Miami Getaway!

At the end of April (our anniversary weekend to be exact) Mark accepted a job position as a VP for a sales marketing company called 4 Results Marketing. He is one of 8 vice presidents who all recruit and train their own markets and build the company together. They have sales teams that do door to door sales for different markets. This was right up Mark's ally and we both felt like this was an answer to many prayers and a huge relief of business struggles in the past. He can still do what he loves to do but not have the burden and stress of owning and building his own business. And the more we learned and found out about this company the more we got excited for the future. It has been so awesome for Mark to work with such incredible and amazing people as it has just pushed him to work harder and be better at what he does!

Well, so to kick start things with the company they held a VP weekend for all the VP's and their wives in Miami, Florida at the end of May. We were more than excited and couldn't wait for a real little getaway without the kiddos! And to make it even better it was all inclusive and we didn't have to pay a dime the whole four days and three nights we were away! Hallejuia!  While Mark was in meetings and golfing with the guys, I was being pampered at the Spa with the ladies! It was so fun! I spent a lot of time relaxing on the beach and by the pool, eating yummy food, drinking all the diet coke I wanted, and sokaing up plenty of sun and definitely enjoyed the life of luxury for a few days!! How blessed we were to get to experience these things!  It was so nice to meet and get to know the owners of the company and to meet all the other VP's and their wives. They were all so kind and fun and it truly was an enjoyable weekend with great people!
A HUGE THANK YOU to my awesome Sis-in-law Sheila for bringing her four kids to our house to watch our four kids for two days until Grandma and Grandpa could come and help for the last two days and nights!!! It was so comforting to know our children were in such good hands and were havng a great time themselves!  
 
On our way! It pays to be nice to the flight attendants! Got bumped up to "Economy PLUS" for our second flight! The plane wasn't full and it was super nice to have a little extra leg room :)

 Our awesome suite with an amazing view.
