Fly me to the moon...(sing along...you know you want to)

Ok so I don't really want to fly to the moon. But I just like to fly...on an airplane. With that being said...I've only been an airplane a few times. I love it but I'm also always terrified.

We just got back from Jamaica in November. We flew from DFW to Atlanta and from Atlanta to Montego Bay. After going through Atlanta's airport, I feel like a professional flyer. Wow. Their airport is HUGE and sooo nice. We weren't there long at all...just long enough to grab some a Panda Express and run sprint (seriously) to our gate. My husband seemed to think we had plenty of time until they made the last call announcement...then he hustled. We were the last to board and I was out of breath. At least I was dressed appropriately in workout gear.
See I told you I was in my workout gear...ready to head home. Please excuse my husbands gray bangs...hahaha...he needed a haircut badly.


Anyhow...let me tell you about Jamaica's airport. I don't like it. At. All. We stayed at the RIU Palace in Montego Bay...meh I wasn't overly impressed. The food wasn't so good...and I'm all about good food. The resort was clean and the staff was nice...but not overly nice.

We went zip lining. That was by far the best part of our trip and I really enjoyed seeing Jamaica and the way of life. It's insane and it made me feel incredibly blessed to live where I do and to live as comfortably as we do.

On day 3, my husband booked a deep sea fishing trip and the boat broke down and he was stranded on the ocean for half a day. Needless to say we were ready to come back after that.

With all this being said, we do love love to vacation and travel. With spring break around the corner I really want to go somewhere as a family. Parker is only two, so I'm not sure what some good options would be.

We've been to Branson a few times and I just love that place. Any suggestions would be wonderful!

Catching Up

I've had so much trouble blogging from an iPad. My template needs work. If you know of anyone who can get me all fixed up with a custom template, please send them my way. I'm willing to pay.

So, oh my goodness. My princess is two now. I haven't blogged since she was brand new. Check out this precious terrifically two year old. 

So let's play catch up now and hopefully I'll make more of an effort to continue blogging.

We tried to stay busy over the holidays. We attempted to take pictures with Santa and let's just say it didn't go over so well. See for yourself. 

                         

Christmas Eve we traveled all over. I was exhausted. Next year we plan on staying in and starting new traditions in our own home. Here is Parker and her Gram.

We ended 2014 with having a few of our favorite neighbors over. We played Heads Up and Scattergories. We also played a fun little game where each person wrote down three resolutions and I read them out loud and everyone had to guess whose was whose. It was a good night. Very much looking froward to 2015.



Stay tuned for more this year!
