Diana Signing Off...Meet You On The Beach!


YAHOO --- Well here is my last blog article and getting ready to sign out...I am so ready, aren't you? This last week has been very exciting and filled with anticipation. I have been checking out the NOW Jade Riviera Cancun Resort Webcam & the weather icon. Kind of a pinch yourself am I really going kind of a thing. And yes, it's really happening!

Credit card company notified, bags are packed with contact & schedule, mail & paper cancelled, neighbors notified, my carry-on has my passport, ID, cash & small bills, flight confirmation number/e-documents, Apple Vacation Documents, key to the house, pen, cards & scorecards, mobile phone, music, book, hand sanitizer, goodies to munch & share on the plane. I believe I bulged out my pouch and exceeded the maximum capacity for carry-on!

Now that I caught my breathe in excitement! Let me once again extend my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for having each of you make this journey with us, celebrating 20 years plus together, wow! Each of you has a story with us and that is what makes this trip so very special. Thank you so very much for being in my life and in ours ... Roger and mine that is!

I also wanted to give "THANKS" to a few of our guests who have gone above & beyond for us in the launching of this trip. These individuals are "Martie" who will be our renewal officiant, our renewal attendants, Russell, Buzz, Mike, Karen, Laura & Alex. We have three photographers - Ani, Randy & Rocky who you will see taking photos through out our trip! So smile and remember to say ..."Queso"! Special thanks to my bro' Reagan and our friend Mike who is helping Martie with the music and "those incidentals". Special gratitude to Karen & Buzz who both have stepped in supporting us with the background details as well as keeping our "daily life commitments" balanced by offering to handling whatever we need to kick off a "getter done " mode. And in this committee of friendships, though this may be her business and her job. I need Alex to take a bow. If you only knew the emails, phone calls, research, coordinating, planning and oh "discussions" we had to get this trip underway, whew! Glad we are going to have some fun now!

Finally I want to give a "shout out" to my main man Rog', my "Big" Boy -Hunk a Burning Love - Stud Muffin Dude - Funny Man - Honey Do This - Best Partner - My One & Only - Love of My Life friend... yes, we're doing it again Husband! We certainly aren't perfect, but together it's near perfection! Thanks for all your love, support & "tolerance"...I couldn't do it without you my main man Rog', love you lots .... now let's get going, start the fun and of course "meet you on the beach" everyone!!!

Look for your documents in the mail !


I just got the news that our documents for the resort is in Alex's hand. She is busy sorting through and checking the paper work to see what matches up with her information that you all got to her, right? Hope you followed up with her request.

The plan is after she reviews and package them with your contact address, she will be sending them through the US Postal Service "MAIL"...that's the old fashion "snail mail" to most of you! So check your mail box...it will be coming soon.

Thanks Alex for all your hardwork...its' countdown 14 days on our blog ticker!

Happy Valentine's Day...



Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Hope you do something special for another or more importantly for yourself, today. Roger and I usually celebrate Valentine's Day on another day other than the 14th. Restaurants tend to be crazy, the menu limited because of the crowd and usually places to visit are crowded as well. Our beach resort town today is no exception, particularly on a nice warm sunny day...so for us, it's a trip to Home Depot together to get a replacement heater filter and a pot roast that his one and only will be cooking for dinner! Yes, this too is love!

So I'm a romantic and my man? Well let's say he is a man and he's happy with a King Size bed, right?! But we are staying at the NOW Jade Riviera Cancun Resort and it can be very romantic and or "LOVE"-ly to say the least. You have checked the photo gallery of our resort website, right? It looks pretty awesome...

So whether you are a couple or a single, treat yourself REALLY special on this trip, simply because you deserve it... a delightful bottle of champagne or a tastefully expensive bottle of wine, a spa treatment or a private romantic dinner for two on the beach. The NOW Jade Riviera Cancun Resort can pamper you with a little treat for a supplemental fee...

Contact concierge upon your arrival and see what they can do for you! Yes, you are worth it! Enjoy and savor the experience....Happy HEART Day everyone!

SPOTLIGHT SERIES by Roger


Allow me to take this opportunity to once again introduce my one & only hubby and the writer of our upcoming blog post series "SPOTLIGHT", by Roger ! In these upcoming future blog articles, Roger has graciously offered to contribute his creative writing abilities and fun sense of humor to introduce our guests who will be joining our 20th Anniversary Renewal.

So as Roger often says ... get comfortable, grab your favorite drink and return often to see if it's you're turn to be "Spotlighted". Our kick off series start with Karen and Buzz Vaughn as they have not missed any of our group social gathering or trips. What loyalty, huh? So please revisit us here as it could very well be YOU next....

We're Back & Getting Excited...


Hope you all had a wonderful Holiday Season and an even more Happy New Year start. Roger and I had a fabulous time with family & friends in the cold and wet wintery season of Sonoma Valley in Northern California. However, quite honestly we are counting down to the warmer days and sunshine of the Riviera Maya of Mexico.

So check back often at our anniversary blog as we begin our countdown to Mexico, mi amigos! March is truly around the corner. Can't wait to see you! .... Diana & Roger
