Update on Duke

Well, Dr. Evans just called me and YUP! Duke is sick. They are sending off his blood work to see if he ate something toxic, it could be the easter Lilly that we have in the house or the mushrooms that we have in the yard,,, who knows. But the doc said that hes defianately in pain and very uncomfortable. So, hes at the vet for the day so they can watch him and he will be able to come home at five. Bill will go and get him later today. The vet is sending us home with a slew of meds for Duke. Hope he's feeling better soon.

Super Duke is SICK

Our big boy isnt feeling very good. He was up vomiting through out the night. He vomitted three times. Maybe he got into something toxic....poor thing!


Here he is at the vet,,, just laying on the floor. This is odd for him especially with another dog in the waiting room...... I am waiting on hearing from the doctor to see what is wrong. I really hope he feels better soon!

Marathon Key with Bills Brother Tom

The house where we stayed on Key Colony Beach in Marathon Key
The plane ride down was great. There were only 12 people booked on the whole flight so Bill and I decided to spread out a bit and I actually sat across fromm him.


On the final approach into Marathon I kept noticing these little tiny islands that had these houses on them. I decided to snap a pic. I guess you gotta take a boat from the main Island to get there?

Pelicans were everywhere! So were iguanas, but I never got a picture of those things.


What a pretty nice beach house huh?

Getting the boat ready to go out for the day.

Bill and I both put 50 block on and still got way too much sun! Bill looked so funny with all the sunscreen on his face.



Getting ready to go in!





Bill's bother Tom and his girlfriend Lisa'

Bill trying to hide his beer. Shhhhhh,,, his mom doesnt know he drinks!

Lisa and Tom

Right about now we're frying!

So, right across from the beach house we were staying at is the Cabana Club, we had dinner there. Ok food,,,, HORRIBLE service. Dont even ask.


The only pic we got at dinner,,, NO FLASH!


The pier at the Cabana Club


Billy trying to figure out what he wants for dinner,,, he went with the grouper :)

My little girl is not so little any more :(

Its times like this when I wonder, how is it humanly possible to not LOVE animals, not just dogs, but ALL animals. Lucy is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever known. She was already asleep when I picked her up to take her outside before we cashed in for the night. She's couldn't quite wake up, she wanted to keep sleeping! :)

Our Trip to Nassau, Bahamas with Jen and Brandon

On the plane headed to Nassau. We got up at 430 this morning, we were sooooo tired, but not anymore! :)

We stayed at the Sheraton Cable Beach Resort. It was very nice and everyone at the hotel was so friendly.








Since we got to Nassau so early, our rooms were not ready when we checked in at 11:30. Normal check in was not until 3:00. Although it was raining out, we decided to grab lunch at the beachside grill on property while they got our rooms ready for us.




Hungry Billy looking for his food. :)


Jen obsessed with her new camera.


waiting for lunch,,, I was sooo hungry!


Paying for lunch.


Jen and I went down to the beach to take a few pics while the guys were paying for lunch






Since it was raining out, and we could not go down to the beach,,, we decided to go to the Atlantis to do some looking around.


riding in the taxi,,, all taxis in Nassau are vans,,,, weird huh?



Mr. and Mrs. Adams



Do I look stiff in this photo? hahaha!


Billy Boy
Pete and Repeat

Random pics around the Atlantis Hotel. The rain forced alot of people inside and it suddenly got very busy with all the people inside and off the beach.










Pictures from the Aquarium inside the Atlantis...It was HUGE.







Apparently this is a pretty popular chair inside the Atlantis,, the line to get your picture taken in it was pretty long. There was Atlantis Staff there controlling all the comotion. Nuts!


King and Queen Atlantis. :)

The Twins,,,, again,,,,,

Bill got some very interesting pics of some artwork around the Atlantis. These were in and outside the Casino.


What is this? Snakes? Medusa? It's made of glass, that much I do know.

This thing looked like ice..... kind of strange

My FAVORITE! Too bad I didnt win enough money in the casino to buy those dang shoes! $495.00 OUCH!

The Atlantis Marina. If you want to see some of the most amazing boats (yachts) in the world, just come here.
The Mr. and Mrs.

Not sure why I love it here,,,, I just do.

The Twins.....in yet ANOTHER picture together :)


It was so nice just walking around here.

Bill playing around with the camera,,, if you could only see ALL the pictures he took of me, and mt nose and feet and eyes and who knows what else...... :)


Bill discovered he could take pics in Sepia... pretty neat!

Finally, some beach time. After it rained all day,,, I doubted the sun would ever make an appearance... it was late,,, but it did!


See this waterfall? I literally had to BEG the kids to quit playing for just a sec so we could get a picture.

Aw! The newly weds.


Bill kept saying "wait, one more!" the sun was setting,, it was so pretty outside


About to leave for dinner.

Well, we got lucky tonight. We were able to get last minute resercations at former Iron Chef champion, Bobby Flay's new restaraunt Mesa Gril. It was AMAZING, but bring the checkbook if you know what I mean! Great food, even better atmosphere!

Outside Mesa Gril, waiting on our table to be ready.


waiting four our dinner,,,, we later found out Sean Connery was here, at this very moment. He now lives on the Island and has taken Bahamian Citizenship...... nice!


The Cove, where the Mesa Gril is located. It was soooo beautiful!!

At the airport in Nassau, getting ready to come home. By the looks of the departure board,,,,maybe they will cancel our flight! :)

Billy waiting patiently for our flight back home. :(

Walking out to the plane,,,, :( Do we REALLY have to go? We had a great time, but next time we are definately going to stay longet than 1 night!
