| Cruizin to Nevis IslandToday we said goodbye to our friends, the Hancocks. It was so incredible hanging out with you all. We miss you already! Dinner wasn't the same without you! The other day we all decided to head over to Nevis Island and there is no better way to get there than by a catamaran. We had such a blast! We went snorkeling at Shitten Bay (<--- that seriously is the correct name). And then we had lunch on the boat and went to Sunshines for some Killer B drinks! OMG... it was fantastic! It's been such a dream here. I just can't thank God enough for blessing us with the opportunity to take this trip with our family and friends.
By the end of the day, we were exhausted. Sun beaten and drenched with fun. And when Mom walks out of the room... the mice play! And Dad takes photos (as seen below). Have any parents out there ever said that you totally let your kids do certain things and then when you became parents everything changed? I always thought, oh, I'll let me kids jump all over the beds... why not... it's so much fun! Then when you realize if they jump right off they could really hurt themselves and something inside you cringes every time they jump on the beds, or climb across the monkey bars. Does your heart skip a beat? I know mine does.... but not Bob... no... he takes photos!!! LOL...
Have a blessed night friends...

| The Fun Continues in St. KristiesIt's hard to believe that our trip is almost over! Kristie and Shane will be leaving tomorrow and we're going to miss them so much. They are such great parents! Their kids are as cute as they can be!!! Kristie is such a beautiful soul. She's so much fun to hang out with. This is truly her island! She knows it like the back of her hand. About 4 years ago, they purchased land here with some of there friends so we were able to take a ride and check it out. The location is gorgeous!!!! They have the plans all designed for their home and will hopefully be building it soon! I can't wait to see it. Spectacular! The views are from the top of a mountain where you see the Atlantic ocean on one side and the Caribbean on the other. It's just breathtaking! We spent the day touring the island and stopping to take lots of photos. We had lunch at at Reggae bar and the kids swam, made friends, found shells, and land crabs. We even had crab races which was hilarious and played with the island dog! Too much fun. Just kicking back and enjoying some Rum Punch! Livin' de life! We so needed this break. Well, everyone here is passed out and I'm going to join them.
I hope all of you are doing great! We send our love from St. Kitts!

| We've arrived...!Wow... I had no idea how pretty St. Kitts is. I can't wait to go exploring this beautiful country. Before we arrived, we had an unexpected layover in Miami and had dinner with our friends, Ray & Anna Santana. They were so sweet to come out on such short notice. They took us to this amazing sushi restaurant that we could have set up camp in. Everything was FANTASTIC!!! Ray is a blessed man as Anna is such an incredible woman, she's a 2nd grade teacher and my daughter just adored her. And Bob and I just adore them both!!!! Thank you Ray and Anna for hanging with us and for the ice cream!!!
We met Kristie and Shane and their 3 beautiful kiddos at the Miami airport and flew out to St. Kitts. We have officially nicknamed this country, St. Kristies since they've been here 8 times now in the last 4 years! WOW. Well, here's some photos. I tried to do a super quick collage like Kenny does for our workshops and well.... not so good! Hey Kenny, next time you need to come with us on vacation! LOL!!!!! Good times!!!!
Gotta go.... we're off to breakfast! God bless! ~ Dawn

| St. Kitts - Here we come!~ OUT OF THE OFFICE ~
It's hard to believe our trip is here! We're headed to St. Kitts for a glorious vacation with our new and fabulous friends, The Hancock's! Kristie attended our workshop in Vegas back in March and that's how we met! She has since visited us in Chicago with her rockin' cute hubby, Shane! And we have become really great friends and we're so thankful to have them in our lives. They have 3 kids, we have 2... sounds like a party! We're so looking forward to hanging out on the beach and sipping nice cool drinks! We are thankful to have this opportunity to get away! Thank you Gil for staying at our place and taking care of our 2 kitties! We'll be back soon with LOTS of photos! Kristie is a photographer too!!!
God bless you all. I look forward to catching up on your blogs when we return!
