How I wish...

Two Mega Yachts at Port Louie.

Gabe & I on the dock in front of St. George's

So, this week I have been taking over a job, of another girl who is off the island. Let me just say, it rocks. (I actually did this job back in Dec too, when she was back in the states.) Pretty much, I buy and deliver provisions for the mega yatchs and sailing yachts that visit Grenada. And, some of these boats need A LOT of provisions, let me tell ya. I will be hauling two large grocery carts full of food, through the store sometimes.
The best part, is actually getting to see these beautiful boats up close. They are AMAZING.. I got to walk on one the other day and was in awe (although, it had bad art on the walls, which made me really sad. ha!) What would it be like, to have your own yacht? Crazy!! Oh yeah, and this last picture I had to put, because who knows....you might just have to make a quick get away on your private helicopter.
P.S. If you look under the helicopter, you will see the ski boat garage that can retract the boat in & out. That is pretty sweet-diggity-dog.

They're READY!! almost.

The Proud Poppa!

The time has come...and boy are we going banana's! ha! We decided it was time to cut off Ren's banana pod and get those babies ripe! There is a special process, which I don't really understand, for getting your banana's to ripen and not go rotten. Let's hope we do it right, cause then we will be having some major banana split parties!!
Gabe of course had to help and thought the best way to do that, would be tearing all the leaves into little pieces. Very fun.

Broken Nose?

Yesterday, we went to the playground like usual, and came home with a little souvenir! Gabe tripped while she was running and hit the side of her nose and under her eye pretty good. It is hard to see it very good in the video, but the side of her nose was really purple and red for a while. Some of the Mom's thought she might have broken her nose, but after a more thorough examination, by the upcoming Dr. McDaniel, we decided she was going to be fine. Here is a little video I shot of her yesterday. My favorite part is the very end, when she gives me the pirate eye. ha!
P.S. Snowy balls is what Gabe calls Kuulei's hamster. (real name, Snowball.)

Bubbling around!

Bubbles, Bubbles!! They seem to bring us a lot of joy on those certain days when you just need to get out of the house. Gabe always gets so proud when she catches one on her little wand.

Yoga Class!

Lately, I have been going to Lindsay's yoga class at LaLuna resort! It is incredible that we do the class right off the beach. Here is a little peek at it!

Valentines Dinner at the Weirs!

Every Sunday, we are privileged to eat a delicious Sunday dinner at the Weir's home. They always make such remarkable food and this past Sunday was no different! In fact, Sara & Jayson really went the extra mile in my opinion! They did a special Valentines Dinner complete with homemade fabric roses, seashell candles, personalized name tags & fluffy heart & flower-shaped rolls!! It was so beautiful! Here are some pictures! We hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines Day!!
P.S. I can't forget the dessert!! It was my favorite part of the entire meal! SOOOO Good!!

The 6th year.

I decided to start this post out with this picture. It is one of the pictures I took with me to Grenada and everytime I look at it, I smile. This picture was taken before Ren & I were even dating. We are standing next to our best friends, Heather & Chris (who are also married)! I remember how I felt that exact moment, when Renny put his arm around my back. I was surprised and pleased at the same time. I also like the look on Ren's face. He has said before that he was nervous to put his arm around me and I can tell by the look on his face, that he was (which secretly makes me smile!). This picture will always capture the brief moment between two people that started it all.

Married on Feb. 13th, 2003!

This shot is of us in Hawaii on our honeymoon. We liked to feed the pigeons, especially Gimpy.

Kisses for all.

On our cruise to Catalina Island!

8 months pregnant with Gabriel Jane McDaniel!

Gabe is a week old and this is what greeted me one morning.

Renny's brother, Tyson left for his mission in 2005!

Christmas time at my parents house!

Family Reunions forever. Ummm,...maybe not.

And, a big part of our marriage has been the continuous projects...

And more projects..

Just let me fix this...

(Ren) Oh yeah, honey. I tore out the wall & ceiling yesterday....no biggie!

My honey & I.

Well, here is a little post for old times sake. We are hitting our 6 year mark today, and I thought I would post a couple of pictures from things that have happened throughout our marriage. It takes so long to find any old pictures, because I automatically start looking at ALL our old pictures and then I want to put a million on here and then I end up running out of time..etc. Anyways, here are a couple of pics to remember the good old days.
P.S. Renny I love you. Buckajunktz!

Grenada's Indepedance Day!

This is the Cricket Stadium that is in Grenada. It has to be the largest building on the island!

These are the women in the guard.

They definitely like to represent. And, sometimes it is picture worthy.

Inspecting the guards.

This was my favorite part of the entire shabang! This guy in the band just started breakdancing!!

These were the boy & girl scouts. They had a specific march and swung their arms very high.

On Feb. 7th, we decided to be a part of the festivities for Grenada's 35th Independance Day! We took a bus to the cricket stadium in downtown St. George's and enjoyed watching the guards march around. We also got to hear the prime minister give a speech and see the boy & girl scouts take part in the celebration. My very favorite part, was when the band played and walked around. All of a sudden, there is this guy who steps out and starts pulling Michael Jackson moves! It was great!! Probably the most entertaining part of the day. ha! It was also fun to see the different outfits the Grenadians would come up with. Most of them are handmade and they can be pretty interesting!
