what could be better?

What could be better than:

Swimming in the beautiful turquoise blue ocean?

Being at the beach?

Giving your favorite cousin a kiss?

Trying to fill some big shoes?

Having fun with your aunt?

Being snuggled together in a bed?

Being with your sisters?

Playing on the beach with your uncle?

Swimming with your daddy?

Digging in the sand?

Taking a walk with your mom?

Being with your whole family?

Taking your first trip to Hawaii?

What could be better?

Nothing!

so, we left russ and whit in nyc, where they stayed an extra day or so...and we took off for the bahamas....paradise island to be exact...we are staying at the one and only ocean club...it's a really beautiful hotel...you might have seen it in 'casino royale', the last james bond...anyway...it's all about turqouise water, blue sky and palm trees, swaying in the breeze...in the afternoon some clouds may roll in...but, it's really beautiful...the babies are having fun with the pool...the cousins are now old enough to be playing together and want to be with each other...very fun..can be pretty noisy also...so for the next few days...this is where i'll be hanging...drinking my virgin strawberry daiquiris...having a massage or two...and enjoying the sun...don't worry, be happy!

i love ny
