Our Last Day in Turks & Caicos...

This was our last day to live it up! We beached, relaxed, and shell collected as long as we could before having to start packing, deflating floats, drying shells, and then getting ready for dinner!

In honor of Prince, we decided we would have one night where we all wore purple for dinner! And our incredible host also gave us the most beautiful table set-up in honor of our last night. Please note, that he even moved the table, so the sunset would set right between the palm trees and line up perfectly with the table... the spoiled us! It was the most perfect ending to such a special and incredible experience!

I ended with a few moonlight pictures of the property taken from the security tower and then a few pictures of the next morning as we waited for transportation to the airport!

Turks & Caicos Day Six...

This day was a fun little change of pace!

Us girls had planned a day of going to town for shopping and honestly, thought the guys would want no part of it! But Micah was ready to go do something, I was not a bit surprised that Roen didn't want to miss out on the shopping, and if you know Remi, he is not real keen on being away from his 'people'. We hit up two differnt shopping areas and had great luck in finding tees, gifts, local arts, and even stumbled upon an eating challenge that Roen just couldn't pass up. You can see the progression of the pictures from starving and excited, to hitting his full-o-meter, to accepting defeat, to the Wall of Shame! It was all very entertaining to say the least!

After we got back, we all prompting put on our swimmers and spent the rest of the day in the pool! So that our chef could have the night off, we ordered take-out pizza and we loved our easy dinner night that didn't require showers or getting dressed up! There was pool karaoke, cousin pool ball, and late-night Yahtzee, dominos, and Mexican Train. 

And I snapped a picture of the moon because it was magical! 

Turks & Caicos Day Five...

This was another glorious beach day! 

It seemed to be slower pace, some of us going down to the beach for sun, shell searching and snail hunting, while others enjoyed games with a view! I personally, did a bit of beach reading, floating, and exploring. I found tons of giant scallop shells over on the rocks that are washed up in high tide and then I explored the same rocks, but under water with Remi! While he found the snails, I found beautiful cone and conch shells. I was gathering all of these for a purpose, I promise. I do have a jar at home that I fill with shells from our travels, but on this trip, I had a particular purpose for these shells!

We ended the day with another incredible dinner! Music playing, cousin chatter, story-telling, the tropical breeze blowing, watching the sun set on another day in paradise... these dinners might have been my most favorite part of the whole trip!

The night ended with games over at the main house, and we had an absolute blast! If you haven't ever played Black Magic, it was a crowd pleaser and kept us entertained for hours!
