Cruising with My Family

 

Events still take me by surprise so one day I was delighted

to discover that my Grama and Grampa, aunts and uncle

came to our house to go on a Caribbean Cruise to

celebrate Grama and Grampa's 40th Wedding Anniversary.

You can safely say I fell in love with my Aunt Stacy.

(To better see the photos, double click on the first one and scroll through.)

 Videos of Uncle Simeon's dog Gizmo kept me entertained

 especially as we waited to board the ship.

Here we all are!

Ready to Cruise!

Aunt Stacy and Uncle Simeon, Aunt Sarah,

Grama and Grampa, and, of course,

Judah, Mommy, Daddy and me, Elena!

 We ladies are exploring the ship.

 Look at the wake!

 Yep, Aunt Stacy is sure nice.

I'm so calm with her.

 Grampa and I on our combined balcony.

 Let me in, Grama!

 Ah!  Enjoying the pool with Mommy.

 All dressed for supper and waiting for everyone else.

 There were plenty of elevators and stairs to go

up and down on.

 While Mommy and Daddy and my aunts and uncle

went zip-lining on Jamaica

I lounged on Deck 12.

 Such a nice day!

 Grama and I are trying these petal chairs.

What a wonderful way to enjoy a beautiful day!

 The Stroller is "just in case" but since Grama's handy,

I don't need it.

Judah let me wear his Captain's Hat.

 Mommy and I are dancing with the waiter during dinner.

 Cuddle time with Aunt Stacy!

 I'm too short to go on the slide with Judah

 but no matter!

 I love

 getting soaked

by all the water falling from the slides!

 It was SO great being with Daddy and Mommy and Judah!

 With Aunt Sarah ready to go to dinner again.

He's not a real sailor, but has a nice lap to sit on here

on the Grand Cayman.

 We went to this beach in Mexico.

 It's a nice hot day!

 Grama took me for a stroll in the botanical garden

 and Mayan ruins.  A great time for a little nap!

 Take a close look.  Grampa and I have the same toes!

Grama noticed this interesting bit of genetics!

 and my Grama and Mommy.

 There is plenty of room to run around!

 Who needs

 a club

 to play Mini-Golf?

 Bye! Bye! at the end of a great week at Sea!
