We went to Roatan on June 11 with our family and friends. We had so much fun playing and relaxing with everyone. We all went to a pig roast on Thursday night and had a blast. The guys went "fishing" and we spent the rest of Friday at West Bay. Everyone enjoyed the snorkeling and cool water... Saturday some went to West End some went to the children's home. Mom and I had great massages at Ban Suerte. Then it was time for the Wedding!

Josh planned the Honeymoooooon as surprise for me.
We went to three resorts and loved them all. They were each in different areas of the island so it was nice to explore different territory. We enjoyed snorkeling, eating and hiking. We both left our cameras, BUT Josh to the rescue! Josh found a disposable water proof camera in the gift shop to document our adventures =)
Here we are (wet rats) at the end of our snorkel extravaganza with Ricky and Ty.

We headed back to Texas on the 21st, Father's Day, bearing gifts of Bodden Coconut bread for the padres. We stayed at my parents' efficiency for the week... Josh worked for a couple of days and I finished up reception duties.
Galveston
The Minnesota and Ohio Johnsons came to visit! They were vacationing in Galveston. We were able to go see them and stay with Paul and Shirley. We had a lot of fun! I experienced my first ever crab hunt in a little pond behind the condos. It was hilarious and quite fruitful! We caught something like 35 crabs, on CHICKEN LEGS! I have never seen such greedy animals... They all met their delicious demise when the rest of the family gathered in Chappell Hill. Nana and Teri, Steve, Dub and Ann all came for the weekend and we were able to spend a little bit of time with them and share some pictures from the wedding. It was fun to have almost everyone together and to meet Mike and Erin's Josh!
Tahu Cameron Wedding
On the 27th we had the privilege of witnessing Dougal and Carrie's ceremony. It was a beautiful wedding and FUN reception.
Beautiful ceremony, great band, great food!
Our picnic was on Sunday the 28th. We had a blast. It was awesome to see so many of our family and friends together. It meant a lot to us to celebrate with everyone! The picnic was a whirlwind for me........ sorry no pictures :-(
We started packing on Monday and headed to Arkansas on Tuesday (Thankfully we did a "prewedding move in" and brought all of our stuff up to the rent house in May!) SO... with our fully loaded vehicle we made the journey from Chappell Hill, Texas to Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Dog in tow.
The 4th of July
We started setting up our house. The kitchen and major stuff is done, we just have to decorate now. We celebrated our big move and the independence of our country on the 4th with burgers, roasted corn and quick trip to the lake.
1 month anniversary! ... we are cornballs... and unemployed (temporarily) :) ....We found out that the Illinois River is only about 6 minutes down our road. It is much like the Guadeloupe/San Marcos... SO we floated the river! It was a blast! We had Thai for dinner and saw Public Enemy :)
We are having fun here and I like AR much more than I anticipated. I knew I would love being here with Josh, but I had no expectations of enjoying the state itself. I am happy to say I am truly enjoying it!
I just love you two!!
