shiver me timbers we're back!

well we just arrived back in easley last night from our week long cruise. we are still a little dizzy from all the traveling we've done in the last couple of weeks. the boys had a fun time with their pipo and mima. their visit with them include a trip to busch gardens to visit with elmo and friends, and a fun time at chuckie cheese. i'm sure pipo and mima are now catching up on their much needed sleep after sharing their bed with evan. i really missed the boys while we were away. i thought about them the entire time...it's a mommy thing! matt and i took advantage of all the different activities the cruise had to offer. we swam, we got sun, i drank fruity beverages, we sang, we danced, and we ate, and ate, and ate!!! there is no question we gained weight with the way we ate. my dieting has already begun! we meet lots are really nice people too. luckily we were assigned a dinner table with a very nice couple from kentucky...the peeters. they also had two children, and were around our age so we had a lot to talk about. our cruise was five days, and was supposed to go to two ports, and two days at sea, but on the fifth day we had to stop in key west because an older gentleman needed medical attention, so we got to key west just in time to enjoy the gorgeous key west sunset! in a really short amount of time we were able to see my wonderful cousin ofelita & manolito who graciously dropped us off at the port and picked us up! thank you/gracias primos. we also were able to see our sweet nephews aidan and benjamin too. we never pass up a chance to see them! we love you guys.
now i've got to get back to getting all the dirty laundry done...sigh. matt has three days off this coming week, so we've got to dedicate ourselves to the packing. he's only got six more days of work at kool smiles, and our closing is still set for june 15...soon!

It looks like you had a great time! We are going on a cruise in Dec. for our 10 yr Ann. I can't wait! WE got to meet Guy Harvey when we were down there a couple of years ago. It may have just been the highlight of Michaels trip!
