CUBA

Jared and I were lucky enough to go to Cuba!! And trust me when I say LUCKY, especially considering I broke my tail bone 6 days before we were supposed to leave. Because of that, we thought we were going to have to cancel the whole trip but were able to make it happen...with the help of a wonderful Sister, Mom, orange inflatable bum donut, and plenty of Tylenol 3's :)

Too much to write about the trip, let's just say it was amazing and I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.

I got pulled up on stage one night and taught how to play the bongo drums



We went on this Catamaran Boat Excursion were we snorkeled, saw dolphins, and spent the afternoon on a private island, swimming and eating.





On the Catamaran ride back, a crazy storm came up and the weather changed in an instant. It was quite the experience being on the rocky waves, wind blowing, bombarded by rain and sea water.

there were hundreds of these little shops everywhere

Okay the pictures just don't do it justice. It was a great trip and we were not ready to come home at the end. I would have tried to "miss" our flight home, had we not been missing the kids so much (who were at Grandpa and Grandma's in Sherwood Park). However, the kids didn't even miss us!! The nerve...

Looks so fun!! I ran into your mom the other night at the temple and she said you were one hurting girl when you left.......ouch.
I am so glad you got a little break from winter and you really are the luckiest girl to have parents who are willing to take the kids for a week!
