Fun with Nana & Papa

Image
Grandpa Papa and Grandma Nana came to our house in March to watch the boys while we went to Turks & Caicos. Here are some pictures of all the fun they had! We are so grateful they came, and that they kept the boys so well entertained!! Needless to say, the boys were very sad to see them go, as seen here in Tanner's face. We love you Grandpa Papa and Grandma Nana!

We stayed in a condo that was inland, and used a rental car to explore every corner of the island. Here are some pictures of our adventures! We went on a boat tour that included snorkeling, conch harvesting, iguana island, and eating the conch that was caught for us! Conch is the national dish here, and we ate it almost every day. Conch fritters, conch ceviche, conch salad, conch burgers! This shell is one that was caught that day, we ate the conch and then took the shell home with us. It's 10-15 years old, which we thought was fitting for our anniversary. This is Jeremy cleaning out the conch shell. He used the claw from the conch as a tool to scrape off all the coral and moss.
