Tuesday

A Weekend with Great...

I'm so grateful for my relationship with my grandma.
She is someone I talk to almost everyday, if not, every other day.

In March she called me and needed a vacation so we booked a weekend getaway!

We LOVE having Allegiant Air in Idaho Falls :)
 We flew out Friday afternoon into Long Beach, CA
 Took the taxi to our ship... 
{I think we were literally one of the last ones to board the ship}
Getting there later was awesome... we walked right on without any lines!
Got settled and then it was time to eat...
Cruise ships are literally a floating buffet, right?!
{Yummy shrimp cocktail}
 First taste of tilapia... devine!
 Our head waiter was the Rockstar of the show :)
 A taste of Key Lime pie...
 and Molten Chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream... 
 but my favorite... {I ordered it EVERY night}
Can't get enough of this stuff... excited for Summer!
 And back to the room after a fun night...
Not quite sure what this little guy was.
 Saturday, we hit the beach... yay!!
 Local resort nearby...
 Fresh fruit...
 What a fun day with my grandma!!
 Perfect spot for a nap :)
 Don't like the ocean... no problem :)
 Then we took a walk to find some lunch...
 I couldn't help but love these!
 We found the PERFECT spot for lunch...
 Fresh tortillas...
 In the most amazing environment...
 My dream back patio...
 BEST mexican we have ever had...
Best part ONLY $6
 Rossy our tour guide... awesome dry humor :)
 Then back to the ship...
These seals were sooo noisy!!
 Back to the ship for a talent show and yes...
more food!
This time... shrimp & lobster
 And a cute elephant waiting for us after dinner :)
 Saturday night we went to a talent show
and these were the judges...
This guy played in Seabiscuit and this is his agent.
He told us all about the behind the scenes of an actor's life.
Wow!! Amazing stories were told and our eyes were opened.
{Did you know that only 1% of actors/actresses make a living off of acting alone, all others have a side career that REALLY pays the bills} 
 Very impressed with this guy.
 And the WINNER of a vocal contract...
She was awesome!! {So excited for her}
She lives in LA, so it's perfect :)
 After the private cocktail party we headed to the Sushi Bar...
 Atrium {Center of the ship}
 Salmon for dinner...
 And a giraffe? waiting that night.
 I took pictures of the ship the last day...
 Fun water slide...
 Miniature Golf...
 Our ship was parked right next to the Queen Mary...
 Serenity Deck... perfect for adults only looking to enjoy the sun
without the busyness of the rest of the ship.
 We hung out on this sun deck...
The weather really was perfect while we were on the ship!

It was an amazing weekend!!
We soaked up the sun...
Read some books...
Laid on the beach...
Shopped...
and slept in!!

Thanks GREAT for a fun weekend
&
Thank you Dreamtrips for another amazing vacation!!

Sunday

Updating May...

And some of April :)

Easter was fun this year...
The boys loved coloring eggs and got pretty excited when
they woke up to find that the Easter bunny had come and hid their eggs and left them some gifts.
 They are best buddies :)
 All dressed up for church...
 Then to the egg hunt with Gord's sister's fam...
 They grow up too fast!
We celebrated Gord's 31st birthday! 
{Happy birthday to John and Cambrey too}
Last week Tydon was helping put a folding chair away and he 
got his finger stuck in it. OUCH!! 
Mother's Day was perfect...
I got to sleep in!!
The boys made me pancakes that said "We luv U"
and a gift certificate for some pampering.
I'm so grateful to be a mom :)
  Newest excitement around here besides warm weather...
NO TRAINING WHEELS!!
Ready Set...
 Go!
 So proud :)
It only took him a couple hours!

What a stud :)
Gord is such a good dad. 
He LOVES his boys and we LOVE having him home!
