Aruba

When I woke up ready to fly out to Aruba thats what I saw!

OMG I had flashbacks to 5 yrs ago when I went and the same thing happened!

Lucky my flight was only delayed about 45 mins (to de-ice the plane) and soon enough I had a much better view!

All the same creatures were there

those little guys were hermit crabs - everywhere!

I had a blast spending time with my mom, sleeping in and relaxing by the water

This bread was amazing!!!

The view leaving the resort and heading to the private island

What an amazing trip!

Happy New Year - 2015!!!

So happy for a new year and a new beginning!

I think its going to be a great year for us but ask me again in 364 days - ha!

Sam wanted to stay up until midnight so bad but I told him he had to wait until he was 10!

Instead we had a Happy Noon Day party!

I made a balloon holder for the ceiling and at 12pm we pulled the string!

Add in some confetti poppers

and a toast and we have a party!!

Speaking of party - 

Happy Birthday Mark!!

Sam decorated the cake

He did about 95% by himself - great job Sam!
