Kara and I just returned from a fabulous week-long Carnival cruise to the Western Caribbean. We flew from Greensboro to Miami and the ship sailed to four beautiful ports: Grand Cayman, Roatan, Belize, Cozumel. The best part of any cruise for me is the food, and this was no exception. ...

It's over :(
We had a wonderful time and great travels to and from the beach. I won't bore you with the details of today, so here are some pictures that didn't make it into the other posts.
Enjoy!

Today was soo relaxing. We slept in late and headed back to Skull Creek Boathouse for brunch. It, again, was fantastic and I forgot to take pictures. I had "drop doughnuts" which looked like giant hushpuppies rolled in sugar. It came with eight doughnuts but I quickly bartered two of ...

Ahh...today was awesome!
We started out with tennis at 7:30. I won 6-1, 6-1—not as good as I had hoped, but not too shabby.
Then we went down to the beach. While there, Kara had the fabulous idea to have Flamingo's Doughnut Cafe for dessert for lunch. So we punctuated our water ...

Today started off at 7:30 with four sets of tennis: 6-0, 6-1, 6-2, 6-0. My goal this entire week has been to win three straight sets at 6-0 but I can't seem to do it. Maybe tomorrow.
The beautiful weather magnified the enjoyment of the beach and pool. I did try-out ...

Our vacation is halfway over but today was great.
We decided to skip tennis this morning so we could finally sleep in. It was refreshing.
For breakfast, we headed to Flamingo's Doughnut Cafe which is located right outside the Sea Pines gate. I'll let the pictures do the explaining.

Today started with tennis at 7:45. It seemed a bit cooler so my mom and I played three sets. 6-0, 6-1, 6-1. I'm down to one racket from three after breaking a string each day so far. Let's hope that trend doesn't continue!
The squirrels here are really tame and photogenic.
We ...

The day started off at 6:45 AM. Usually that would irk anyone on vacation, but if you want to play tennis in Hilton Head during the summer, morning's the only way to go. My mom and I played for about an hour and ten minutes after which point I collapsed ...

To celebrate Kara's mom's retirement, Kara and I thought it would be nice to treat her and my mom to a week at the beach.
Our mothers arrived yesterday afternoon from Motown and we spent the evening catching up. We watched My Life in Ruins with the chick from My Big ...

A politically correct Christmas poem...sent by a friend.
Twas the month before Christmas
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand.
See the PC Police had taken away
The reason for Christmas—no one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About shepherds and wise men and angels ...
