Cruise time

So here is a few highlights from our weekend escape. We had a lot of fun and I am so thankful for my Mom who came to watch the kids for me.

We went out right in the middle of Hurricane Hanna so the first night was SO rocky! It really was awful. Many people did not make it through dinner. The Abbuhl's were fine and definitely weren't giving up dinner. After we woke up on Friday morning the seas were much smoother and the rest of the trip was perfect.


Of course there was eating.....I am so glad Chris stopped the diet for the weekend....


Ashley is so crazy I love her.................


When we got on the ship we were told we wouldn't be going to Nassau Bahamas the next day as planned but instead would be going to Freeport on Saturday. We tried to make the best of it there....


Pamela making my girls their personalized souvenir purses....

We saw a ton of these huge crooked tail lizards.....

The boys were dying to find some conch to eat. We came upon this stand thinking we hit the jackpot...until we found out the conch were right there live and they were serving them raw with some onions and other veggies.......

So instead we ate here..............gotta love the Hole in the Wall restaurants.

Chris and I in our fancy suite......
The girls..............

The guys.......
God's beautiful world from our balcony................

I can't thank everyone enough who helped make this happen for Chris 40th. I know he will remember it for a long time!
