My favorite part was you talking about going ziplining :) It reminded me of when I used to go at YoungLife camps and how scared I was before jumping off the podium. Except you got to do it in Jamaica, which I’m pretty sure would take ANYBODYS fear away :)
Hey no fair! I was going to write about the ziplining! I’m a total sissy and scared of heights and everything requiring bravery, but that actually looks really fun!
my fave part was the trampoline day and teh reggae drops water bottle lol. of all the prizes i’ most excited about the pencil, that thing is SO COOL!
I think I’ll have to say the bum indented seats – I have NEVER seen anything like that!
the snorkeling looked like fun! :) ive always wanted to do that in pretty clear blue water. and everything u ate looks super good too
I would say the Catamaran! I have always wanted to go on one of those! Looks like you had so much fun!!! :)
sounds lame maybe, but reading about all the ACTIVE stuff you guys got to do! most vacations in my mind = just lazing on the beach, but you guys packed so much adventure into your trip there! I’m beyond jealous!!
Okay, if I have to pick a favorite besides the engagement (which was totally my favorite by the way because, ugh, it’s just really exciting!!!!!), I would pick your zip lining adventure. Also, I really liked the rolls too! So there’s two!
Okay my favorite part was you being pissed about the deodorant ;D but I guess that part of the engagement.
So I have to say the ziplining.
My favorite would be the snorkeling trip. It’s fun to see sea life outside of the aquarium!
My favorite part was when you posted about the excursions….part #3 I suppose. It was nice seeing all the things that you guys did and also some of the people that were on vacation with you. You guys did have fun and welcome back again!
ummm YES. I love Jamaican coffee. When we went, we bought like a bunch of it, because it is so expensive to ship! Sooo good/fun waking up to Jamaican coffee+ free refills every morning.
My favorite recap -well since I think I only saw the first two, I’d have to say the one where you went to the chain restaurant and didn’t even post the picture.
No wait, I really liked the snorkeling one too. Did I mention how hot you look in snorkeling wear? Oh and your massive consumption of cereal. Yayyy for vacation.
Snorkeling! I miss tropical blue waters so much but I know I lived up every second I was in Hawaii, so it’s all good! Mmm I wonder what Jamaica. Spice tastes like.
Reading about the coconut ice-cream with chocolate sauce, yum!
enter me mama!
i loved your ziplining post! #4
I went in costa rica and it’s a great, super fond memory for me :)
xoxo
I love the fresh coco that you guys got. When I was in Guatemala, I could not get enough of the stuff.
Everything about your vacay reminds me of mine! The big buffets, the cute “events” the hotel throws together, the outdoor BBQ…I wish I could go on vacation right now.
Wow cool I’ve been told Jamaica coffee is delish! I think my favorite part of your vacation other than the ring! would have to be when you went on the zip lines! They look so much fun, I have always wanted to go on an adventure in the trees like that and you made me want to go even more it looked amazing! x x
I loved the hiking part the most ( part 4 ) :)
definitely the zip line experience… really adventurous! :)
OMG!!!!!!!!!! That is THE best coffee. Seriously, I can’t wait for morning to come on the cruise ship to drink that stuff…ahhh…41 days ;)
I loved the dog you found. Okay, that’s cop out too because you know i’m a dog lover. I loved the zipline also.
My fav part of your trip woulld be the bob Marley :)
I liked that you went ziplining. I’ve always wanted to try it!
Blue Mountain coffee is by far the best!
I enjoyed reading how you balanced your food at the resort. It can be difficult with all the choices they offer and from experience, I wanted to try everything.
wooo hooo fun giveaway! Love that pencil hehe. My fave part of your recaps would have to be the ziplining. I would be to chicken to do it so I’m just living vicariously through you :P
I loved reading about the zip lining! I got to do that when I was in Costa Rica!
I just loved all the beach/water pictures. So I guess the snorkeling! I love swimming! I’ve never left Canada…. so I’m a bit jealous ;)
My two favorite parts are the ziplining adventure and the oatmeal bar! What I wouldn’t give for a tropical vacation right about now :)
Hope you’re having a good weekend–can’t wait to hear wedding deets!
