Let's go Cruisin'!

After both of Benton's grandparents had passed away on his moms side, my cute mother in law, Linda decided to take her family on a vacation. Which means she took a total of 26 family members on a cruise. We found out about a year ago and have been planning ever since. Everyone thankfully was able to come. If you know me, you know how much I love being with family. The best part of the vacation was us all being together. Thank you so much Linda and Tony, it was a wonderful gift!

We left out of Galveston, Texas. Here's Benton on the top level of the ship before we left the port with Galveston behind him.

Once we got on the ship, we first headed for food. Once we as in me felt better Cambree wanted to go splash in the pool. I get really ornery and a little crazy when I'm lacking food. The pool was closed off but sure enough that didn't stop Cambree from jumping in with her sweatshirt on.

The second day of the cruise was a sea day, doesn't the ocean look beautiful?

We of course had to go swimming but this time was for reals! I had to get a pic with Miss Cambree before she got all wet.

She is such a water girl. She could play all day in the pool.

Afterwards Cambree snuggled with her daddy before dinner. Cambree loves her mama but LOVES I mean LOVES to snuggle with her daddy. I took a million pictures of her laying all over Benton. She sure does love her daddy.

That night we had our fancy dinner in the dining room. It was nice all being together for dinner. We of course couldn't all fit on one table, but it was nice being in the same place at the same time!

My favorite part of our dinner was our dessert. Warm chocolate molten cake and ice-cream, yummy!

The third day was another sea day. I obviously didn't take my camera with me much that day because I don't have hardly any pictures. But I have to share this cute little story with you all. Cambree was really confused as to where Roxy our dog was. She couldn't stop asking about her, "Where's Saucy?" I got these picture of her asking about Roxy. You can see the concern in her face. Oh and as you can tell she just woke up.

Where's Saucy?

I have been wondering where you have been...vacationing, nothing better. So much fun too. A cruise sounds delightful, especially with family. I have heard cruises are the funnest when you go with a big group. Thiago and I want to go next spring for our 10 year anniversary, you have inspired me for reals...I am going to have to make it happen. Can't wait to see the rest...
