Our Awesome Cruise


Thats Todd.... He was a master scuba diver. I was really impressed with his skills.
Me....sideways...secretly having the BIGGEST earache EVER!








Todd snorkeling by himself

South Beach Miami

The delicious frozen yogurt we all had way too much of.

I don't even know where to begin in trying to explain our fantastic trip!!! We went on a cruise with Todd's 2 sisters and their husbands to Key West, Florida, and Cozumel, Mexico, ending and beginning in Fort Lauderdale. The trip was seriously so amazing. Best times on the ship include: great pizza at 10:30pm every night, great nightly entertainment including dancers/singers, comedian, gymnast, game shows, karioke, dancing, talking, and eating ice cream, laying out with the wind keeping you cool, EATING, and sleeping so good because there was no window in our room. Faves off the ship.... Scuba diving for the VERY FIRST TIME!!!! I was nervous for about an hour prior to diving, I think I had a serious fear of doing it, but I am so glad I did it because it was AMAZING.... traveling around Key West, watching Todd snorkel by himself for an hour straight, and lay out on the beach. The definite highlight of the trip HAS to be hands down mine and Todd's karioke performance. It was a spur of the moment call on my part and I put down Todd's name with mine, fully knowing that he would totally do it with me. We performed Love Shack...its a perfect song, man and woman parts, upbeat and fun, and I happened to have that one memorized. So I don't want to brag or anything, but it was a major hit. We are talking people standing up and clapping and yelling for us, and if you could just imagine, me, kind of spazzing out dancing and running with the crowd. It was such a hit that people for the rest of the cruise would come up to us and tell us how much they loved our karioke. Todd was such a trooper. To top it all of when our ship got back in we spent the day in Miami in South Beach. It was definately an adventure....lots of different people, lots of condos, and LOTS of amazing expensive cars. The trip was so amazing and I was so lucky to be able to go!!!

Glad you had fun! The weather looks a little grim in some pictures but you still managed to get tan!

Scuba Diving is amazing but at the same time a little scary! Way to be brave!

Oh my goodness, I loved the video! If I think I could stand being away from my kidlets for that long, I think a grown-ups only cruise would be WONDERFULL! Super jealous.
