Jamaica...5 nights, 6 days...what a wonderful way to celebrate our 5th anniversary...and we couldn't have asked for better friends to celebrate with! Josh will tell you...he kind of had to twist my arm to convince me to go in the first place...and it was A LOT OF WORK to get everything prepared for Keatin and Will while were gone...but it was worth it. :) Josh and I keep talking about "what we were doing last week at this time" since we have been back...so I guess that means we liked our trip - ha!

Day 1

Checking out the ocean for the 1st time...with Red Stripe in hand (actually Josh's beer). :)

Aaron and Josh...hanging out...messing around...having some drinks...they did this a lot. :)

Missing my kids. :)

Like Josh's pose???

Josh on the peninsula, checking it all out...

Day 2 - another good Josh pose :)

Trish and I laying by the pool...we did this...a lot. :)

There was this coconut man with a cart wheeling around our resort...so we had to get some coconuts!

Sunset at dinnertime...so pretty.

Day 3

Getting ready for our "booze cruise" on a catamaran boat!

Trish and I, out on the catamaran...

Josh and Trish...

A view from our boat - Red Stripe, the beer of Jamaica. :) (It wasn't really that good, but I did choke some down.) :)

None of us realized that we got to snorkel while we were out on the booze cruise...but it was fun!

The catamaran captain had a crab on board...Trish decided to check it out!

The Carlsons & The Barbers. :)

All those dots are people snorkeling!

The catamaran captain/workers apparently knew the guys on this Jamaican fishing boat!

Love this picture...a meeting of the minds. :)

Day 4 - Aaron and I had to check out water aerobics...ha!

We went out shopping around Montego Bay and the driver took us through the center of the city...it was CRAZY! The driver said he WOULD NOT let us out...lots of pick-pocketing and crime.
