Good evening Nana's!

Thought I'd post some links to the video we took today for scuba diving.....it was a blast!! We're going again either tomorrow or Thursday again.

After scuba diving I took Janel to a romantic place called "The Old Man & the Sea" (no comments from Kathy needed LOL) for dinner....it was also excellent!

Dawn when i saw your post i got a pit in the bottom of my stomach that CHUCK would be the next post
I was right



Denise, those are such sweet photos. I love all the hair she has. Mine were all bald for a year or longer How much does she weigh now? She looks so tiny


Chcuk have fun at the worlds. I would say I will miss you but at least i can get a chance to snag the top while your away

Ok now I am going back to look at Gregs photo stuff.

Greg, those were very nice videos.
Gee dont they make a wet suit for the Jolly Green Giant size??
Did you like to scuba dive? How long did you get to scuba? Looks like it was lots of fun.



The dinner looked very nice, although windy. Did your food get cold with the wind or did you gobble it down too fast

As for the Old man & The Sea. I will honor your wish of no comments from me, but just this once. You caught me in a generous mood.

But I did have a couple of good ones for that name

Hi Everyone!

I'm sorry ladies I really blew it! That should tell you how tired I was. It didn't even occur to me to count! You know it's not the hare that won the race--it was the slow and steady turtle. Yeah, no wise cracks.

Wow, Greg to those videos!!!!!!!!!! Love this Aruba experience! Thank you soooo much for sharing! I have the same questions Kathy does--how was the experience?

Went and did my monthly BIG shopping trip. Stephanie and Elizabeth came along to help. And bless my daughter's heart, she carried them all in!

The sun is peaking out maybe it will shoot those temps up a little. It is only 61 degrees for June 3!

I missed Chuck to tell him to have a great time but duh I don't think we have to worry about that!

I'll check back a little later.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Dawn,
I always time my big shopping when Greg will be here to carry the stuff in too. That is so nice isnt it. Its tiring to go and walk all around the stores, pay for it and I bag my own to save $$ then to have to put it all away after I get home, I sure dont want to carry it in unless I have to. I am pooped after all that.

Tonight I need to shop for mom, nothing heavy but so many details to remember for her and knowing I will be returning most of it makes it even harder to go and get. But I will.


We are up to 70 right now. time to put on some shorts!!! So far our thunderstorms have passed us by.

Scuba diving was awesome!!

Its not as easy as I thought it would be?! I thought you just put the regulator in your mouth and go diving, but you have to learn how to breath properly and clear water from your dive mask and regulator while under water......otherwise you can panic and get yourself into trouble really fast!

It was so much more fun and intense then regular "snorkeling". We were down for about 40 minutes at a depth of 30 feet. You put weights on to help make yourself "float evenly" in the water. If you don't breath properly you can take to much air in your lungs and start to float to the surface.....to little and you sink to the bottom.

We did see a lot of fish, eels, sting rays, unexploded bombs from WWII.....our instructor told us not to "tap" on them.....DUH!!

We're going back out diving again tomorrow to a 400 foot ship wreck called the "Antilla".....we're excited to do it again!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Greg, thats great. I am glad both of you liked it enough to go back and do it again. I am sure it will be much easier the 2nd time around.
I wouldnt need to weight to sink me, I sink without any help at all

watch our for sunburn on that boat!!!

Evening:

Kathy: I know that Izzy looks really small in the picture with Daddy holding her up....but she is 8lbs 15oz as of last week.....so she is gaining great....but even I thought she looked small in that picture....

Greg: glad your having a great time....I really dont think I would want to scuba.....I wont even snorkle.....I dont like fish touching me
The first time I went to Castaway..there were these clear fish that started swiming by me and that was it.....I was out of the water pretty darn fast.....
That's why this past cruise I didnt even go in the water....

Dawn....I'm with you on the temp here.....what the heck is going on???? are we ever going to get summer weather?

Have a good one all
Denise

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Denise, glad to hear Izzy os growing nicely. She just looked so small I was worried she was loosing weight. That can happens sometimes. Nice to know she is doing great I am anxious for my next grandchild to be born. But its along wait til January

Kathy

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

I didnt count but we must be within 2 or 3 from the top so I am going for it before one of the guys jumps in while i'm sleeping

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

We had thunder storms again tonight.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Coming back from the store tonight traffic slwoed way downa nd I saw flares along the road then way up ahead there was a semi that the engine and cab were all burned up. Cop was there and so was another truck and driver. There were a couple of men standing around so I am hopeful one of them was the driver and he was ok?
It was nasty looking

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

I think this might be it??
