I can't promise, but I think this will be the last blog about my wonderul trip to Jamaica!
We went out in the Caribbean two times snorkeling. The first time we saw one stingray. The second trip we saw these three swimming around the reef. Though they are a little scary, they are the same creatures that killed the "Crocodile Man", they are also beautiful. I was so excited to get to see them!

Montego Bay Sunset
This is perhaps one of the most beautiful photos I have ever taken! Sunsets on the beach are the greatest!
The Wedding hut
Last week we packed up and headed to Montego Bay Jamaica for the week. Our nephew got married there on Thursday, in this little gazebo by the water.
We stayed at the Sandals, Montego Bay Resort. I have to say that I was very impressed with the people there. Though they live in virtual poverty, they are some of the happiest folks I've ever been around. You would think that they would see the wealth of the people in the resort (imagined wealth or true wealth, doesn't matter when you are poor) and become bitter. And perhaps they are, they just don't show it. Every employee I encountered greeted me with a smile and some even knew my name.
The food was great and the beach was beautiful, I just can't say enough good things about this trip. It was the most relaxing place I have ever gone.

Grandpa
This is my stepdad. Well, actually, he's more like my dad. He married my mom when I was 9 years old. He taught me how to play ball, manage money, cook, and be the person I am today, along with my mom of course!
Raymond was in the Military, in the '50's (I think), in the Marines. He was a cook. A very good cook too.
I found this photo in a box of pictures a few weeks ago, and couldn't help but scan it into my computer. He does Military funerals for veterans. They put on these uniforms, and go out and give the respect to the veterans, a 21 gun salute of sorts. It's very touching.
I'm proud of him, and love him very much.

Meet Mark
This is hubby with Mark Anthony Miller. His mom and dad are good friends of ours at the church we go to. He's such a sweet little guy!
Mike and I have unofficially adopted him as our grandson.

The latest Purse
I finished this purse and wallet set yesterday. I wanted something fun to take to Jamaica with me. We leave in just a few days, April 21st, so it's coming up pretty quickly!
