Today is our last day. We went to Rose Hall, the original house. Where the resort is located use to be a sugar plantation. The tour of the house had some great stories. One of the women that lived there was called the white witch, she killed all 3 of her husbands. So of course [...]

We are beginning to think Jamaica has nothing but sunny days, every day is been just about perfect. Today Missy and Courtney took a ride on a catamaran. Steve hit the golf course for the second time and broke 100, shot a 98! Little miss Riley hung out at the pool looking fabulous.
We have met [...]

Today we did our normal morning pool routine. In the afternoon Missy hit the spa and got her birthday massage, while Steve went and hit the golf course. In the evening they had a bonfire at the beach, so Riley got to roast marshmallows.

We brought some sand toys and she dug right [...]

Missy’s friend Suzelle asked us to bring down a laptop with us, for the resort. She was the one that put Rose Hall in touch with Steve for the web site. When we arrived Steve was checking in, and Missy went to deliver the laptop to the fitness center. The guy she gave the computer [...]

For those that don’t know, we are headed to a week in Jamaica from July 4 - 11. Steve did a website for a resort in Jamaica and part of the deal was a week at the resort.
We decided that a beach trip is not the best for a 3-month old, so Avery is staying [...]
