Cancun!

Hola! On January 2nd, we flew to Cancun, Mexico to relax and brainstorm for 2009. We had a blast and wished we could have stayed longer than just 5 days!

Here's some of our memories!

Here we are at the airport after arriving in Cancun. We pulled our Rainbows out of carry-ons and adjusted to the 80 degree weather!



This was the view from our rooms at the Omni Hotel. Beautiful huh?

Within an hour of arriving at the hotel, we had unpacked, eaten a buffet, and hit the beach!

Then, we met a guy who painted (with this finger) on tile! It was so cool. We bought plenty!

You know us... Silly!

Then... the adventure began! We went horseback riding through the "jungle." Not so much a jungle... but it was an adventure.

This was the night of our fancy dinner at DaVinci! GREAT food!

And we had a night of dancing and karaoke at Pancho & Willy's across the street from the Omni. (We have Renda and Tara on video singing their hearts out... coming to the IP blog soon!)

On our last night, we photographed Tara and her hubby, Danny. Fun! Fun! Fun!

We even convinced Danny to lay in the water. (That's on video too! Coming soon... promise!)

We had a great time and hope to do it again in 2010!

We're back!

Wow! It's been forever since we've blogged! There's so much to catch up on! We've been so busy... working and relaxing... since Christmas! On Christmas Day, Buddy, Millie, Luke and I headed to the beach. We stayed there to celebrate New Years and then headed home to pack. We headed to Cancun with the girls to celebrate another great year! We brainstormed for the year ahead and got a tan too!

(We want to say again how thankful we are to have such loyal customers and we're extremely grateful to God for our many blessings!)

Then it was back to reality. The next two days were cleaning and planning around the studio! We planned out 2009 and we're so excited about what we have to offer.

As you know, we opened again on the 12th and by the 15th, we were on a plane again! We flew to Kansas City to visit our color lab. We studied their new products and confirmed that their products are nothing less than the best quality!

But we're back now! We're full of inspiration and ideas. We're going to make 2009 - our 20th year in business - our best year ever!
