Sharing Jello and My Sleeping Beauties

We're home from Virginia & what a fun, busy trip!!  I'd like to finish our trip to Tampa about a month ago as I still have a lot of pictures from then :o)

Dennis aka Pappy sharing some of his jello with Caden & Jordan

 Look at this Messy Marvin :o)

 And another

 Here are some pictures I snapped of my Sleeping Beauties

 We made a bed for Caden on the floor and one night I woke up and couldn't find him.  He had squirmed under Jordan's crib while he was sleeping!!

 Oh no!  An awake beauty!!

My niece, Teresa, had gotten this little walker toy for Caden at Christmas several years ago.  Now Jordan has taken off using it.  It won't be long until he puts it aside and takes off on his own!!

Another Fishing Trip ~ On Base At MacDill

Still Dieting ~ Weight Loss

When I was in the States a few weeks ago my diet fell by the wayside several times.  I didn't even want to think of getting on the scales when we got home, but a day or so later I did to find out I didn't gain any weight!  That alone was amazing :o)  This morning I got back on them again to check and much to my surprise I've lost more.  I'm now up to a wonderful weight loss of 30 lbs!!  I'm so proud of myself as I've never been able to stay focused this long before to accomplish this.  I'm still going to work at it and see how many more of these unwanted pounds I can shed!!  Just had to share my exciting news with you all out there!

At this point my scale really isn't saying "OUCH" so much as "YEAH!!"

A Day Off ~ Holiday

Today is a holiday here in Cayman and we have a day off!!  YIPPEE!!  Not sure what I'll do, but I'm sure I'll find something as there's lots of opportunities presenting themselves here at my home :o)  You can read about this special day below!  (Shortened version!)

Cayman Islands

Discovery Day in the Cayman Islands commemorates the discovery of the Sister Islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman by Christopher Columbus in 1503. The public holiday is celebrated on the third Monday in May.

Brett's Family

Brett, Karissa, Caden & Jordan

Brett rode his new motorcycle to the mall thus the dew~rag :o)

The Merry~Go~Round

One of the last times we were in Tampa, I took Caden on this Merry~Go~Round at the mall and he cried and cried!!  Not sure why, but he wasn't a happy camper.  So, we asked him if he'd ride with Jordan and us.  He was so excited to do so and off we went!  It was a lot of fun as both boys loved it!!
