ATC 2012

We stayed at the Coeur d' Alene Spa and Resort. 
This is the same hotel we stayed in last year for the ATC. 

This is the view from the Dockside Restaurant.

This is the view from our room.
  I am standing out on our private balcony

I love this cascading waterfall.  It's so beautiful!  It
 made for a wonderful background. 

We got to hang out with the Brenay's.  We got to the hotel around 10ish and
checked into our hotel.  We had some time to go shopping and the boys even
got to stop and watch some Golf and Basketball before ATC.

Sat night after training we went to eat at  Capones.  The Brenay's had watched an episode of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives on Food network and Capones was featured.  We ate an amazing Chicken Gallic pizza, and Garlic Cheese Fries.  It was so yummy!!!  I would like to go back and try a burger they looked yummy too.
We went into town and got Cold Stone and went into a couple shops. We went back to the hotel and played games, The Brenay's invited us up to their room where they had a private Hot tub. What a super fun night.

This is one of my favorite pictures.  I love him so much.  We are eating an amazing Brunch.
The Chef came into the Boys training and just talked about all of this food.  The Brunch was originally $30.99 but they gave the military a discount.  We only had to pay $19.99 and it was worth every penny.
Anie, Tina and Nicole our last Breakfast together. 
All dressed up and Ready for the Ball.

Day 8 with Brit

Our last big adventure was Moody Gardens
We went to the Aquarium, 4D Wizard of Oz movie,The Rainforest, and Discovery Museum "Bodies Revealed"
Brit and I
 
At the Aquarium
We got to watch feeding time for the seals
and Babies
Feeding time for the Penguins
They were so cute.
Sting Rays.
Britany's favorite are the Sea Horses.
Brit loves the Sea Horses.  I leaned a fun fact.  Do you know that the Male Sea horse becomes pregnant?  The Female produces the eggs and deposits them in a pouch on her mates underside.  The male fertilizes the eggs, then carries and protects the developing young.  He provides oxygen and nourishment, removes wastes and slowly changes the pouch environment to be like seawater in a few weeks the young burst forth as miniature replicas of their parents.
Brit says for Women EVERYWHERE!!!
This is what happens...
 when you leave your family and spend 9 days with your sister.
Brit and I in the Rainforest.
Whenever I see Orchids it reminds my of My Grandma Carman.
Here's to YOU Grandma.  With Lots of Love!!!
Britany loved the Turtles.  She wanted to take one home.

Day 7 with Brit

This was a super fun day.  We really didn't have anything planned.  I needed to hit my WW meeting so Brit went with me.  After that we decided to go see a movie.  We went to the Starplex Cinemas and watched
 "This Means WAR."  It was awesome.

We went and did a little shopping
Had a little snack pretzles and a cookie.
Brit took me to see the Houston Temple
It's beautiful!
 It was closed so we couldn't walk around.  But it was still fun to see.
