud of him!!!! The boys decided to go out, while Dom and I stayed in to make Purple Haze martinis!
