Disney Cruise 2010

Finally posting the cruise! Do you know how hard it is to pick certain pictures out of hundreds? It also takes forever to upload!!
We had a great, great time. Nicholas did so well!! Thank you for the prayers. They were felt!
All of the kids did great on the drive down...no fighting! Nicholas did really good and stayed relaxed for most of the time. We went with friends of ours that also have four children-3 boys and one girl too. The girl, Jalyn, is Megan's age. We have known them since I was 19, got married together and had all of our children together. The trip was like a big family vacation.
Waiting to board the ship...


Massive television in front of one of the pools. Way too cool!

Pretty much all we saw in Nassau. We got off, walked around for a bit, and then boarded the ship again. We spent that day by the pools.





This picture is so funny to me!! Do you know that we had MORE kids than the Brady Bunch! Look at all the kids lined up on one side of the table.




The Disney Wonder.


The real ship from Pirates of the Caribbean. It was Davy Jone's ship-way too cool. This was on Disney's Island, Castaway Cay (pronounced Key)

This picture is out of order but it was my birthday cake made out of towels.



Chase, Jake and Brandon relaxing on the hammocks
The water was beautiful and ice cold!!!


Nicholas was chillin'

You can't see it but everyone was laughing at Steve eating the ribs. This is how he always eats!! Even on the island they had awesome food. Everything from ribs, hamburgers, hot dogs, pasta, ice cream, etc.




Love this picture! Megan and Jalyn are only a two months apart in age. They have known each other since birth (as all of the siblings have) They were like this the whole trip. Love it-great memories!


Exhausted after a full day on the island in the Bahama sun.
Our waiters were AWESOME!!! This was Slaven who the girls loved and adored.





Jann and Jalyn.
We told the kids that all the food was free (kind of) so taste everything you wouldn't normally eat. Steve was trying escargot which was actually really good. You just could not think about eating snails :)

Jalyn's reaction to the snails.


Slaven liked to cut the kids food for them and feed them. HILARIOUS!
It was party night at dinner. They said to cheer loud if you liked your waiters. Steve decided to get up on the chair and scream!





And the Disney crew called these faces "princesses?"

Slaven and Georgi.

Hugging Slaven goodbye (yes, I cried)

Not sure what Georgi was doing. It was our goodbye breakfast.
On the longggggg way home....

I just realized that Chuck must have been the picture taker in the group since he was not in the pictures...
