Graduation and Graduation Party

Jackson was beyond blessed as his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins came together to celebrate his KINDERGARTEN GRADUATION!

The Appetizer

I met Natalie when she moved to Tyler about a year ago.  For her fortieth birthday, six of us travelled to the island of Jamaica.

Vangie and Crystal did a great job planning the trip; we stayed at Iberostar Grand Hotel at Rose Hall where we were each referred to as M'lady.

We got settled into our rooms and the sky cleared just in time to see the sunset off Christy's balcony. 

First taste of the Caribbean!

Natalie's friend Gerri joined us from Louisiana.

We kayaked, snorkeled and sailed.

The sun has set on this vacation, but this was only a taste. The feast comes in two weeks as Bill, Jackson and I head to the Bahamas!
