I never mentioned much about our cruise but that was b/c it was a surprise for our friend Todd. His wife, Cari planned this trip over 6 months ago but wasn't going to tell him until his birthday January 1st! So I didn't want to be the one to accidently share info that wasn't supposed to be shared! She planned a 7 day cruise to the western caribbean so we thought we would take advantage of this opportunity and go with them. There were a total of 7 of us that made this trip and it was fun! So nice to get away from the crappy, winter weather!
My family was awesome in helping to take care of Presley while we were gone. I knew she was in good hands but it was still hard to leave her for a whole week!
We flew out of Kansas City last Saturday and stayed overnight in Miami. We took it easy in Miami b/c we were all so tired from a long day of traveling! But Sunday morning we got up and got ready to board our cruise ship!
Monday we had a day at sea and the boat was packed and busy with people! We did manage to find the adult only pool area! :) This was the main area of the boat with pools, hot tubs, the slide and the big screen TV (where we watched the Packer game the night before!).
Here are the 5 of us girls all dressed up for our fancy dinner. Me, Molly, Cari, Amanda and Jill.
Tuesday we made it to Cozumel. It was beautiful! A touristy area, with lots of shopping and beaches!
After shopping and drinking we were able to find a beach. It was awesome and cheap and we got drunk! It was so fun! and then for some reason a couple people thought it would be fun to snorkel, including Steve who doesn't know how to swim real well and decided to wear a life jacket that was not inflated! :)
Us girls again...Jill, Molly, Amanda, Cari and me...all sucking in our stomachs? ha!
The day ended with a trip down the waterslide (which I swallowed way too much water and showed a little too much boob at the bottom of) and then had about 50 people sing happy birthday to me at dinner.....for those of you who know me, know that it is not my birthday! It was a complete mistake but it was too late to try to fix it! They were all singing, clapping, hoot and hollering and then wanted me to give a speech (I didn't know most of these people and I'm guessing they had been drinking all day like we had), needless to say I did not give a speech and was slightly embarrased! But it was so funny and a great 'birthday'!
