Aaaahh, Anguilla!

Aaahh, I am home from one of the best vacations I have ever been on. Didn't know I was gone!?! I know, I left some goodies behind for you so you wouldn't miss me while I was on vacation. Where did we go? Anguilla, baby! If you watch The Bachelor then you may have heard of it, if not then you probably think I made this place up. But I didn't, it was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. For those of you that are Bachelor fans, remember this:
I actually got to see where they did the filming. The beach they did the 2 AM photo shoot on was beautiful and is a very popular spot for photo shoots (its actually where they shoot for Victoria Secret too) We saw a live shoot going on while we were there. That was cool. But actually, we stayed at a different resort (even prettier) it was called the Vicroy. I wondered why they didn't choose our hotel (like how I call it OUR hotel) because it was so much prettier. Then I learned the the Vicroy has only been open since November and the filming of the Bachelor was done in October. This little private island was almost unknowed until it was aired on T.V. and now it is just absolutely booming. Pretty cool, huh?
This shot is from my absolute favorite place on the Resort. This is call Half Shell beach and the view looks right back at our hotel. Pretty incredible, right? This trip was actually part of Brandon's work. The trip was paid for by Mercedes Benz and they sure know how to throw a party! And talk about pampering too. There was only one day that Brandon had to work, the rest of the time was, relaxation, parties and excursions. From the second we arrived, we were showered with gifts (A-MAZING GIFTS!) and had an a great time.

So here are a couple of MDS pages for the family album. I can tell you, these were just about the hardest pages I have made. I have so many amazing pictures it was hard to narrow them down. I guess I am gonna have to print some of these to use as artwork in our home.


I hope someday we will get to go back to Anguilla. It was unbelievable. Thanks to Mercedes for treating us to this and thanks to my wonderful husband for working so hard to earn these incredible trips.
Now after all that travel (two planes, a bus, a boat and another bus just to get there) I am really glad to be home! I think I may need a vacation from my vacation.
