For Grant's 5 yrs photo shoot we went to the Crossroads district in Kansas City and Westport. We also took a detour to the river market and he found an apple he couldn't get enough of. ;o)

Here's the final blog of our vacation photos. We took a couple thousand photos and ended up with about 700 that we love so this is just a select few. Enjoy and check back soon for Grant's 5 year portrait session preview.

Coki Beach The Baths at Virgin Gorda, BVI

The couple climbing near the top of the shot gives you an
idea of the scale of these massive boulders.
The natural Lion's Head formation on the top of the Baths (we had
to wedge ourselves between the rocks and climb to get there but
the view was worth it!)

The Baths from the sea.
Docked in Spanish Town , BVINeltjeberg Bay, we had to hike to this bay from Dorthea Bay.
Along the hike there are ruins and old headstones from children
that had died in 1933. Kinda creepy but fun.
The beach at Cooper Island Beach Club. Cooper Island is an outer BVI
with no roads and only 4 private residences along with the private boutique
resort accessible only by boat or ferry from Tortola, BVI. We stopped and
ate at the restaurant on our boat charter. I had Roti, a curried chicken wrap which is
a traditional West Indian dish and it was delicious!
Magen's Bay, the most famous beach in St. Thomas.
Palms at Dorthea Bay
Overlook, what a view!Vessup Beach

This was our nap spot.

Bluebeard's Castle is now a mini resort overlooking Charlotte Amalie.
It was built around an old danish lookout tower but the hotel
is named after the Bluebeard pirate legend which states that he
built the tower to imprison his wife he later killed.
