We love Jamaica

Last month, Joe and I took a trip to Jamaica to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We had such a good time that we may go back again sometime. Here are some of the photos we took:

Relaxing in the Caribbean

Lounging on the beach

Ahh, a relaxing swim!

Beautiful view from the hotel

Yummy food

Great friends from England (We climbed up the Dunn's River Falls with them, tons of fun, had a blast)

And lots of fun. Here is Joe in front of a small shop on our way to the Spirit of Reggae tour, Joe in front of a Bob Marley Gold Album display, and Joe and I enjoying a soak in the Caribbean Sea.



Here we are by a gazebo at the Holiday Inn resort where we stayed, us on a ship in the harbor where Christopher Columbus landed, and Joe even managed to find some taro in Jamaica.

The Chicken Bandit

I caught this chicken bandit trying to break into our chicken pen the other day.

Too late to catch up????

I know, I know... it's been months. But how's a girl supposed to keep up the blog while being Primary President, working, taking care of 3 kids, cleaning the house (o.k. so I am behind on that one too), etc. etc. etc.... Anyhow, here are a few pics that I have managed to take between everything else:

Easter!

Emalia loves ice cream cones.

She was bored on the way to Idaho?!?

Fun in the sun!

Girls Dresses

Kristie, this is what the girls dresses look like for Kellie's wedding.

Snowy Days

The girls enjoyed the very snowy Christmas we received:

Snow Angels

Analei liked lounging in the snow, Aneti actually made a snow angel, and is that Emalia's boot... behind her?!?

Where did the picnic table go? ;)

Yes, we enjoyed the snow this year. But now it is just plain cold. :(


You're right dad, Joe didn't miss the snow party. He actually half buried Emalia so she wouldn't tip over. Here's the pic...

Merry Christmas!

Here are a few pictures of our Christmas festivities:

Story time at the library...and Santa. Aneti was scared, Analei tried to take his beard, and I gave Emalia her binkie so she wouldn't eat his beard.

At the mall with all 6 cousins!
