For our Christmas vacation this year, we originally weren’t going to go anywhere. We bought a car earlier this year and that really took a huge bite out of our finances. As we got closer and closer to December however i started wanting to get away from New York to see my family in Jamaica.

Last year, we flew Air Jamaica. What a stinking pile of shit that airline was!! This year, Jet Blue was our airline of choice and what a huge difference!! They were organized and on time. The only complaint was that the TVs didn’t work that well in our aisle. I was hoping to occupy some of Siennas time with a little cartoon network action but oh well, the story books and stickers seemed to do the trick. She also took a small nap.

We had an early flight from JFK landing in Kingston Jamaica about noon. Below, Lisa and Sienna are having some juice before the flight.

We tried to get her to walk around a bit hoping that she’d sleep on the flight. Here, she sees our plane and asks over and over if it was ours..

yes Sienna, that's our plane

Jet Blue

When we finally landed and cleared customs (faster than i ever thought possible), we were met by Grandpa, Grandma, Baba, Auntie Carol-Anne and Gabby.

This is my favorite picture of the trip. Sienna looks older but is actually the younger of the two..
