Santa picture

We went to visit Santa today. I should mention that Wynn has been running a fever since Saturday. All morning he has been fine and playing. So, we figured we would get a Santa picture made today. Might be a mistake. Well, we got there about 30 minutes before it opened. Everyone had the same thought. It took an hour and half before we took the picture. Wynn was doing fine, but wanted to be held the whole time. Once we got to Santa, Wynn decided that he was not happy about the whole thing. Yep, I have the classic Christmas Story photo. Wynn is crying in his picture. I guess every kid has to have one. However, I think I am going to do something different in regards to the Santa picture at the mall. Where do you go for your Christmas/Santa picture? Does your Santa look real in regards to his own white hair and beard?

Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. My dad rented a house in St. John's USVI. The house was awesome. It had an italian villa feel. The views were spectacular. Our room had an outdoor shower. That was interesting, but loved loving at the blue water. But, we didn't have the traditional meal, but went swimming in Caribbean water instead. The water is so beautiful there.

On Friday we said farewell to my grandfather. We spread his ashes over his favorite spot on St. Thomas. He is now with my grandmother. In honor of him, we rented two boats and went snorkeling, visited Foxy's and Soggy Dollar. We had a blast. We knew my grandfather was there in spirit because we saw tons of rainbows all day with no rain. I miss him a lot.

On the bad side, everyone got sick. I was the only one who got it twice. It was not fun losing a day at the beach. We tried to make the best of it. We think it might have been from the bites of the sand fleas. Not sure though.
