One of the first things we did after getting off the boat is go over to a little tent set up and have the girls hair braided. Poor Bella and her sensitive scalp...she did really well, though.
And I'm sure you've noticed her red cheeks in many of these pictures....after the first day, she developed this horrible rash all over her face and body...we think it was more than likely a heat rash. It was totally gone by the time our plane landed.
Topher's a stud...he gets all the ladies.
The island is really small...so we rented golf carts for the day and zoom-zoomed all around. Grammy and Papa had been here before and were our tour guides.Hyrum's actually a pretty good driver for his age and height. Ü
Aube screaming at me, since we didnt have enough room for her with Topher, Bella and Rylee in our cart. But of course, 2 seconds after they take off she was just fine...
We stopped off at a Turtle Farm....saw some really cool turtles. There is a video I am going to post in a separate post that totally rocks....
Aren't seahorses cool?
Hola. Don't fall off.
One of the places I am SOOOO going to zipline when we go back. It's just too pretty, isn't it. The color of the water is just indescribable. Gah!
Grouchy...."I wanna go swim" or "I wanna go to the beach"...hush it child, this is vacation. ;)
That night we went to a Brazilian restaurant that turned out to be a dud. But I love this picture of all our mens (and the girlies running after them).
Most of the time, they shared and played nicely.
Others, it was like this. To say the least, we had a few breakdowns.
This one of the dresses I bought on the island...James changed in my dollars for pesos...so I really have no idea if I got ripped off or not...I'm pretty sure I did. BUT, I did get a deal on a bracelet. I was walking off from the vendor because I didn't have enough money, right? Well...he runs after me, saying "$10" ummm...no, I only have $5....will you take $5? "Okay, fine..." hehe...I was so proud. But truthfully, I don't quite like that kind of "shopping" I'd rather my purchase have a price, then some vendor making me feel bad because the bag I just bought took some old lady 3 years to make (yes, he said that to me, and Mommalove called him a liar...hehe).
It was a long day...and by the end of the meal, the girls were down for the count.
It was a great day...the Palace Resort on the island is beautiful and I'm hoping we get to stay there a few nights when we go back!!

Wow I have never seen such a blue ocean before, it is amazing! I absolutely love the dresses!! They are so cute on your girls!
The picture of me and Bella under the zipline picture is when we had climbed to the top of that lighthouse tower. She was scared she was going to fall off the side.
I thought that might be where it is! lol...I should have posted the picture of her walking down the lighthouse steps...crazy steep!
Katie...I'm so making them wear the dresses to church on Sunday!! I've loved them ever since I saw them on your girls! :)
Don't forget that Aubree fell asleep while imitating Bella and pretending to fall asleep
When are you going back?! So jealous. I’m adding this to my wish list – right after Hawaii – I mean before – I mean after. Ugh – so hard to decide! :-)
Love all of the pictures. Looks like you all had a fabulous time.
I love the dresses!! What fun souviners!
The dresses are great and it seems like everyone had a great time by the pictures....even with a few grouches now and then who could complain...that ocean is so beautiful!
I love the blue water! Beachy vacations are my favorite.
AWESOME pics! I want one of those dresses and some seahorses and a turtle for pets!
