St. Thomas


We are home from St. Thomas!
It was a great trip- too fast though. Sadly, there are not too many pictures because we spent most of our time in the pool and pools and cameras don't mix. 14 of us went, and unfortunately we didn't get a picture of everyone- but we still had a fun time.
Brooks got to bond with Grandma Elly- he chatted up a storm for her, he sang with Grandma Sue, and kicked in the pool like swimmer with PopPop Jim. We roomed with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Juan so he got to spend a lot of time with them.
He was a great traveler again- I am so proud of this kid and how flexible he has been. There were dinner reservations for 8pm every night which is probably the worst time for him because he is falling asleep then- not already passed out, and not happy- just tired. However he only melted down the first night (and that was a big travel day plus it was disgustingly humid). Every other night he did great and fell asleep so we could eat in peace.
He LOOOOVED the pool, and was a little scared of the waves in the ocean. All in all- we had a great time and thank Eric's parents for getting everyone together!

Ready to go swimming! (he kind of looks tan here- but he is not)



Do you see anyone in this picture besides Brooks and Eric?


Happy camper even when shopping


We went to visit our favorite bar in St. Thomas and were disappointed that the couple we have known for 9 yrs retired- B ate my face for the picture.



Out to lunch- I guess he didn't like what Aunt Sarah had to say


When all else fails- B loves to 'read' the menu


I HATE when people take pictures of their babies with beer bottles- but B stole the coaster at lunch and ate it- don't think ill of us :)


We took a ferry to St John for a whopping 30 minutes, long enough to snap some pics with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Juan




Happy to go swimming again

First time in the ocean- the waves were scary







4 generation of Meyers at the beach!

Happy as can be when we went back to the pool

Last night there- before he fell asleep at dinner
