Thanks for putting some pictures of Katie. She is a doll. I am so happy that you are having such a great time. I think we need to plan a family trip to Costa Rica instead of Cancun,
Glad to hear you had a wonderful time in Costa Rica!
Wow it looks like you had a great time! I can't wait until Troy and I can take a vacation like that. Maybe I shouldn't hold my breath, it may be another 20 years before we do :) (you know, dental school, kids, etc). I am lovin this blog thing and keeping up to date on all your fun!
