A MOST MEMORABLE NIGHT!!!

The MBA program has a disorientation week for all those that are graduating but a lot of the activities have to do with bar hopping which is not that conducive to those that are married and have children. So our boys planned some activities so show their appreciation for their wives. Yes, we pretty much have amazing husbands (thanks to Steve, I am not sure Shawn would have came up with the idea.......). So for our last dinner group week the boys made all the meals. Yes, they shopped, cooked and cleaned up and they all did a fabulous job. Shawn made Cafe Rio burritos with homemade tortillas (very impressive). He was quite exhausted by the end of the night.

Next the boys planned a night for the girls. They turned the Gray's house into a mini-spa and gave us pedicures. It was really cute. They all had their list of how to give a pedicure. To be honest, I was not sure how Shawn would do and figured I would have to redo it but they turned out to be great. They even had sparking cider and hors d'oeuvres for us. They found babysitters for the kids (thanks Paxtons) and after the pedicures they sent us off with a gift card to the Melting Pot for dessert and then to a movie with the gals. They seriously went all out. I think all of us girls were beaming the entire night. It really made us feel appreciated. What a delightful, enjoyable night! Thanks boys!

That is SO thoughtful and sweet of all those husband's to do that! I love it!!! I'm sure you'll be sad to leave that group of friends. Looks like fun.

WOW that's amazing. Who is this Steve guy, can he get in touch with Spence? That is really really sweet. However Marti, I think Shawn deserves a little more credit! ;) When do you guys move to Texas?

That really is AMAZING! Not sure how many guys would have come up with that one, most wouldn't I'm positive! Way to go guys!! And, your Advent calendar turned out incredible! All the hard work paid off, it is darling!! Hope grad went well and hearing the ol' President was cool. I read a little on it, must have been an interesting speech, especially in person! Congrats Shawn!!
