The cruise

I NEVER want to forget the memories I made with my parents and my older brother Thomas and his family. 

Back in Feb of 2015, my parents were planning on going to serve a 2 week mission that they had done while I was on my mission. Due to some changes the church was making they canceled my parents time in New York. Because of this my parents had plane tickets that they needed to use. They were going to go to Alaska (which they had already been to) so instead my brother talked them into going on a cruise with them. I just happen to be there when this was being discussed so my parents said they would pay for me to go as well :) talk about being in the right place at the right time. 

10 months of waiting seemed like along time but it really didn't. It was here before we knew it.

We started in Miami and cruised to Jamaica, Cozumel mexico, Cayman Islands, and Nassau Bahamas

 We went to Atlantis which I was excited to say I've been there. But all it is a big casino, and lots of very expensive shops in it. They have big water park but there was no way I was going to spend that kind of money to go down some slides. We opted to just go to the beach and play in the water.

                                                                                       

 Thomas, Britney and I went Snorkeling, It was AMAZING. The water was crystal clear, saw so many different types of fish. There was a  guy taking pictures of us with the fish but it was to expensive to buy the desk of pictures. s

                                                                                     

                                                                                         

We did A LOT of shopping, which I loved cause things are CHEAP. Wain and I collect key chains everyone where we go to remember the places we have been. 

                                                       

Suja was our waiter for the entire week we were on the ship. Him and my nephew Tyse were the best of friends. 

It was an amazing 12 days, the only thing missing was Wain. He was unable to go due to work. Next time I will NOT go that long without him (ok maybe it depends on where, whom and what I am doing) It was hard being gone that long without him. But I will always cherish the memories I made with my parents, my brother, SIL, and niece and nephew.
