We're Cruisin....

On the beach at St. Maarten it was really our only sunny day!!! We made the most of it though! View from the ship of St. Maarten on the Dutch side

The "Promenade" on the ship where all of the shopping is. It is also where they held nightly parades in the street. It was really cool! They would even have dancers descend down from the ceilings on like trapeze bars. It was very entertaining!

Our dining room- here is my sis Kim and one of her girls Tenielle. The chandelier was gorgeous!!!





More Cruisin Pics....

All of the grandkids on formal night (except for Treg- he had to hang with his buddies in the Teen Club every night)
Treg with Tony our waiter from India-
Family Disco Night! We took Drew in his p.j.s and he was quite a hit cutting the rug!!!

Our ship docked in the waters in Haiti. Notice the gray skies and rain. They had to cancel all of the shore excursions on land due to the weather. Bummer!



Tatum and her braids holding my $10 souvenir item. My sis bought the same set for $3 from the same guy. I felt so sorry for them because they are soooooo poor. I don't feel bad for getting ripped off! $10 goes a long way for them!

Cruisin Pics!

Wade and Drew chillin at the dinner table. It was a chore to get through all of the courses at dinner with the kids. Our waiter Tony would bring boxes of Fruit Loops and fruit bowls for the kids appetizers and plates of chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Luckily there was a kids menu..... thank heavens for chicken nuggets and spaghetti!! If you look at my Uncle in the background- you can see that he braided his beard for fun in Haiti. What more can I say? Wade being Wade......

One of the formal nights on the ship. Here are my two sisters with my mom and I. We actually came on the cruise to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday. Doesn't she look great for 60? I have to brag that she still waterskis (on one ski mind you) and leaves everyone behind on the ski slope. She is a downhill skier but has also tried snowboarding. What a crack up! I would have liked to have seen that.

This is Drew's new smile for when we say "Cheese"- he's perfected it really well, don't you think?


On the beach in St. Maarten- it was nice because it was so shallow that the kids could walk out quite far. We went to a private inland island which unfortunately didn't have very good snorkeling but it did have topless sunbathers! Whoa!!

You're Such a BAST>>>>!!

Dear Molly-
I so wanted Melissa to grab you by your mangy, scraggly ponytail and throw you down to Chinatown. I don't buy it that you never had any contact with Jason whatsoever. I especially liked the special fairytale book that you gave him that looked like a 7th grader made it complete with roses drawn in markers. AMAZING I TELL YOU, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! As soon as Mel was off the stage you didn't waste anytime swapping spit and sucking face with this AMAZING guy. I was ready for you to wheel in the oily massage table and get busy in the tent. Don't Mess with Texas Molly! I am gonna kick my Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader boot up your backside! :) Melissa... thank goodness you missed that train wreck of a Bachleor! You were too good for that AMAZING guy anyways! By the way, Melissa was offered to do the next "Bachelorette" and she refused! Good for you!!!

Jason- I don't think you are a bad guy.... but you definitely have a few issues. First, you CRY a lot. How many times did we have to see you breaking down on the balcony??? Second, you've proposed to 2 women in less than year! You had just gotten divorced when you went on the Bachelorette, then DeAnna dumped you, next you proposed to Melissa, then you dumped Melissa and are now with Molly. You just can't get enough of her green contacts... oops I mean eyes. :) We'll see in 6 months if you change your mind again. After all, Molly is pretty AMAZING but so is Deanna. You just never know......
