Whitscation 2010!

Jeremy and I finally planned a long-overdue honeymoon and went to Jamaica! We got the best of both worlds too...we got to spend time together but we also met 8 friends there to hang out with! We had a blast! We called the vacation "Whitscation" because it was all of our friends from Whitsbury Court in FL where I lived with my brother and Joshua.

Jamaica was absolutely beautiful and we we enjoyed every minute of our vacation! We stayed in Ocho Rios in the Grande Sandals Resort on the Rivera side. The weather was great, the drinks and food were fabulous, the water was perfect, and the excursions were SUPER FUN! We arrived on Wednesday evening and had dinner with all of our friends. Thursday we just hung out at the pool and beach and enjoyed lots of amazing food at the resort. Friday was our excursion day...we rode a zip line through the rain forest and then hiked up Dunns River Falls...AWESOME!!!!!! We were told that these were the best 2 excursions to do while we were there and we were so glad that we went on them! They were definitely must-dos in Jamaica!!!! (We would love to take Nate there when he is old enough to ride the zip line! Our little daredevil would LOVE it)! Friday evening we went to the Beach Party that the resort put on and Stephanie and I (there was another Stephanie on the trip) ended up having to dance in front of everyone! We looked quite silly but it is an experience we will never forget! Saturday was another fun and relaxing day by the pool and beach. Since we had 2 professional photographers with us on the trip, we all had photo shoots lined up for Saturday afternoon and then we ended the evening with a FABULOUS meal (and a couple of shots)! We had to get up early on Sunday morning to leave and spent all day traveling back to the states.

While we were gone my mom stayed with Nater. He was quite the handful but they did a lot of fun stuff while we were gone and there was no doubt that Grandma DeeDee spoiled her grandson! Ha! Even though we had a fun time in Jamaica we were certainly excited to see Nate. We bought him a Jamaican beanie hat and a guitar and he LOVED his presents!

All in all the trip was "IRIE MON"!!!!!!!