I loved your excursions recap–and specifically the booze cruise, er, I mean snorkeling!! ;)
ahh what a great giveaway! I love when you took us on the tour with you to Bob marleys house and saw his acutal bed and everything! so cool!!
This is going to sound retarded but I loved the “casual” deodorant remark. HA! It sounds just like something I would say to my Mr.
The drunk coworkers dance-athon on the booze cruise is also a classic!
XO
I loved reading about all your delicious food.. especially that ice cream!
Zip-lining! And I know many others have said it already, but it was my fave. I’ve always wanted to go! I’d love to try some Jamaican coffee and tea!
my favorite part was your Bob Marley tour – it looked like so much fun! i’m a big Bob Marley and reggae fan, and i would love, love, LOVE to go see where he lived and wrote all of his music!!!
i hope i win! i want that pencil ;)
Jamaican coffee—yum!
My fave part? Two words:
Zip Line!!!
Or is it one word together?? LOL No clue but that’s my fave :)
Zip lining! Actually all the pictures, the resort, the water, the tour guide cutting the coconut etc. Vicarious thrills! You really did a great job recapping! And yes….I really want the spice and pencil!
Congrats again! You look radiant and so gorgeous in your pictures! I am so happy for you!

I like the boat ride. Looks so peaceful to lay over the water on that net! I also like that you showed the “local” kitty! When I was in Hawaii, I saw local kitties everywhere! Seeing how I am a huge cat fan, I took all kinds of pictures of them. Super trip :)
Toss up between the catamaran & the coconut ice cream ;D
awww SUCH CUTE jamaican goodies!! LOVE the little pin (i see the gorgeous bLiNg on your finger!) :) I hope you are having a great b-day filled weekend!! xoxo!
bob marley tour and the bum-indented seats :)
coolest giveaway ever! i loved seeing the beautiful beach pictures.
Nice goods! My favorite has to be the pictures from Bob Marley’s house, how sick!
okay, everyone is saying ziplining, which is awesome! But I love the Bob Marley house and the fact that you found coconut ice cream almost daily! total highlight, haha!
ugh so not fair because the engagement IS my favorite part and you know it BUT besiiiides that i love your cadamarand or however you spell it trip mainly because it looked insanely fun and its a dream of mine to do it up caddy style :)
Well I’m sure I won’t win, because I am such a loser haha!! I LOVED the snorkeling adventure – I LOVE THE OCEAN and its creatures!! xoxo
my OTHER favorite part was your zipline adventures! ive done that once before although in a woods on the east coast so i’d imagine your experience was much cooler. i definitely want to do that again!!!
I loved seeing you visit Bob Marley’s crib.
Also, Blue Mountain coffee is supposed to be the best in the world!
What a good giveaway… I actually loved reading about how much fun you and your boyfriend… ERRRR fiance had together ;) The ziplining looked like so much fun! What amazing experiences you both got to have! Enjoy it now girl… :)
As a huge Marley fan, I would have to say being in the room where that amazing man slept! sooo cool!
Thanks to one of your followers posting on my blog, I came across yours, and love it! You and Marshall are super cute and I love the “not enough” comment and the way he proposed- very sweet! I am going through the wedding planning now as well and look forward to hearing more about your planning.
Love all the pics from your trip- that spiders so scary, but kinda rad too!
Congrats again!

by far i am with the majority here…..the ZIPLINE! we have always wanted to do that, but so far have not…..loved reading about the whole trip though….looks like you had tons of fun! thanks for offering the great giveaway! whoop whoop for jamaican coffee!!! xoxo terri
I loved seeing you visit Bob Marley’s crib, cool giveaway!
What a fun giveaway! My favorite part was easily your ziplining trip because I took my own hubby on a ziplining excursion in St. Lucia for his birthday. It’s such an exhilarating feeling.
Visiting Bob Marley’s home! Super fun!
Zip-lining because it is something I have always wanted to do even though I am so afraid of heights.
there are 2:
1) although you didn’t have pics of it.. my pick is the kayaking in the ocean… My bf and I have already talked about renting them next time we are at the beach and I’m sure it was gorgeous!!
