Semame Street Pictures

Here are a few more pictures of Dad, Shay and Eden with the Sesame Street characters. Eden really wanted the wand that Zoe ( the one with the purple hair) carried. The characters were so nice to the kids and they were patient in the heat of the day. I would totally recommend Beaches Sandy Bay to any young family for a vacation. The travel was long, but well worth it.

Beach Babies

After the wedding there was no need to stay clean, so the kids decided to play in the sand. The bride joined in later too. More pictures of that to come :)

Josiah- 12 weeks

My little man is 12 weeks old today :) He is such an awesome baby. He constantly smiles and tries to talk to us. He did remarkably well traveling and was loved by all the family and Jamaicans. We are blessed beyond words by him already.

The Jamaican women LOVED Josiah's red hair. They were so good the children. Here one of hotel staff stopped by to check him out.

Eden wanted to steal the knight, she just loves horses :)

Sesame Street

We stayed at Beaches Sandy Bay, which has a Sesame Street theme for the kids. Each day there would be some fun activity for the kids and character would show up. On Thursday a big group of characters came by our rooms, so Shay, Eden and PawPaw went out for some pictures. The characters were awesome. It was about 85 degrees, but felt more like 95 and they were in these big heavy costumes.

We Love you Elmo!

I pulled these pictures off of Courtney's facebook tonight. This is Eden and Brielle enjoying the Elmo and Friends concert after Abbey's wedding

Brielle and Eden danced out!

You rock Elmo!!!!

Jamaica Man :)

We are having such an AWESOME time here in Jamaica. This is a beautiful country full of hard working, happy people. I am in awe of the beauty of the area, and yet so saddened by the poverty we saw driving in to the resort area.

The kids have done outstanding as far as being good travelers and dealing with being off their schedules. Josiah is a big hit with the staff here at the resort. The Jamaican women love his hair and can't believe he's only 11 weeks old. I was told this morning that 'He will be a mighty man." That pleases me. I pray he will be a might man of God!

Eden is having a blast at the beach. She loves playing in the sand. She got a little sunburned today even though we put the sunscreen on her 3 times. It is just so bright here, I will have her swim and play in her shirt tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the big day for Abbey and Brian. They are excited and we had an excellent meal tonight at their rehearsal dinner. It has been so nice being together as a family. It is a special blessing indeed.

I will try to post pictures tomorrow. I'm having a hard time getting the pictures to upload. I'll keep working on it.

Cutie Pie

I have the cutest little boy ever :) I'm completely biased, but I'm right. He is such a joy. We had him outside a lot this weekend and he had to wear a hat so he wouldn't get a burn on that handsome red head of his. He are a few of my favorite shots.
