Key Largo

We drove down to Key Largo, and looked around. Stopped at a sandal store--I have never in my life seen so many sandals! And most were really cute! However my high instep/fat foot didn't work with any of them! We ate dinner at a little place on the shore- Called The Sundowner, and watched the sun go down from the deck. It was beautiful. We had a bird watching us eat~

Atlantis

Atlantis was beautiful, and huge! It would be a fun place to stay. It has a private beach which would eliminate the peddlers we had to put up with~ It was also dead--Couldn't believe all the little foo foo shops inside that had no shoppers! We guessed everyone was at the straw market instead, where you can buy just about anything. Fake purses of all brands, fake watches, sunglasses and all sorts of local crafts, which I didn't need. Also newly released movies, which most of my blogging friends have been to see recently!

Taryn & Derik

NCL Cruise/Bahamas

We're in Miami checking it out now~ Yesterday we went to Key Largo--Ate dinner at a wonderful place there, with a beautiful view.It was wonderful cruising with Taryn, kids and Derik's family. Perfect way to do our first cruise! Of course we didn't get to see enough of them, and hated to leave them!

As pretty as it was, it just isn't Hawaii. I guess I really loved the people of the islands more. The water was beautiful in The Bahamas, but it was dirty elsewhere! On the beach there were tons of peddlers, selling every thing from jewelry, hair braiding to green (we're assuming that is pot?) The cruise ship was great~ The food was wonderful, and since this was free style cruising we could eat anytime, and anywhere we wanted to. We had our favorite restrauant we ate at everyday, and got excellent service from the staff. The first day we took off it was windy, and the ship was rocking some, it was a little hard to get the hang of standing, but didn't make us sick at all. It was great going to bed, and being rocked to sleep. We didn't have the rocking any other night, and I missed it. I would definitely do a longer cruise next time.

New Moon

Lastnight I went to New Moon with Christtina & her sister! I liked this movie much better than the first. It had alot more action and alot more Jacob! ha!

Our Oregon Halloween Boys!

This picture of Dane just cracks me up--he was one unhappy little monkey! Trenton the Ninja looks so tall--My baby boy has grown up!

Ana "bee"

Kevin, Helen & Anabeth were here last week~ Which was wonderful. Anabeth is growing up so fast, it's hard not getting to see her more often. She loved her cousins. She thought Trevor was a crack up--everything he did made her laugh. We had fun shopping, and going out to dinner~ Anabeth has her own language--it's a jibberish thing, and boy can she talk--or at least she thinks she's talking~ Kevin and Helen are going to have fun once she really catches on. The other day Kilee spoke the "jibberish" to Storie, and Storie said " Mommie you Anabeth talk". Anyway, Anabeth is a beautiful little girl, reminds me so much of her Daddy!

Trevor/ Harry Potter

Mallorie & Kolby

I need a better picture of Mallorie's wedding gown~ She had to wear a long sleeve shirt under it, because it was so cold in Idaho! But now it's temple worthy! ha! Not sure this little vampire looks like Edward! He looks pretty scary~

Emmie our Flapper

Finally got pictures of our little flapper~ The dress looks big to me~ I hate it when they aren't here for me to measure, when I'm sewing! Taryn kept telling me I needed to come there and make it! Anyway, she looks darling!

Baby Boy Quilt

Today I finished the quilt for the baby boy, I mentioned in my earlier post. Christtina was the only one who called to find out who was pg~ I had fun making her guess who it might be! Actually the quilt is for Karen's newest grandson, not yet born! I think it looks nice with my red leather chair!

It's just perfect here in Colorado. The skies are blue, and the weather is wonderful. Myrle and I went to a garage sale this morning~ They had Artic Cat 4-wheelers for sale. But they were over priced, and they looked pretty rough~ Plus we want bigger ones, these were only 400's. Not sure when we're going to back to AZ--I hear tell, the weather is getting hot this weekend~ Wish everyone could just come up here and visit us~
