Welcome to...

Yes, believe it or not, Cory and I took a Cruise to the Bahamas. Thanks to Cory's work and good friends who persuaded us. We had such a great time!
This is the HUGE ship we were on for 4 days. It was nice to get away for a while and not have to worry about the stresses of life. BUT we were so happy to be home again. What can I say?.... I missed my little kiddos!

I thought it would be so nice and relaxing to visit some botanical gardens while we were in Nassau. The brochure said it was just a mile away so Cory and I decided to walk. It was a nice walk, but longer than we had bargained for. When we finally arrived at the garden it wasn't in the greatest shape. It looked like it hadn't been taken care of in a LONG time. So, that was a bummer. After that experience we decided to take a taxi to Atlantis and take a tour of the beautiful hotel and everything that they had to offer there. It was amazing! It had an aquarium inside the gigantic hotel along with a beautiful beach resort. We were so glad we took this tour.
This was a little eating area at one time I think. But it led us into an underground tunnel where we saw the fish and sharks. It was really neat! We just had to take a picture of this for Madison because it looks like it could be Little Mermaid's castle.

Coop and the cool glowing jellyfish.

Outside of Atlantis... everything was beautiful!

Feeling like King and Queen for the day!

This is a picture most, but not all, of the group that went on the cruise.


And for your viewing pleasure... YES, Cory did Karaoke on the cruise. (Something he told me when we got on the ship that he would never do.) The gang persuaded him otherwise...
(Sorry I only got a clip of it because my battery was running low.)

Wow a cruise....Josh wants to go so bad, but I think I watched Titanic to many times growing up that I'm too scared. As for the Henderson's...it is Todd & Lisa that we know. We met them in the Hillcrest 1 ward about 3 years ago and have been friends ever since.

I adore that black outfit! You always have such classy dresses/skirts. I'm slightly jealous, except for the whole boat thing. I'm not a fan of boats :)
