We took a break from the cold (or tried to!) and took a trip to the Bahamas! :) We drove in two days from Newton to Orange City Florida with my parents. On the way down we got stuck in Statesville in a huge snowstorm. The next morning we got up to drive some more, and we didn't get out of the snow until we were in Georgia!! We got to Florida and they were under a freeze warning. At least the sun was out and it was absolutely beautiful. It was so nice to see green plants and flowers growing! We two nights and a day and a half in Delan with a wonderful lady named Katherine. We attended dad's pastor friends church and had a wonderful time. Monday we left for Jacksonville and boarded the Carnival Fascination. We had a room with a balcony! It was so cold we had to keep our jackets and sweaters on outside! We took a day to explore the boat and the kids were absolutely amazed. We went to Freeport, Half Moon Cay, and Nassau. We took a pirate and historical tour in Nassau with Bailey and he loved it! We had the best breakfasts, lunches and dinners! They had a 24 hour pizzeria and you could get ice cream 24 hrs a day as well. :) The waiters made friends with the kids, you could tell they were missing their own children back home, wherever that was for them. The ship was absolutely beautiful, and so was the Bahamas. That is one of the prettiest places in the world to me. It was a wonderful vacation with our family - one that we will never forget! :)
