Matt & Sara's Visit!

October 20-26, 2009


Joe, Matt, Sara, and I on Flamenco Beach, Culebra



Joe's sister and brother-in-law, Sara and Matt, visited us in PR for vacation
October 20-26, 2009. I picked a few pictures from their visit to share.



This is Matt holding baby Mac. They showed up just two days after we found him...he didn't even have a name yet!




Culebra Island-Flamenco Beach

We went to the island of Culebra (to the east of PR) one of the days of their trip. We ended up flying home from the island in this little 10 passenger (including pilot) plane. The 10 minute flight sure beat the other option of an hour and 15 minute ferry trip!

The water bottle pictured below is full of ocean water, not bottled water....the water at Flamenco Beach is that clear.





Los Tubos

The next few pictures are from a pretty secluded beach with some huge waves. As you can see from the picture below, Sara is enjoying the sun and sand while Joe and Matt fight the huge waves in the background!
These are little snails






El Yunque National Rain Forest


Here is a view from one of the lookout towers in the rain forest. That is Luquillo in the distance. This is the north-eastern coast of the island.





Random pictures from their trip.....

We love beer towers from Old Harbor Brewery :)


Joe & Matt enjoying a drink


Joe absolutely loves his grandma's apple pies, so she made two of them and Matt and Sara carried them on the airplanes with them all the way to Puerto Rico! Joe is pretty spoiled, I know.

Cute-ness



I'm so far behind with this blog that Willow just turned 2 and these pictures are from when she had just turned 1. She has changed SO much in the past year.

Christmas 2009, carrying around her remote control and snatching ornaments.

Just a pretty picture...


Sea shells by the sea shore

Mac Grew Up





Mac was born at the very end of September 2009, so he is well over a year old now. He is still crazy but definitely cute. :) My little brother would think I'm weird for posting cat pictures! haha




Time for an update......

Last time I posted on here was almost a year ago. I need to do some major catching up, seriously. (Not that life is really that exciting, I just always said I wanted to keep up with this.)


Since then I've had a memory card go bad on me and gotten my computer stolen so I may be missing a lot of pictures.

I will probably have to take pictures from facebook or something, so hopefully the quality is ok.

I am going to try to post things in order, so hopefully I can remember the timeline!
