Scare of a Lifetime

We had a huge scare about 2 weeks ago. We came home from softball practice and Grant starting running fever. We started our normal regimen to reduce his fever and he went to bed. We had given him medicine throughout the night and around 2am we could hear moaning so we went to check on him. He was burning up, would not open his eyes, was rigid and had his left arm and left leg were pulled into flexion. My first thought was that he was having  a stroke or a seizure. Jeremy frantically called 911 and I held him in my arms waiting and praying. When the EMS arrived and took his vitals he had 105.3 and a heart rate over 200 and was still not responding. In the end after a trip to the hospital we were told he had a febrile seizure that lasted about 15 minutes. This is nothing that will affect his development; however, he could have another with a rapid increase in fever. It was a scare that we will never forget and are blessed to have healthy children.  We are blessed to have great neighbors that are family. Crystal came over to stay with the big kids and our parents were up within the hour. Through all the commotion and sirens amazingly Kennedy and Jaxon never woke.

Hard Rock



The downfall of our trip was our return flight home. We actually had an 8 hour delay due to a mechanical issue with the captain's seat that turned into a flight cancellation. We stayed another night and made a second attempt to return home to our babies!

Thank you mom and dad for keeping them. That had a great time and
were happy to spend time with their cousins too!




Spa Day and Golf

AMAZING




Cap Cana Punta Espada Golf Club


Amazing views of the ocean





Jeremy on vacation....just know he enjoyed himself




The guys drank fresh coconut juice directly from the tree on the course. They  were short one, and the a gentleman climbed to the top of the tree, cut it  and provided the 4th coconut like it was nothing. Jeremy tells the story much better than I!

Boggie Buggie Adventures



Salvaleon De Higuey

The area around the resort is surrounded by poverty. As we drove in our
 dune buggies, children passed half-clothed asking for money. 



On our excursion we visited a location were cocoa and coconuts were produced.
We also swam in this cave. It was about 60-70 degrees but was beautiful!
