We went on a 7 day cruise with my family last week! It was AMAZING!! The cruise went to the Western Caribbean (Cayman Isalands, Roatan, Belize, Cozumel) and they were all incredibly gorgeous!! This is the first of many posts to come, and they may take a whiile because I am getting pictures from my parents too. But this is of August 15, the day we flew into Miami. This is Jared's third time flying his whole life!! (One when he was little to some family memmbers funeral, one to his mission and one back) And its like my fifty billionth time! But it was fun!
This is how I pack my clothes. I don't know why, but I seriously can not pack without laying out everything first! I blame my mother who made me do it as a kid so she could se I have everything! Jared was making fun of me for it, but hey, I didn't forget anything! =>
One of the wives here was nice enough to give us a ride to the airport! Here we are, about to embark on an epic adventure!! And believe it or not, I am such a good packer that we did not check any bags, we only brought two carry on bags and my purse! I think that is impressive! =>
In the Denver International Airport (DIA) you check in and then have to ride an automated train to your terminal! There were not many people flying that day so we got to sit on the only seat in the train cabin! Sweet!
This is us, almost eight miles in the air!! On our first married flight!! (and Jared's third!! I still can't believe that!)
We met up with my family in Minniapolis, where we then took a flight together to Miami! It was so much fun getting to fly with them, but the boys were a little crazy after being stuck in an airport for a layover of 3 hours!
Me and my lover in the airport!! After surviving his first married and recent flight!! =>
Happy anniversary Mom & Dad!! All this traveling was taking place on their 22nd wedding anniversary! They are such troopers and love birds!!
Walking on the plane!! We are almost there!! Just one more three hour plane ride and we are in Miami!!!
Cole and I walking on the plane!! I am overjoyed ot have my whoel family here with me and Jared!! And I could hardly wait for our cruise!
On our plane!! Horray!!! And it was great because we all sat together!!
The three little boys sat together, and they did wonderfully! We were all suprised! =>
And the love birds got their own row!! What lucky anniversariers!! =>
We made it to Miami!!! Horray!! And now its a waiting game for their luggage...
Luckily all their luggage made it too!! Now time to board the last bus of the night to take us to our inn!!
This is my mom and I on the bus! We were taking pictures of everyone else and we wanted our picture taken, but for some reason we could not coordinate smiling and keeping our eyes opened, so we had to pretend there was something interesting to see => (there really was just a pile of luggage where we were pointing)
Waiting to get our room keys, and lucky for us my Dad was there, in Miami you need to know spaanish, you can hardly get along without knowing spanish!! Its insane!!
Can you tell I was excited to be there? => ANd Jared did not have the vacation bug yet, don't you worry tho, he got it eventually! =>
After getting all situated in our rooms I was the mastermind and found a place to order pizza! Ok, so we were the ones with the pizza fliers, but I brought them to my parents to order! => So at like midnight we ordered pizza for the whole
fam, and while we were waiting we played a tantalizing game of
Uno!
Finally, a little before 1:00 in the morning our pizza came, and we had a Miami pizza party!! Now time for bed and on to our cruise!!!
