Trip to Turks

Heath and I made our annual trip to Turks + Caicos last week and as always had the most amazing time.  This year we were also celebrating my 30th birthday so it was extra special :)
Here are some of our pictures, you can see the extended version here.


On our first night, they were having their weekly BBQ where they play movies on a huge screen outside.  Heath and I had a great view from the hot tub :)


It storms in Provo daily, but it quickly passes by.  The colors are so beautiful when the clouds roll in.


I have actual proof that Heath does relax.





Last year we visited Amanyara, a crazy beautiful hotel on the island, and went back again this year.  I was first drawn to them because they have a half omnivore/half vegetarian menu, and when I saw the pictures I knew we had to visit.





It is by far one of the most beautiful places I could ever imagine.  It's a very secluded resort, completely off the beaten path.



We also ventured to another part of the island called Chalk Sound or Sopadilla Bay.  The water is such a unique color, much lighter than Grace Bay.  The pictures just don't capture how vibrant the color really is.



We took a boat over to another island called Parrot Cay one morning.  It takes about 30 minutes to get there from Provo.




The beach there has a very Hamptons feel to it, aside from the water color :)

Merci Me Ha!

For our 5th anniversary (June 6th, 2013) we're going to invite everyone to celebrate with us in Turks so please come!!!

It's only a 1 hour flight from Miami. A lot of hotels offer suites with 3+ bedrooms so families can stay together - it's much cheaper!!!
