Atlantis Resort

The kids had a long weekend at school, so we decided to take one last little getaway before the baby arrives. We stayed at the Atlantis in Nassau, Bahamas and had a wonderful time. Unlike most of our trips, I did not plan a bunch of activities, so we were free to relax. See all the photos here: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8AaNmLhw0atWOY

Brandon goes SCUBA diving

Brandon turned 10 over the summer and is now old enough to get SCUBA certified. We decided to introduce him to diving with the "discover SCUBA" program at Brendal's Dive Center in Green Turtle Cay, Abaco, Bahamas. Robbie & his son (little Robbie, also 10) joined us as did Brian. Brandon & Robbie did really well on their first dive! We enjoyed a great dive, then Brendal took us to a deserted beach and cooked a delicious lunch of grouper & lobster over a fire pit on the beach. After lunch, we hand-fed the stingrays that hang around this area. The next day, we did some snorkeling on our own.

We went on a Disney Cruise with Grandman & Pop-Pop Cardin, Kent & his family, and Perry & his family. Poor Pop-pop got sick the first night and was confined to his room for most of the cruise, but the rest of us had a great time!

Green Turtle Cay, Bahamas

We spent a couple days in Green Turtle Cay, Bahamas with Robbie & his family snorkeling, swimming, & relaxing. Of course, there was the obligatory visit to Nippers, but we managed to moderate our consumption this time! :-) The next day, we went on a snorkel / picnic trip with Brendal. We enjoyed some of the best snorkeling I've ever seen with beautiful reefs, lots of fish, eels, even sharks! After snorkeling, he took us to a deserted island and cooked up a delicious seafood lunch over an open fire while we hand fed the stingrays. It was fantastic! http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8AaNmLhw0atWLu

Key West

Lance & I took the boys to Key West for a couple days of father/son time: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8AaNmLhw0atWLd

West Virginia / Tennessee

We were all set to go to the Bahamas for the holiday weekend, but the weather didn't cooperate. It was forecast to rain all weekend in the islands, so we came up with plan "B" at the last minute: Attend the family reunion in Princeton, WV and then head to Pigeon Forge, TN to see Dollywood. Unfortunately, the rain followed us there, too and we came home early. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8AaNmLhw0atWK7

Falling Creek Camp

I took the boys to Falling Creek Camp near Asheville, NC for their annual Father / Son Weekend. The weather wasn't the greatest, but we made the best of it. The boys had a GREAT time --Justin can't wait to go back later this summer with his friend, Nick.
