Half Moon Cay

We rented snorkel gear for the day. As you can tell from the expression on Maddox's face, he didn't like it. He couldn't walk in the flippers but he did make it into the water before he gave up. Macen snorkeled several times throughout the day and James found a perfect sand dollar. Unfortunately, it broke into pieces in no time but we still brought it home.

There was some football throwing in the water, chasing each other on the beach and a some dancing from Macen. Great day!

Grand Turk

Our first port was at Grand Turk. Gorgeous water and great weather!

Margaritaville had a pool so the boys got in some more pool time and tossed around the football while we had drinks.

Carnival Cruise

Once again our cruise got off to a rocky start. We were suppose to fly from 12:30-5:30pm and after a flight cancellation, we finally left Indy at 8pm and it was nearly 2am before we got to our hotel in Miami. But we got onto the ship with no issues and the boys were ready too hit the water as soon as we ate lunch. They loved the hot tubs on either side of the pool the most.

They looked forward to seeing what animal our room steward made each night for them.

James and I enjoyed the Blues blue margarita by day and whiskey/burbons and peach cosmopolitans by night. 

Both boys spent time in Camp Carnival and had a lot of fun. Both also received written praises throughout the week. Maddox even got to move up to the next age group because they said he was mature for his age. Pretty proud parents here!

Purdue Track & Field Event

Macen got 1st in the 55m hurdles, 2nd in the 55m dash and 3rd in the 200m dash.  

All the pics from this race, he is a pretty happy kid.

Maddox placed first in all his races - 55m hurdles, 55m dash and 200m dash.

Awesome job boys!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Finally got some pictures of the boys. Macen was sick most of last week and life happened over the weekend. 

He asked if he was standing in front of the 'I love you'. I said yes and asked if that was ok. He replied with a very serious "Yeah, because I love you". He is such a stinker most of the time and then he brings out the sweetness when we least expect it, lol.

If Conversation Hearts Got Real...

this is what they would say in our house, lol.
