Family Photos - Round 2

Welcome to the Deen family photo overload.  I know the grandparents are going to love this one. 

The wind was a little more forgiving on Friday night. I think we got some keepers, a couple to frame and way too many to share on the internet.

I wish it were easier to get both of the boys to smile in the same photo, but there's only so much a 3-year-old will do for a fruit snack.  For Silas, on the other hand, it's just bonus if he's even looking up or facing the right direction.

Enjoy!








Sometimes you have to get down and dirty to get the genuine smiles!

I'll be back soon to wrap up our trip to Grand Cayman with posts on the turtle farm and Hell.

I'm pooped.  Good Night!

Day 5 - Rum Point

Let's see.  We've been back for a solid two weeks now and I'm still blogging about vacation.  I suppose I'll wrap it up this weekend. 

Here's some photos from our last day on the beach.




 My boys look tired after a long day soaking up the sun.  Back to the house for naps and then back to Rum Point for Round 2 of family photos.

Some Family Photos

The wind was FEROCIOUS!  I may have to post some of the really bad pictures just for humor sometime.  BUT, we managed to get a couple I'm happy with.
Kids are so unpredictable...





Back To Rum Point!

I had a lots of fun playing with the boys in the sand!

I had to wrestle Micah to get him in this picture.


Day 4 - A Lazy Morning

We decided to spend a lazy morning at the house drinking coffee and playing with the kids after the eventful day before. 

We brought along this Lightning McQueen kite just for this kind of morning!

Just A Few More From The 4th

While Tom was BBQ-ing some chicken, we took a stroll down to the beach behind our house.  We had a little fun playing in the sand and throwing rocks into the ocean. 

 I love sand!

Yes, I like to eat it too!




Dolphin Discovery

During the afternoon of the 4th we drove across the island to go play with the dolphins at Dolphin Discovery.  This turned out to be the highlight of the whole trip for Micah, and I guess for me too. 

Since Micah is so young, we were put into a small group with only one other mom and child.  It was great!  Micah got to spend more time with the dolphin with each trick than each of the other groups.

We learned some interesting facts about dolphins in general and all about Alma, our dophin for the afternoon.  Alma was rescued in the Carribean after she was hit by a boat.  Her tail fin was badly injured and it was determined that she would not make it in the wild.  She adapted to life at Dolphin Discovery quickly and she is now 25 years old.   
We even pet some stingrays (that had their stingers removed).
Here's Alma!
Micah loved when she would make the different noises.  He giggled and giggled and tried to immitate her.
