surprises are the best!!!

my little sis surprised me, and it's not always easy to do that, and i LOVED it!!!! she came to visit us a few days before my parents were set to come, and i had no idea! i love surprises soooo much, and it doesn't get much better than family coming to visit your tropical life :)

 

it was quite the adventure for her to get to us too, and it involved me going to st. maarten to meet her and tipping a certain denzel $40 to get her and her luggage to me in time for our flight back to statia! haha love you denzel!!!

 

 

the boys were in love with having their kait around, and we went to the park and the beach and the stores and for walks, and just did what we do here with her. it was awesome!

she got to crack open a coconut and loved the nightly sunsets of course. doesn't get much more gorgeous than this people! (and i'm not talking about the sunset!)

 

she got a taste of dust's endonasal drain technique learned in chiro school when her ears got all plugged up, and she only gagged a little. i got to be the nurse and shine the flashlight :)

 

we had so much fun snorkeling and playing in the waves and building sandcastles and watching movies and killing spiders and eating chocolate chip cookie dough and popcorn and hiking and walking and chatting, and it was just pretty much amazing!!!!

she wasn't a fan of the hermit crabs that kept us company during our hike up the quill! we got her to pick one up and hold it long enough for a picture though! haha

 

since my little sis' bday was only a few days after she left, we made her a special pancake breakfast, and beckam was all about making her a 20! hard to believe my little kait is 20 already and soooo excited we got to be a little part of it with her :)

Love you two!! Looks like you had such a great time together :) Love the spider story - it reminds me of my tarantula story from my mission. Too funny!
