Jolene and Sairah in the sun...






Just wanted to send along a few photos of Jolene's and my little winter holiday... We joined Amy, Erica, Nikki, and Jen (the Marquette crew) at a little beach house on Cayman Brac, in the Cayman Islands. The island was small (12 miles long by 2 miles wide) and simple, with only a smattering of restaurants and grocery stores. This left us no reason to feel the need to do much at all, and could guilt-free just sit in the sunshine, in the hammock, snorkle in the sea, have afternoon siestas, cook, and talk. It was lovely. And having a bunch of women around to cuddle, talk to, and help care for a baby sure makes it a lot easier! Among our adventures - Erica stepped on a sea urchin, Amy got circled and then chased by a Barracuda, and we had lizard friends (most notably, Curly and Iggy) and hermit crab friends of all sizes. We saw sunrises, sunsets, and a harvest moon. Jolene got her first tooth and bathed happily in the kitchen sink. It was a good and worthwhile trip. How I miss those girls!

More photos to come, I think it limits me to 5...
