vacation pics
2006 @ 7:00 am
Since I don’t have any knitting pics, you get vacation pics instead! In knitting news, I’ve got two knitting dates today. MJ and I are headed to Brooklyn General for Knitting Breakfast at the suggestion of a great gal I met in my sewing class there. We started last week and it’s lots of fun! It’s a small class… only three people. I’m making some pj pants, but have already screwed them up. I cut one of the hips on the XS line instead of S. grrr. Oh well. I tried to do some practicing, but I am missing the presser foot on my sewing machine. Let’s not even get into it.
My second knitting date is with the Spiders this evening at The Point, yay! I’ve just finished a pixie hat for MJ, which I will photograph as soon as she wears it. I’m also working on the Phildar tank, but am rapidly losing interest as the weather turns. I may have to store it for Spring. I haven’t looked at my stash in so long, I wonder what’s even in there! A new project to come soon.
Okay, on to the photos…
For the full album of almost 200 pics, click here… consider yourselves warned.
We are ready to go! I took MJ’s passport photo myself 
MJ loves the water! We are swimming in the Labrolette Bay at Windjammer Landing in St. Lucia.
Daddy plays peek-a-boo under water.
Now in Barbados, Dahved shows us the entire island. We had a ten hour tour!
Dahved’s surf “shack” perched on the Soup Bowl at Bathsheba. It’s one of the top surfing locations in the world and a gorgeous, quiet place.
MJ and Dad smile with no teeth
I’m a pirate! A surfer alternative to the pink sun bonnet.
Walking with mom.
Watching the waves come in.
Standing on the shoreline.
mmmm, salty!
You are warned not to swin on the East coast of the island, but there is a “pool” that gaurds from the waves under a large rock near Dahved’s place.
We had a great trip and lots of quality family time. Can’t wait to do it again next year!

What a wonderful vacation! Everyone looks so relaxed and sunshiny. Love the baby-passport–that will be pretty funny a couple of years from now.
See you tonight!
Wow! All these pics look beautiful… You guys look so cute playing with MJ!
What a big girl she’s becoming! Looks like you had a great time. I’m so jealous
Looks like it was a wonderful vacation. It was great to meet Mia last night, she is even more adorable in real life.
I am all kinds of jealous now. MJ looks so happy! You all do, of course. And you look super skinny and fabulous in that photo! Thanks for sharing the photos, I needed a “virtual vacation” today.
So cute! Glad you guys got some R&R and some fun with MJ! Those pics of her with her papa are priceless.
You look fantastic! May we all look that after having a baby! You give me hope! 
Woohoo, vacation! Portland is grey and drizzly right now, so the Caribbean looks extra fantastic. Now I miss the Bahamas.
what a fabulous vacation for a fabulous family! i say pirate MJ should bring some of that pirate baby fashion back to Park Slope. she’d be the coolest baby on the avenue , barrrr none!
What CUTE pictures! MJ looks so happy - as do you and the hub. Looks like you guys had a fabulous time. See you at The Point!
