It was a big surprise! Adrian and Torry did some scheming and got me a ticket to St. Kitts for my birthday to visit Bethany! I knew for about 3 or 4 weeks that I was going and had to keep it a secret! There were many close calls......... but we were able to pull it off!
She was completely shocked!

Hiking Mt. Liamuiga
This was a date palm that Beth found and decided mightlook pretty cool in some kind of vase....
Adrian took us up to the 7th floor. It was such a gorgeous view!
The 1st attempt at leaving the island....... (We had a miscommunication in departure time.....)Once we realized the mistake...... we made a mad dash to the airport!! :)
No such luck...... Even though I was at the airport 30 minutes before the flight, I was denied boarding. This is the 1st time I have ever missed a flight in my life!! I knew Torry was going to be steaming!!! I waited while Beth finished picking up the kids from school.
Beth was "sad" that I "had" to stay one more day!
We went by Jaimie and Jeremy's house before heading home.
My 2nd attempt at leaving the island! We were almost late againbecause we couldn't find Damon's shoe!
Success!
