Even more Cruisin' with the Floyd's!


If I ever finish putting these on here it will be a miracle! I mentioned I was cutting my blog entry short because I was heading the Heber to buy a Christmas tree tag... well by the time I got there, they had sold the 6 they had when I left!!!! Drats! It was still a fun ride... and I listened to Christmas music on the way...and I was alone so no one told me it was too early!


Now a few more pictures....



This was on "formal night"... we got to dress up and hang out with Mickey Mouse!

Dan and I on the excursion in Cozumel, Mexico. We went out to a beach were Dan and McKenna got to go snorkeling... and on the way we got to stop and see some scary creatures in a "lagoon"...


McKenna and Courtney getting excited about heading to the beach!



How scary is this guy?! The tour guide started blowing a whistle and all of a sudden here they come... Dan asked them how they could "call" them in... and the guy told us they "used to" throw in chicken... if you ask us, they still do! Just not when tourists are around!!!!!!

This is more like it! Scary prehistoric creatures... or white sandy beaches and palm trees?!



Courtney and I played on the beach for about 2 hours while Dan and Kenna snorkeled... they had a blast and so did we!!!! Can she pose or what?!

This Courtney at dinner with her very favorite dessert! A Mickey Mouse ice cream that they would put sprinkles on... she loved it! As a side note... on the way back to the ship from our fabulous beach excursion, a palm tree blew in the opening on the side of the truck and smacked me in the face. Apparently it hit my eye hard enough to burst a blood vessel, and I look like a freak! What other vacation could I possibly go on, where I could use a "pirate patch" to hide my blood red nasty eye... and no one would think anything of it?!!!!!

Me and my pirate girls!!! This was at dinner in the restraunt "Animators Palate"....
Dan and the girls... I've never seen Dan as a "bad boy"... as long as this is as "bad" as it gets!

Crazy Courtney... doing some karate moves as a "pirate" in our room! Then we went up on deck for the "Pirates IN the Caribbean" party! Seriously... can you believe my luck! I got to hide my scary ugly eye...what a vacation!

I will do the rest later!

More Cruisin' with the Floyd's!

I should have finished putting pictures on here the other day... but I got distracted and didn't think about it! Here are some more of the fun ones!
This is Courtney in her life vest during our mandatory safety drill... those 12 foot waves are a little much... I don't think plugging your nose is going to help!

This is the "warning" posted at Castaway Cay (Disney's private island) So... what you're saying is pretty much anything could attack me... and we've been warned?...who wants to go swimming?!


And this is a picture of our cruise ship.... just kidding! The "Black Pearl" has found a home in the lagoon at Castaway Cay! It kind of goes with the theme of Pirates IN The Carribean.


Our cute little family with Mickey Mouse on the beach... wow, the sand sure looks nice right now!

Courtney with her ice cream cone... she loves this picture and wanted to make sure I posted it!


Courtney and Snow White....

Courtney with Belle...


Courtney and McKenna at dinner one evening... you can't tell... but we were a little sea sick!

I will post more later... I just found out I have to drive to Heber to buy a Christmas tree permit! That is so random... you have to believe it's true!

Cruisin' with the Floyd Family!










Our Disney Cruise finally arrived! We booked it so long ago, I think even Dan and I were beginning to wonder if we were really going! However, it was worth the wait... and here are the pictures to prove it!





We left on Friday, October 24th and flew to Orlando, Florida. We stayed the night at the Hyatt, and the next morning rode in a very "Happy Bus" sent by the Disney people to pick us up, and headed to Port Canaveral. (#1 Courtney on the plane reading the "safety brochure". Her face

says it all!) (#2 Us on the patio at the hotel) (#3 The girls getting to watch a movie on the way to the ship!)



On Saturday afternoon we set sail on what was bound to be a great adventure! Our first stop, was Disney's private island, Castaway Cay in the Bahamas! It was so great! We played on the beach and got a little sun... McKenna was in heaven!
