A Little R&R!!!!

Last Christmas, my mom gave the entire family a cruise to the Carribbean. We just got home after spending a week relaxing in the nice HOT sun!!! Brandon,Mitch, Ali and I drove to Columbus on Nov. 10th and flew to Ft. lauderdale where we met up with the rest of the family. We stayed one night in Florida and then next morning headed for the Cribbean Princess Cruise Ship.

We spent a week hanging out at the pool,eating,watching movies on the big screen at the pool,eating,dancing,going to shows,taking naps,reading,eating,and just having a great time. We spent one day on the beach in St. Martin,one day on the beach in St. Thomas (if you've never been there it is awesome you need to go), and a day on the beach at the Cruise line's private island Princess Cays. We did a lot of laying in the sun,swimming,snorkeling and all the other fun things you do at the beach. All of the islands reminded B and I of Mexico in the why the people lived and of course the bargins.
Sunday morning we got up early and had to be out of our room by 8:45am so we stayed one more night in Ft. Lauderdale where we just relaxed in the room and met up with Kristen,Jason and Lili for dinner.
On Monday after a long flight and a 2 hour drive back to Avon Lake from Columbus we finally made it home just in time for bed.
Kids are off to school this morning for one day this week and they have they have the rest of the week off.

Mom, thanks for the trip. We had a lot of fun and really appreciate all that you put in to making it a good time for everyone!!!!We love you!!!

It sounds and looks like you guys had an amazing time. It must have been so nice to be with your entire family. We went on a cruise a couple of years ago and loved St. Thomas and St. Martin.
