This Time Last Week... Top 10

Alright... today is the last day to wax nostalgic about last week's unbelievable vacation. So to sum up all of the greatness I present to you:

my TOP 10 FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THE CRUISE

(in no particular order!)

#10 - CELEBRATING DADO

Of course... the whole reason for the trip was for Dado's 60th birthday! I don't think there could be any better way to celebrate than taking your whole family on a cruise! So thank you Dado, for turning 60 and including all of us!

#9 - THE RIDE

Just to top it all off, Dado decided to take us to the port in style! What a cool surprise...

#8 - THE ROCK WALL

Once on the boat, there was so much to do! But my favorite thing was climbing the wall...

#7 - PUTT PUTT

This makes the list because Hamp & Sam played every day... sometimes twice! They thought it was so amazing that there was mini-golf available on the ship, anytime they wanted!

#6 - WATERMELON

I think the boys ate their weight in watermelon last week... in Colorado we only get good watermelon in July/August and the boys talk about it all winter long. So they were thrilled to have it at every meal!

#5 - DINNER

My favorite time of day was when we all met for dinner - the food was abundant and delicious, the conversations were always fun and interesting, and above all the service was remarkable. June was great with the kids, and Ronald had lots of stories and tricks to keep up entertained!

#4 - MARVIN'S CREATIONS

The ship had great service all around... but the boys particularly enjoyed seeing our room attendant everyday and eagerly awaited the creative "towel animals" found in our room each night!

#3 - THE BALCONY

Ahhhh... it was at times relaxing, fun, exciting and even a little scary (especially at night!) but always nice to sit with family and watch the Caribbean waters go by!
#2 - THE WEATHER

Normally, this would not have been my favorite part of the trip. However, since this is what our front yard looked like yesterday: ... then this is the sight and the feel that I am missing the most!!!

#1 - THE NEWS

The trip was truly amazing - so many wonderful memories that will last a lifetime.

But there is one part of the trip that will last for generations...

CONGRATULATIONS ALEC & JEI!!!

TWO new family members due out this fall!!!
