A Caribbean Christmas

For several years my immediate family has talked about taking a trip together for Christmas instead of exchanging gifts...this year, we finally did it! We spent 7 days in St. Thomas, US Virigin Islands, soaking up the sun, playing in the sand and sea, and celebrating Christ's birth together! Hope you enjoy this little glimpse into our trip!


Waiting for our early morning flight!

Farm Show!

I have been quite lax about posting lately...and I got scolded about it today and threatened with losing 2 of my regular "readers"...perhaps in 2013 I will manage to post on a regular basis, but I make no promises.  So, without further ado, here are a few pictures from the Farm Show...sorry for the lack of animals in the pictures...it was insanely crowded, and I felt like I was going to get run over everytime I stopped to take a photo, so there aren't many from which to choose!

 The ever-popular butter sculpture!



Hopefully this gives you something to enjoy while I try to get pictures organized for posting from our Christmas vacation...I hope to have them ready within the week!
