me on dad/mom's balcony heading to the cayman islands
the other 1/2 of me
in front of the boat
the only place i felt was safe enough for nate to swim. all water sports were cancelled this day due to the high winds but i was ok with n going in this water
then it was c's turn. this was the high light of his trip. he said the snorkeling was the best
we went sight seeing (aka shopping)
awwww
awwww x's 2
can't keep them out of the water

yep, playing with a machete (sp???)

mmmmmmmmm fresh coconut juice

another mini high light, i swear it's the little things that matter! charlie came to visit before bed. she is such a hoot. i love this girl. she was up in nate's bunk...she took his mickey haha!

last day at sea :(

i took the boys on a hunt before kids camp to give everyone a break...we had such a great time! seriously!

hanging

awwww

then it was time to drop them off at camp and i did a little more reading

book 3. it was a good read

on the last day the kids camp did a talent show. what a hoot!

waiting for the show to start

not before freddy fun first! ohhhhhhhhh it's freddy!

then it was time for their show

intro'ing nate and quinn preforming the "tootie taught"

oh.my.word. SO cute!

loving the stage

final good bye with freddy

so dad/mom gave the boys 20 bucks to spend. on the final day i bought a freddy stuffed doll for nate (q too) and nate loves it. he sleeps with it every night. he now sleeps in this order 2 blankets (from ursi) 1 mickey, 1 puppy and now freddy

the original plan was to take the boys to downtown disney for halloween. at the last minute c and i talked about it and we decided to not take nate. we both felt that we did not want to introduce him to some of the more adult costumes that would prob be there at his age. we wanted to try to keep him as innocent as possible. so we skipped it and they didn't wear the outfits so for fun, i had them put them on on the boat. they had a blast

thing 1 and thing 2 in costume. also pretending to be disney characters....haha

coming home. boo

a view of tampa

all packed up and ready to go

early the next morning, in the airport preflight (this would be 5 am) in tampa

we flew to new hamp and then drove to bangor...

and after checking in cry and i went to the christmas tree shop, we brought quinn with us and told him he could buy ANYTHING in the store. what did he buy?

bawahhhhhhhhhh

for real... this is quinn's purchase. i named him ginger

we spent the night in bangor and after a quick stop in target we drove home

and the vacay was over

boo

it was a hoot thou and i can't wait for my next cruise!!!!!!!
