Sunkissed

I'm Irish so I don't get tan, per se, but my freckles all get really dark.  Mckay is legitimately tan.  We are both happy.  Or at least, we were until we came home to 16 inches of new snow on top of the 20 we already had.  Last night Mckay shoveled our cars out for an hour and a half.  We were ready to turn back.  I think he said "we need to move" at least ten times, sigh.  Here are some pictures of brighter days: 

 Puerto Rico

 Devil's Bay, Tortola
 Antiga
 Diamond Waterfall, St. Lucia
 Hiking through the huge boulders at Devil's Bay.
 Couldn't get enough
 Super healing sulfur mud (says Louis XVI) that ruined our suits
 The Pitons, St. Lucia


It was a lovely getaway.  Despite the snow we are happy to be back. 
I missed our sweet, little home and happy {real} life.

It looks like this definitely made up for being sick on your honeymoon. Think warm thoughts!

I just saw you comment on my blog and you seriously have everything you need to make a headboard other than a staple gun. I was able to borrow one from a friend. I had the people at home depot cut the board the exact size I needed. It ended up costing me about $50 to make.

Looks like it was a much needed get-a-away. Sorry about all the snow, I don't miss the snow at all! I'll try and send some sunshine your way :)

You need more pictures and, technically, your heritage is from Scotland, not Ireland, but for all practical purposes, it's probably pretty mixed anyway. Love the sunny getaway. Wish I were there!!! And, I'm so happy you are home and safe.
