I'm BACK!!!!

 From where you ask? Oh just floating around in the Caribbean for a week :)

My husband and I planned a trip with three other couples. I was oh so nervous to be away from Lydia for a WHOLE WEEK but I knew that Matt and I needed a vacation together. So I packed up Lydia's bags for a whole week with grandma and grandpa and Matt and I went on a cruise with Royal Caribbean to Haiti and Jamaica.

Let me just say, I DID NOT miss the ice, snow and arctic temps from last week! We had perfect weather the whole time, 80's in Haiti and Jamaica and high 70's felt like 80's and sunny on our days at sea.

We ate too much, drank some fruity cocktails, admired the beautiful scenery from a sand bar in the ocean of Haiti, felt incredibly small as we took in the stars from our boat in the ocean and enjoyed the company of each other and good friends.

I was so excited to get back to my girl though, I ran through the terminal where my parents waited with her and scooped her up into a big hug and kissed her chunky cheeks. She sure did make coming home a lot easier.




So much to come but here are a few pictures from our trip. I can't wait to catch up on everyone's week, it was really weird/kind of nice to go unplugged for a week, no facebook, email, twitter or blogging! But now I'm excited to get caught up and share on some amazing ways God is working in our lives right now.
