Our Oasis




Our boat on the left :)


Formal night


Our favorite hot tubbin' spot


Catamaran in St. Maarten
By far the best trip we've ever been on....and we can't wait to do it again!
We spent a week on the "biggest ship in the world" with my sister Cristen and her hubby Kurt. This marks our 5th trip together over the past 7 years...and this one tops them all! My only complaint was the nervous moments at check-in(update your passport after you get married, enough said!!). We had several gorgeous days, but welcomed the windy cool days to ease our sunburns. We rock climbed, did the zip line, boogie boarded/surfed on the Flowrider, rode the carousel, attended comedy shows, musicals and water shows...hmm, played bingo, scavenger hunts, drank nummy drinks!!, ate tons of food, hot tubbed whenever we wanted, and slept in every morning!! We also did land excursions at each stop: catamaran with snorkeling, ride to the top of St. Thomas and a bus tour in the Bahama.

It was great having a couple that had been on a cruise and knew the ins and outs of it all. It's amazing how well we all got along the whole trip...spending virtually every minute together. Where are we going next?!

So thankful to all those that helped watch the kids so we could go on this beautiful cruise. We appreciate it!!

Hope the snow melts soon and summer comes...my "sunny weather" hangover from the cruise is bad :)

"Mommy smile"

Such a cutie!
Connor enjoys using my phone, video camera, his camera and our digital camera to take pictures whenever he can. These are a few from one of the many days last week we were "stuck inside" due to negative degrees outside.
