Aruba

We just got back from a week-long trip to Aruba! It was wonderful. The weather was perfect (as it almost always is in Aruba) and Lucy had SO much fun playing in the pool and at the beach. Although it was a lot less relaxing for Jeff and I than it was the previous two times we had been there (gee, I wonder why???), it was a ton of fun to see Lucy having such a ball...and we had a ball playing with her! We're now home to the cold and hoping that the frigid weather that is predicted for tomorrow is the beginning of the end of winter...we're sure ready for spring now. And, as you can see below, Lucy certainly has the wardrobe for it!

The pool at our hotel

Lucy playing her favorite beach game: "Carry the Flip-Flops"

And this is her favorite hotel room game: "Carry Mommy's Purse"

Visiting the Butterfly Farm

Kisses from Mommy!

She was fearless of the water

Way up in the air!

At breakfast

All this activity sure does make a girl tired!

With Mommy on the balcony to our room...not a bad view!

It's fun to feed Daddy

Here we are at the Flying Fishbone restaurant in April 2005 (on our honeymoon)...

And here we were last week, two short years later!

Our dessert then...

And now (a bit premature, but it got us a great table)!
