Chris has been so good to me, and to top it all off he just finished a long project that I couldn't have done with out him. I've been swamped with school and we have been in need of a kitchen table but haven't really found anything that we liked. After a little searching Chris bought us a table from ksl for only $65. It was everything we had been looking for except it was light pine with forest green, yes forest green. He spent probably 4 days sanding it down, painting black, staining it, and there may have been a blow torch involved.
Chris was able to go shark diving while we were in the Bahamas! This may sound insane but they were actually really calm and he even touched one. The sharks were anywhere from 6-10ft long, which I don't think was too bad. It was a great experience for him because he has always wanted to go... Except now we wants to go free diving with a shark. I couldn't go because I am not certified yet or I would have been right there!
All of these pictures are just to show how clear the water was. It was like looking through glass. The dark spots are actually just grass on the ocean floor. We went snorkeling and saw a lot of cool fish. The water was really warm and our resort was on the best side of the island and was more secluded.
I'm a little bit behind because right as I finished finals for my summer semester we went on vacation to the Bahamas for 4 days! After our fun vacation we returned home and packed up our car, then drove the 2,500 miles back home in 1.5 days. We were in a hurry because we wanted to see my bother, sister in law and nephews who were visiting from Milwaukee before they left. After a fun day with the family we headed back to South Ogden to find a place to live before school started. We were able to move into our apartment the Friday before my classes begun and now I am in the full swing of things. So here are a couple of posts of everything that's happened over the last month. The first and second picture is from the cruise ship leaving Florida for the Bahamas, the third and fourth are entering Freeport Bahamas, and the last is the view of the back of our hotel where the bay is. There is a ferry that goes back and forth every hour to another part of the island so you don't have to take a taxi and go around!
Finals are over for the summer and I am so excited. I hate to say that I have been in hibernation studying and although it definitely paid off I have not taken many pictures lately. Sorry! Last minute we found out we can go on a cruise ship and stay in the Bahamas for dirt cheap;) We are so lucky to be able to go. We have some fun things planned that you will just have to wait to hear about! Miss everybody and we'll be seeing some of you soon!
