Unfortunately, the day didn't start so great... The condo that Brandon's family has been staying in got broken into in the middle of the night. All of them were sleeping and the person slit the screened-in porch and was able to open the glass door. The person was able to quietly sneak through the condo (right past the cot Brandon was sleeping on) and get the money from Gramp's wallet (which was in the far back room...on the side table between the two twin beds). The police came, collected fingerprints, and are working to catch whoever did this. I am just SO THANKFUL no one got hurt! What a scary feeling this morning when Brandon came down to the beach to tell me what had happened. Please pray for a safe night for them tonight!!! And, now, let's not even talk about it...because it isn't going to ruin our fun time this week!!!
After all that hoop-la, we went on a GREAT dive. Today we went to the new Dive Tech, which has really built up since we were here in March. There was so much sea-life out today...it was a great dive!
I caught an AWESOME picture of Grandaddy with one of the 4 sea turtles we saw today!
When we got back from diving, we took Shane, Michelle, and Sam cliff diving at one of our favorite spots - Pedro's castle. They had a blast!!! (Brandon and I opted not to jump today. It was quite rough climbing up...and with wedding pictures tomorrow we thought we better not ruin our pretty faces!) Hopefully we'll go back again this week to share this place with the rest of Brandon's clan!
Sam was a total dare-devil and climbed up the rocks like a monkey. I don't think he got one scrape on him!
Michelle, on the other hand, got a little beat up while climbing back up....but she was an absolute trooper and I was so glad she made the jump! Welcome to the Cliff-Diver's Club to Shane, Michelle, and Sam!!! WOO HOO!
Dad and Shane were the "strong men" that helped people up. It was a good thing they were there!!!
This evening was our rehearsal dinner. I can't believe we are only 1 day from being married!!! I am SO EXCITED!!!
Tonight's sunset was a 10 on a 1-10 scale! The perfect back-drop for rehearsing for the wedding. Our wedding party includes Kasey and Taylor (Maids of Honor), Doug and Shane (Best Men) and Grandaddy (Minister). Plus me and Brandon - can't have a wedding without the bride and groom!!!
Rehearsal dinner was AWESOME!!! Brandon's family reserved a private table right on the beach...and it was the most beautiful atmosphere you could ask for. We had such a nice evening and ended up sitting there for 3 hours! Thank you SO MUCH to Doug and Sue for hosting such a wonderful dinner. Tomorrow night's dinner has A LOT to live up to!!!
We can't wait for tomorrow!!!! I'm planning on diving in the morning...then relaxing until I have to get ready. I think Brandon will chill on the beach for the most part. We are not planning to see one another until right before the ceremony.... Man, in less than 24 hours, we'll be MARRIED!!! YAY!!!
If I don't get to post tomorrow, I will definitely post the following day with all the fun details!!!
Miss everyone not with us!!!
