Key West, FL

Us!

It's not very often we get these pics.

Sleep, Sleep and more Sleep

Sleeping in was FANTASTIC!

Carriage Ride in Cozumel

We went to a local restaurant in Cozumel to get an appetizer, but the night life was so crazy with Spring Breakers that we left before the waiter could bring back our water. A man named Pedro was waiting outside and wanted money for a ride. We talked him down to $10. It was a nice little ride...I have to say that the man wasn't too happy when Jeremy asked if he had change for a $50. Jeremy had to go to the restaurant again to make change. It was one of those moments :)

I was proud to get my ride :)

Excursion: Parasailing in Key West

Jeremy and I both agree that parasailing was well worth it (with the exception of Jeremy almost vomiting due to motion sickness...it was windy). We had a blast and were really lucky to have a small crowd on our boat (only one other couple and our crazy surfer dudes). Other boats had upto 12 passengers. This has always been one of the top things on my "to-do before I die" list. Glad to say I can make a check. Thanks Hunny!

The Ship....Huge; need I say more? Okay:

This is from the street in Cozumel. The horse (you can barely see) pulled us in a carriage that night. We took pictures from it, but never of it.


Of our cruise ship from the parasailing boat (in Key West, FL. There were several docked.


First night. Great food! The all time favorite dessert: The Chocolate Metlting Cake. I had it 3 of the 4 nights. Yummy!


Crowded, always!


There's a huge slide on the 12th level. You can see it in the far distance.

Excursion: Sail, Snorkel & Beach Party

We rode this out to the opposite side of Cozumel. It was a 4 hour excursion that took us to see beautiful mexican waters. It was quite the sight! Even the water in the Bahamas wasn't this blue!


We were happy we knew what to expect this time (I was quite fearful last time). We enjoyed every moment of the the snorkeling. Jeremy took quite a few dives to see what he could touch. We saw several fish and some coral...no sting ray this time.


It was quite relaxing spending time together.


Jeremy got to spend maybe 5 minutes in this hammock...then it was time to go :(


We were also able to enjoy the toys in the water. A couple climbing walls with a slide on the opposite side AND trampolines. It was pretty fun!

The Sunsets

We really enjoyed watching the skies each night. These were taken on our last night at Sea.

The Towels

Each morning and night our room gets a cleaning. One of the jokes on the ship is about "the people" who take pictures of their towels in their rooms. They can laugh all they want! On our cruise in 2004, we thought we had an extra nice maid that was quite talented. It wasn't until our last day that we realized each cabin gets the cute towels LOL!

Let the games begin!

Our little t-ball player had her first practice this evening. She had a blast being with her friends and learning how to throw and hit the ball.

This was her second hit...she did a fantastic job! Keep up the good work Ally!

Happy 50th Uncle Randy!

Kaitlyn's Name

We've been working with Kaitlyn on her letters. She gets caught up on those K's and Y's. I can tell she's been practicing at pre-school also. I told her to sign her name last Tuesday (on her cousin Ksenya's birthday card). This time, she didn't even ask for help...she drove right in and did a marvelous job! Way to go Kaitlyn!

The Hair

We were at church last Sunday and a little girl came into the chapel, sitting in the pew next to us. The little girl was adorable and Jeremy made comments about how cute she was and was especially amazed by her hair. He mentioned how I HAD to do that to the girls' hair. He enjoyed seeing Ally's hair done the next day.

Daddy's Little Helper

Little Bro and his Baby Mya

Yummy for my Tummy!

Kaitlyn loves her fruit...as you can see from her smoothie mustache LOL

Daddy and his little girls

The girls and I were thrilled when daddy brought home flowers for Valentines Day. A single red rose for each girl and a dozen for mommy. We are the luckiest girls in the world to have a daddy and hubby so sweet :0)

Sisterly Love

One of the worst tasks of the day is getting Kaitlyn to drink her milk each night (She would sit there for hours if we would let her). Ally was a great help last night (she knew mom and dad were cranky and she did everything she could to cheer us up). She put Kaitlyn on her lap and helped Kaitlyn gulp the milk down. I caught them exchanging kisses on the cheek. I'm glad they have each other...they really are loving sisters. Don't ya just love the pizza left on Kaitlyn's cheek :)
