2007 Allstate Sugar Bowl

2007 Allstate Sugar Bowl

Jake the Snake

Sorry mates, been a while since we logged our journey's of the Caribbean. So here is our second semester all at once. We will start you off with the bounty that Dominica has to offer. Me thinks that this landlover was put in the garden of Eden to scare off that serpent with his wicked shades and cancer stick in his mouth. Makes you want to stay in the water, eh mates. The Atlantic Side of the island and Cabrits (a fort 10 minutes from our house, w/ the cannons) is where these wee pirates explored.

Caden's finest moments

This little swabby refuses to use the latrine, even after many threats of walking the plank and "nandy" if he does one or deuce. Thinking that new "Cars" underwear would motivate those huggies right off his lil keister, we were wrong and he put them on his head and over his diaper. Every time lights go out, he thinks its Halloween, so we dressed him up as Buzz.

Sibling Rivalry

We caught some of the moments where Caden is showing love for his favorite lil sister in the world, and for the most part he treats her as such. But what the camera has not caught is a Hulk Hogan Guillotine Leg drop to the head and the classic Rashiki move of sitting on her head. He has also been asking mom for a new baby brother, although mom and dad do not feel the same right now.

Happy Sweet 16, well at least 7 yrs closer

We embark on the voyage of our oldest turning one year closer to the beloved teen stage. She believes she should have 16 candels on the cake, but we negotiated 9. This cap'n Rob Dog has never sailed his ship through teen girl infested waters...Might as well walk the plank, eh mates? Looks like the ol' man has rubbed off on her as she shows a great interest in her PS2 eye toy, even brings a tear the toughest pirate's eye... good thing me patch can hide it. What makes a pirate ever so proud is that his only son is already developing a fine nitch for the more masculine things in life, polly pockets. This has me wantin to walk the plank too.

Cap'n "Blackbeard" the bunny was squatin' and laying down easter treats for all of the lil' swabby's here in Dumpinica. These lil' swashbucklers found all sorts of buried treasures here in the enchanted forrest. Caden found himself an "organic" egg only to find it wasn't hard-boiled, but don't worry mates, it was so hot he enjoyed a nice fried egg that cooked in his wee lil afro. Sadie helped litte Kamdyn move the fatty cheeks from her eyes, so she could find some nibbles for the ol' sweet tooth.

Call me Ishmael

Catch of the Day in these waters is whale tonight, mates. A voyage on the White Pearl took us out to where the giants of the sea were mingling. I sent in me pics to National Geographic and they said me hand was too steady for their liking. We sent in Caden to spear us some dinner, but there is not much of a market for whale blubber anymore me hearties.

Sadie's enitre school

No room to hide when you forget your homework, eh mates? 

Although she won't admitt it, Sadie really loves this sea creature Caden Kong...sleep tight mates.

More fun at the schools Halloween/Carnival/independence day party. 

Happy 4th of...wait Happy Independence day Dominica

Aye, I believe the country's bird is really Talkatoo from Zoobilee Zoo.

Happy Dominica Independence!!!

The 78th anniversary from their indpendence from Great Brittain has been celbrated over the past two weeks. Since then, they have lost their income from exports of bananas, have not managed to develop a tourism market, and have managed to put more craters in the road than the surface of the moon. It was a hard fought revolution, but the explosion of large coconuts and the lack of decent roads forthe Britts to drive on, helped them win that war. Makes you proud. 

Here we find our lil' pirates in training adjusted to the "pirates life". Caden here is learnin to use the big boy potty-Is that chocolate on his face, or is that potty training gone wrong. You do the taste test you scurvey dogs and report back to Cap'n Rob Dawg, aye.

Here is Caden's shipmate camden, yes that's right swabby's, the same name as the wee sailor girl Kamdyn. He has been here for a semester, and already cap'n himself.

Caden stole Megan Moran's glasses....that is all I have to say, arrrrg.

And lastly Sadie has dressed up as Cheetara from Thundercats for Halloween....or is it easter b/c she won the golden egg. No one know s out here, it is summer year round. 

Ahoy again me land lover's. A Sailor's Promise that we won't be so slow about postin' from here on out, aye. Caden here is trainin' for the steel drum, taught by our landladies grandson, a true local.

Looks like the wee sailor is a takin' to her uncle Nick. Suckin' the two fingers....ring a bell grandma milford? A true female version of baby Nick....Excuse me, me hearties, a true scurvy dog am I. Nick was a female version as well....aye you feminine hips. 

Here are some other pics of our trip with me heartie and the other swabbies. The gentleman in the back, Antwan, was our forest guide and was very knowledgable about all the mysteries of the forest. The shot of the river below was from the cable bridge we were walking across. A 300ft drop from the bridge...no short drop by any means. And for all you swabby lovers out there, Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3 were filmed in that gorge below.
