Pictures (part 2)

Cody had two cakes-one that he could "dig into" and the other one so everyone else could have some cake too. Didn't Chris do a great job on the Cookie Monster cake? At first he wasn't quite sure what was going on... Then he figured he better get ahold of it before mommy "noticed" what he was doing. After one taste, he was hooked! We couldn't tell what he liked more, eating the cake, or playing with it. Cody had a blast and got lots of fun toys from all of his family and friends. Thanks everyone!

Alas, the pictures (part 1)

So it's been WAY longer than I anticipated as far as getting pictures from our cruise on here, but hey ast least I can just post picture after picture without having too much interuption/explanation. These first few pictures are of the ship leaving the port of Fort Lauderdale, Fl. The boys liked playing on Clay's bed that came down from the ceiling. Alex, King Julian, and Shrek from the character breakfasts. Dad, Chris, and Evan really enjoyed the Flo Rider. They also had a blast in the dodgeball tournaments. And we all had a great time conquering the Rock Wall. Even Jannelle did it, which is way out of her realm! Go Nell!! Our room attendant left us little animals made out of towels. Cody LOVED the free icecream. Evan and Ayden playing in the arcade. Every night we always got to sit down as a family-together-and have dinner. The kids and their "classes" put on a "pirates" themed show. It was so cute. Leaving the port of Belize on the ferry(?). Notice I don't have any pictures of Belize...I was just glad to be going back to the cruise ship. Random sunset The cruise ship is in sight, whew! Relieved to be going back to the ship. Cozumel-sorry these ones are a little out of order... The six of us kids that went snorkeling while Nanny and Poppy watched the grandkids. Wish I had had a water proof camera to take pictures...it was awesome. Last night on the cruise-family picture time.(Like my dad's hemp tattoo of a bulldog? He loved it, and had to show it off every time he got the chance.) CHEESE!
