Visitors!!!!

I was so excited when my mom called me last Saturday and asked if she and the kids could come for a 3 day visit that very next day! Of course, I said yes, and it was so good to see them!

We had a wonderful time! We relaxed, played games, swam in the pool, had dinner and ice cream out, and had a chance to show them around Charlotte a little bit :) I kept meaning to take some pictures, but didn't end up getting the camera out until we took them to our new church where Josh is interning to show them around.

Grace and Ian enjoyed the playground . . .
 Crazy hair!

Grace LOVES having her picture taken :)

please ignore the gross hair and sweaty faces- it's the memories that count ;) (and it was SO hot out!)

Love those freckles! 
sweet brother :)

Honeymooners

Two days after our wedding, we headed to the airport and boarded our flight to Jamaica!!! 
It was beautiful. Our resort was great and we had a wonderful week!

One of the pools-this is where we would come if we wanted peace and quiet.

There was always something happening at this pool, so if we wanted to hear some music or get in on a game, we hung out here.
 My husband!
 We're so cool. Yeah :P
We took a walk on the beach pretty much every night before and after dinner. The first night we were there, someone had written this in the sand :D
 It was SO hot. The only thing that saved us was the non-stop wind.
 The view from our favorite restaurant.
 He beat me in ping-pong :(
 ...but I still love him ;)

 There's a slight haze in these pictures- the humidity was so thick that it was really hard to keep my lens from fogging up.
Josh always insisted on turning the camera around on me :P
 This picture was straight out of the camera. Blue sky. Aqua water. Amazing.
 Snorkeling! We saw a sting ray and tons of other colorful, incredible things!
 We drank SO many pina coladas :P
High humidity + water= crazy hair! 
I couldn't get enough of the sight of that ring on his finger!
 Or the one on mine, for that matter :D
 He loves me so much he'll even wear an Indian's hat for me!
Brown legs. Good books. Blue skies and water. Being there with my husband. I don't think it could've gotten any better :D
