The Fun Continues

Tampa, Florida

Port for Carnival, Inspirations Ship

The Kids!!

The water slides on board!

Getting back from our first formal dinner

and look what we found!

We arrived at our port around 11am and had to take back the rental cars and drop off our bags. Once everyone was together we stood in line, and stood in line some more until finally it was time to get our picture taken for our card. As we boarded the ship we were amazed by how big it was and how much food!!! Food was EVERYWHERE!!!!! We ate, drank and finally our suitcases were at our rooms. We started to get comfortable with our home for the next 5 days and couldn't wait to set sail!!!

Before we knew it we were on our way and it was time to get ready for our first formal dinner, and I have to that was one of the best parts as our waiter was awesome as well as his assistant. After dinner we roamed around and after a long day, we went back to our room and crashed.

As our adventure continues.........

January Family Vacation

2011

Nico on his 4th plane trip!

Our first day of vacation started out right with sunny skies and 70 degree temperatures, we couldn't of asked for more. Everything went smoothly and we made it to Aunt Patty's without any hassles. Friday was spent with our Florida family and friends, and getting ready to get on our Cruise the next day. It was great to put on shorts and be able to be barefoot again!!!!

Our vacation certainly started out right!!!!

Disney On Ice: Toy Story 3

We had so much fun on Friday night at the Q watching Toy Story 3 on Ice! It was an adorable version of all three movies and they did a great job recreating the stories on ice. Nico now has to have Slinky the Dog toy, but instead of buying it we have decided to make it a reward for learning to write NICO. So far he has really tried hard, but the thing that is giving him the most trouble is the N.....but hopefully soon we'll have a Slinky the Dog at our house!!!

Dippin' Dots!!!

Toy Story 3!

Sugaring Kourt up!

So glad Kourt could take Daddy's place since he had to work, and I know both kids had a great time!!!!

Until our next "Toy Story" adventure.....

New Year's Eve 2010

We had so much fun this year on New Year's, Nico had his neighborhood friends over to play for a New Year's Eve kids party. We ate too much, played too hard, and watched to much TV but the three kids had a great New Years. They even stayed up until Midnight to watch the ball drop and we toasted into 2011! Of course the kids had sparkling grape juice and looked at all of us like we were crazy when we showed them what toasting was, but it definitely was a memory we'll never forget.
