Christmas on the Beach!
Hello friends! After blogging about our wedding, I find it only fair to blog about the next best thing (well, even better than the wedding..but don't tell my mom), the honeymoon!!! Following the wedding night we had to get up at 4:45 a.m. to catch a 7:30 flight out of Jackson. The alarm went off, and we didn't even push snooze..not even once (odd for us)! After a long day of traveling (with no delays..we knew it was a good sign) we finally landed in the beautiful city of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Our resort was absolutely breathtaking. When we checked in, we were escorted to the Royal Service lounge where they served us wine and sushi as we waited to meet our butler. Yes, that's right..we had our very own butler!!! Huge plus. Everything about the place was great. The service, the sunsets, the beach and pool (where we had our own private beds..another plus.), the restaurants, the night shows, the excursions, and of course..our baths we got prepared every night by our butler with champagne, candles, and chocolate..all GREAT! Chris got to play golf on a fabulous golf course, and we enjoyed a couples massage together! But the best activity we got to do was definitely the Buggy Ride. I know that sounds weird, but let me explain...we got to ride around Punta Cana and get muddy! Haha, we knew this was part of the fun when we signed up..but with Chris driving, he definitely made sure we got extra muddy! We rode to an isolated beach that was absolutely gorgeous, to a place where the locals were making cigars and coffee, and to a cave with fresh, natural water..which we got to jump in to wash the mud off. It was so much fun to get out of the resort and see the city and meet some of the locals! Truly an AMAZING day. Ohhh yeahh...listening to Christmas music on the beach was definitely another plus! Most of all, I enjoyed every minute I got to spend with my husband! I woke up every day even more happy than the day before. And it has been that way ever since. Each day I have with him just gets better and better. Ok, sorry, got a little mushy on ya. Here are some pictures from our fabulous trip!

Wow, looking at all those pictures sure makes me miss the beach..as I am watching snow flurries here in Nashville. Oh well..I guess it is time to light our fire and cuddle up on the couch with a big cup of coffee! Thanks for reading, and God Bless!
