moments in Dominica~

it just had to be captured :)

Emmy and Daddy!

Emmy and my hottie husband :)

great times :)

I love my glowing husband :)

aaaawwwwwww.

oh this girlie girl!

I love this pic- doesn't she just look like she is up to no good?

This pic is dedicated specifically to Papa and Auntie Amber-

the most AVID divers in our lives :)

I just couldn't turn this black and white- her cheeks are to die for.

the curl!

aren't these great- we went to a friend's b day party and the scenery was grand...

still her favorite game ;)

Valentine's Date!

we went to Rituals and it was DEEEELISH!

the chillers were buy 1 get 1 free- look at Emmy's face!

Such a fun night- it was great to just have a night to love each other :)

Emmy's Valentine Outfits of the week-

Emmy's V- day outfit- on the actual Day- CUTE!

this is from our friend in Japan- but the pink and red are irrisistable...

cute little heart shirt from Grammy :) we rolled up the long sleeves

and yes- the whole outfit is size 6-9 mo...

little Darling girlie

saying cheese and eating her valentine frosting.

enjoying our Valentine date last night- yes-

we got a buy 1 get 1 free chiller at Rituals-

AMAZING!

the BEACH BASH!

Amber and Liz waiting for our free T shirt :)

enjoying our lives and waiting for the sunset.

Jason ~ enjoying a study free moment with Ems.

I love the moments after the mini-

so nice to be free for that minute :)

Cabrits snorkelling day...

yet a NEW fav picture= there have been a lot of those lately!
Emmy now says cheese so cute!

this picture just reminds me of Amber(yes, because it's of her)-

it just looks like every high school pic ever taken~ love it!

here we are before Amber snorkelled (sp?)

Emmy and Mommy by Cabrits and at Dave's favorite dolphine training pool.

these pics are for Dave- lest he forget his dream...

more of the same.

more reminder pics for Dave.

ironic isn't it.

don't worry- it wasn't here- but VOLCANO!!!

yes, the ASH covered stroller-
I should have wiped some away for contrast-
oh well- I threw those shoes in it and there was
puff that looked like a mini volcano in and of itself.


this one is the best- these are BLACK shorts-yay.

you can't really see- I should have written my name-

but the balcony is slippery and the rail on the left is

normally a DARK brown when ashfree.

A volcano erupted on an island called Montserrat...

The island is just one island over (to the north of ours)~

Guadeloupe is in between us.

And there is a thin layer of ash everywhere.

Sadly, I didn't take down our laundry yesterday

(that's what I get for being lazy) so now everything is a touch ashy...

We didn't hear or feel anything,

but this morning it looked a little like it was snowing...

Although usually it doesn't snow when it is 70 degrees outside :)

The sky is gray, which is strange, since it is usually so blue.

At first I thought that the sky was just wierd and that a huge storm must be coming...

and that Emmy had somehow gotten flour all over the balcony=

but then Jason called and I looked at the laundry and everything else around me

and FINALLY put 2 and 2 together!
Needless to say it has been YET another fab Dominican experiance-

such a pretty little thing.

nuf said!

INDIAN RIVER HIKE! the hike of hikes!

here we are in a banana grove- yes, I am eating the bananas-
and looking silly- something about Amber makes me do strange things for pics-
but our friendship DID start in high school and I think that has something to do with it...

enjoying the HUGE tree roots.

me teaching Amber about cacoa- how to spell it- I don't know.

a little not finished hut. the joys of a timer camera...

the little naturalist as Auntie Amber calls her.
