Our Caribbean Cruise - Mar/Feb 2010!

What an anticipated vacation! We always escape in February from the cold, dreary Utah winter. But this trip was extra special. With the twins on the way, we knew it would probably be our last "big" trip for a few years. I was finally over my morning sickness and very much looking forward to a warm, relaxing vacation! And it was everything we anticipated and wanted. We had a WONDERFUL time. Our ship, the Crown Princess, was the nicest ship we have ever been on. The food was wonderful and I (and everyone else) ate to our heart's content! The babies loved all the fresh fruit (especially the watermelon). The weather was perfect; we just had a fabulous time! Why does it have to end???

We always carry our bathing suits onto the ship in our hand luggage so we can immediately hit the pools and hottubs (it can take hours for your luggage to get delivered to your room). How wonderful it was to get into a bathing suit after months of winter!

Brady and I on formal night.
On formal night, they had a champagne waterfall and invited the ladies to come and help pour the champagne! Too bad I couldn't drink any of it!

Brady and Gibson swimming in the pool (1 of 6!). I was sitting on the deck watching a movie - there's a huge movie screen outdoors above the swimming pool. What a fun ship!


Gibson in the kid's area. It's about 10:00 at night and they were relaxing and watching a movie.
He absolutely LOVES the kid's area. They do so many fun activities: Pizza parties, crafts, pajama parties, face painting, Spongebob day, etc.


On a side note - we sailed out of Ft. Lauderdale - home of the Oasis of the Seas. It's the world's largest cruise ship that just set sail in December. It's HUGE!!!!!
