Tales from Mommy Merrill: 5 years since "I do"!

Ok, so following the BroadSoft Connections conference (this year in November in San Antonio) I zoomed back from the conference, packed - repacked and we all headed to the SandPearl for our 5 yr Anniversary! I would say this was "Disconnections", following the biggest, most productive work conference I go to all year for my business. It was a much needed break from reality for me -- and as a family we all had a beautiful time.

We were super lucky and got upgraded to a GIANT suite! The room we had at the SandPearl for our wedding was NOTHING compared to the palace they put us in for our 5 yr. In fact, it was so awesome that we added another night to our stay :-)

The first day we spent with the kids at the beach and pool, then the following day grandma and grandpa merrill to the rescue! They came over and had lunch and hung out with us at the beach for awhile. Then off with the kids and Ronnie and I enjoyed a couple days to ourselves.

I really can't believe how time has flown by. We have been married for 5 years -- feels like 15 (not sure if that is good or bad?!) but the most amazing experiences of my life have happened in these 5 years. Starting a family with someone special and seeing these two amazing kids come in to the world has proven to be the meaning of happiness for me.

Here are some pics from our Connections... and then "Disconnections"!

Now... time for DISCONNECTIONS! You can't see the beach in the background, but this was a shot from our balcony at the SandPearl. It was an AMAZING VIEW!
