Here's a look at some of the underwater wildlife.
Trumpet fish
Sea Turtle. We saw two.
We saw many octopus on our night dive, they appear to be many different colors as they move.
Male seahorse, he is pregnant, they are brown.
A female seahorse is yellow. They are only 2-3 inches long and very docile. They hook their tails to the vegitation and move back and forth with the current.
This was a giant spiny lobster, they have no front pincher claws, but they have huge antenna.
This is a flamingo tongue snail, it is only about an inch-2 inches long. It is a mollusk that lives on the branch coral.
A large crab that we saw on our night dive.
Drum Fish.

Hey All! Yeah I know it has been a long time since I have updated my blog. I have been busy with school, Jeff's (Our) businesses, the boys and everything else that fits into a day.
The boys continue to grow too quickly. Here is a brief update on their happenings.
Blade is working hard in preschool and loving it. He now knows his whole name (Tarek and Jeff's too), he is writing his name, knows his phone number, his dad's cell phone number, his address, city and state, the pledge of allegiance and the poem Humpty Dumpty. He loves to go outside and shovel and push snow. I think he probably makes more of a mess that he is really cleaning, but I'll let him.
Tarek is slowly starting to talk, it is still hard to distinguish exactly what he is saying but I have a pretty good idea with most of it. He is still a thumb sucker and loves to stick his finger in his nose as he is sucking his thumb, which has led to many bloody noses. He has also been potty training since Christmas! He is doing a great job with it. I never imagined that he would be potty trained or near trained before he turned two.
Uncle Matt sent these shirts for Christmas.
This was the first sting ray that I saw. It was amazing.
We had a great time warm water diving.
Mom and the boys running on the beach when Jeff and I were out diving.
This shark is in the town square. What a fun picture!
Out to dinner!
Having fun playing in the white sand!
Notice the sandy hands.
You guessed it, the thumb in the mouth, right after the hand in the sand. Tasty!
It was a lot of fun watching the ships come in and go out on a daily basis.
Watching the sun set at the same time the ships were leaving. Boy, the sun goes down fast.