2) snorkeling b/c I’m sure its just gorgeous and you look so cute in the goggles! : )
i like your buffet plates. mostly, because i just love buffets.
Ziplining, looks so much fun! And tied is the FOOD, obviously =D
xo
K
i loved seeing all the different types of food you ate! after all, this is a food blog :)
Janetha, of course my fave part was the proposal!! I am so happy for you I could pee my pants….but I won’t…no really, I promise
Hey, Great blog!! How exciting – great trip! I love the pictures…and your super-cute haircut – model worthy bangs there girl :)
I loved your trip to Marley’s house. I would love to go there!
Great giveaway darling!!
I loved your recap of the catamaran trip… we did one of those and it was one of my favorite parts of our trip there!
My favorite part was the man selling joints out of the little window… :-O !!!
the zipline looked like so much fun! ive always wanted to do it
I loved reading about and seeing all the pics of your eats while on your trip…. delish :)
Oooh Pick me! I liked seeing all your yummy eats and the ziplining. I’ve done that before and its so much fun! Congrats on the engagement as well!
The tour of Bob Marley’s house was really neat, especially seeing the bed and that crazy chair with the foot footrest :)
Of course it wasn’t nearly as awesome as reading about your engagment!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Ziplining! I NEED to do that soon – so fun!
Well, if I can’t pick the engagement as my fav part I’m going with the fact that you totally jacked up Marshall’s plan to propose on the beach. Girl, when a man asks you to go for a spur of the moment walk on the beach – DO IT! :) Kidding, I’m just giving you crap. It makes the story better anyway…
I’d also like to try that coconut ice cream you were raving about.
Blue Mountain coffeeeee!!! Lovelovelovelove :D That needs to get in my french press asap. Fave part of your recap (besides engagement, obvi) was the Bob Marley trip. Mostly because I didn’t do that when I was there and am a huge fan, so it was nice to live vicariously though you! The butt bench also sticks out in my mind, but that’s more… unsettling…
hmm…well, I loved when you did a recap of your ziplining experience! might have been a teensy bit jealous, lol :)
Besides the engagement?!?!
Riding the zip line looked like SO much fun! And just the fact that you guys left your resort. Jared and I didn’t do anything in Cancun so I’m jealous of your Jamaican adventures!
My fave part of your Jamaican trip was the zipline adventure! Thanks for taking so many pics and sharing them w/ those of us who didn’t get to go!
My fave part is the zipline for sure. I’d LOVE to try that one day!
i really want to say that the coconut ice cream is my favorite part :P, but in reality, ziplining in the jungle is so awesome! i’m so jealous!
the zipline! I wanted to do one when my husband and I went to hawaii, but I didn’t, and I’m still dying to try it!
This seems to be the trend, but your zipline adventure definitely looks like the best part of the trip (aside from your engagement of course!) PS Jamaican blue mountain is my all time FAVORITE coffee EVER (and I work for Starbucks, thats saying something!) Also, love the blog! I’ve never commented before, but I read it every week! Very inspirational!
Thanks so much for the opportunity! My favorite part was reading about your ziplining experience in the part 4 recap! I have always wanted to do that someday and it got me even more excited too!
The coconut ice cream! I know it wasn;t really a story but more just about the food, but I love coconut to the core!! Yum, and congrats!
My favourite part was when you visited Bob Marley’s house :)
I love the snorkeling pics!!! You are so cute! :)
I liked when you went to Bob Marley’s house, it seemed so fun. I just can’t believe they were selling “the ganga” right there!
I loved everything, even though I didn’t get to comment much. Bob Marley’s house? Ziplining? Everything sounded SO fun!!!
And Jamaica Blue Mountain is coffee I’ve been LOOKING for forever!!!
The ice cream cart by the pool. How fun!
And I love Blue Mountain coffee… so good!
Okay this is going to sound so dumb, but my favorite part was something SO simple… When Marshall got so excited that they had your fave coconut ice cream and brought you some. TOOO stinking cute.
Enter moi por favor. I’ll take the prize WITH the ganja thanks.
