March 1st - 8th 2009 7 day Mexician Riveria Cruise
Jason, Heather and Alison, Jared and Jenny, Jamon and Tasha
Royal Carribean Mariner of the Seas
Finally - the long awaited pictures. I have a really good excuse...anybody heard of Twilight?? Well my neighbor let me borrow the Twilight book; and on the airplane I thought I would give it a shoot....well 3 weeks later I finished all 4 books and watched the movie!! LOVE IT!! (thanks Mo) Anyway I've been a little pre-occipied with the little series.
After a lot of talk and planning and serching for the perfect crusing couples we did it! Our first real trip away from our girls, hard of course, but well worth it.
Jason made an awesome video and anyone interested can check it out here...
These are just a few pictures I had, the video is much better!

How fun, and is this random or what? We were on the Mariner of the Seas last year when we went to the Eastern Caribbean. It's a beautiful boat isn't it? I especially loved watching the water out the back of the boat while stuffing our faces in the buffet. ;)

Adrienne said...

Wow, Looks fantastic! Makes me want to call my travel agent tomorrow. :)

Joey and Nettifer said...

Oh I am so jealous! Looks like you guys had fun. When I go on that cruise I'm taking a photo of makinley to prove she's my daughter. I can't wait!

Staci said...

i told makinley to look at your blog. i told her, 'Sis. Bell went on a cruise and guess who she saw?' she said nothing. i scrolled down and said, 'YOU!' She squealed! She thought it was cool that you were with her in Mexico.

cmshort said...
