Grand Cayman: Day 2

If I could only sleep past 7 am, things would be even better! I'm such a creature of habit. I'm pretty sure Josh could sleep until noon everyday (I don't understand how he can do that!). Luckily I took my 4th nap of 2008 yesterday...it was lovely! I've never been a napper, but apparently, that's what you do on an island!

Josh and I started off our day with LarKar and Kara's parents, Judy and Keith (rock stars in their own right) on a little trip. We went to visit the Grand Old House, which is where the wedding will be! Although the lighting will be a bit different for the wedding, I was so happy to look around and get tons of ideas for pictures. I even made Josh be the model (see below :o) We then went to the Marriott, which is where Lar and the guys will be getting ready and where Lar and Kara will be having their first look. Yaye! The hotel actually has lagoon in the middle of it...with baby turtles!!! I'm excited to take pictures here as well.

Josh and I had a bit of R & R in the afternoon...throwing a football with Lar on the beach and hanging out with Kara's extended family. They are so gracious and fun! The Welcome Party in the evening was super fun. The Royal Palms Beach had amazing food and yummy drinks. I've become a big fan of the Cayman Lemonade and the rest of the girls have become fans of the nutty banana drink...or as one person called it by the end of the night, a slutty dirty banana :o) Delicious whatever you call it.

We are ready for the big deal today. We are in GO mode, and ready to rock the day out with pictures for a lifetime! Off to the salon just now...enjoy the pics below!

Smoking guns (I took it right by the Teki torch :o)

The Flying Josh:  I really think that next time you are considering someone to take your pictures, you should ask yourself, "Would your photographer do this for you?"  Josh's motto: Go big or go home.  Side note...only a minor scar on the knee resulted from this near death jump.

Grand Old House:  Just imagine a beautiful bride with a flowing white dress...instead of Kung Foo Josh
