Cruise Magic

                                                                   
                                                                      Merry Christmas!!

 For Christmas this last year we did not do any gifts...yup, the Christmas tree was pretty sad looking. We had decided last year we would rather do a family trip and have memories instead of things for the year of 2011. So we booked a cruise!
Having Z with us made it a very family friendly cruise. She had a blast to say the least, and she was worth that full ticket we had to pay for her. (Yes, no matter the age they are full price!) Each night we took turns going to bed early, so that Cory and I could enjoy dinner and the shows with everyone. It worked out really well, since there was usually at least one person who was tired anyway.
So...the first day as we are in the hot tub with our waterproof camera...it breaks. So we have no camera for the rest of the cruise. So the pictures we have are from Cory's mom, who thankfully took a good amount of our family. And every night on the cruise they take pictures as you go into the dining hall, and Cory took full advantage of this feature. Seriously we went through a STACK of pictures we had taken and then we selected the best ones... here they are.

Ironically, all the good ones were taken on the same night. So sadly we have all the same outfits on. Oh well, no one will care in 10 years. Here is the picture of us when we got off the ship in Jamaica.

And this one, is of us on the Beach in Cozmel, Mexico. This guy had a parakeet and was taking pictures of people and then charging like 20$ for the picture...needless to say we got it for $5. Gotta love Mexico :) And what a disaster of a picture...haha Zaylie did not like that bird.
