St Thomas (Nov 2014)

Our first vacation since Will was born. We stayed at the Ritz Carlton in St. Thomas and enjoyed the view of St. John on our own private beach. It was gorgeous and exactly what we needed. We knew the kids were in great hands with Nana and Papa, so we were able to relax and enjoy! A HUGE thanks to them for taking the kiddos!! Will started walking along furniture and walking behind/pushing things around while we were gone. He didn't want much to do with me for about two months after the trip. 
 We did a lot of reading and playing cards and had afternoon happy hours before going to dinner. 
 Tony learned how to drive a Hobby Cat in the ocean. I even joined him out there. We were out their when the afternoon showers were about to hit. He hightailed it in just in time for me to grab my phone that was left out on a lawn chair. Whew!

 When we weren't laying by the pool, we were laying on the hotel's private beach. 
 Our view over breakfast each morning
 We rented a jeep on St. John for the day and drove along the coast stopping at each beach. This was the last one of the day before sunset. 
 Roadies were considered legal, so Tony went old school for the beach. 
We stopped at a little bar in the middle of nowhere called "Shipwreck Landing"

This was one of my favorite views and most relaxing spots on the trip. 

 Maho Bay was by far our favorite - quite, calm, and beautiful! We could have sat there all day!
