Cruisin'

Last time I wrote was on our flight to Florida where we were getting ready for our Pampered Chef cruise to the Bahamas...well our cruise came and went and was fabulous, so I must write about it!

We stayed in Miami for a few days before just to explore the city I must say not so impressed, my favorite part of that city was for sure...The Beach! We walked on the boardwalk of South Beach and Loved that, but other then that I was just ready to go crusin'! Bahamas here we come!

We boarded the Majesty of the Seas on Royal Caribbean and got ready for our few days at sea! Item number ONE the patch, must get the patch behind the ear for motion sickness and good thing we did cause the boat was ROCKY! Then it was time to explore, it's amazing how much they can fit on that boat!

The cruise was wonderful it was rocky and rainy for the first two days so we missed our excursion at coco cay which was sad it was suppose to be parasailing so that's one for next time we go! The last day was nice and we were able to go to Nassau which was where we spent our honeymoon 11 1/2 years ago so I was stoked to be able to go there again! On our honeymoon we swam with the sharks so this time I wanted to do something different so we swam with the dolphins! One word to describe it AWESOME! It was such a cool experience those animals are strong and beautiful!

Then since we did our excursion through blue lagoons they have their own private island where we got to snorkel and hang on the beach a little bit, then it was back to the boat for FOOD! Okay yes the food was yummy, everyone always asks about the cruise food and we did enjoy it, I am a bit of a food snob, but it was good and yes you can eat 24/7!

We had a wonderful get away on our Bahama cruise thanks to the Pampered Chef and also a big thanks to my mother in law for coming to AZ to watch our kids they had fun with grandma! Bonus we came home to a beautiful garden that I thought would never really grow but guess what we have lots of awesome, yummy, wonderful veggies! Sweet!

My hot Katniss

My beautiful Elle had tumbling pictures today and I had to snap a photo of her, I thought she looked super cute in her flames! It reminded me of Hunger Games...she's growing up so fast and getting so beautiful! She's one gorgeous,talented girl! Here are some other pictures they took of her! 

Hula hooping chicken

Our little Cooper was a hula hooping chicken for his school musical Little Red Riding Hood. He did such a great job hula hooping to the song Rockin' Robin, I think he only dropped the hoop once! He was the cutest little chicken on stage with lots of rhythm! Way to go our cute little chicken!

Lazy Daisy

Today I think Daisy was feeling sorry for me because she knew how much laundry I was about to do, she was secretly telling me to join her and take a nap...I love my lazy Daisy!

Easter traditions

I love Easter...I love doing the egg hunts, the Easter Egg dying, reading the story of The Reserection and making Reserection cookies, Easter Baskets and even our traditional Easter pictures at the Bower's even thought i look terrible, but oh well it's a picture and my kids will love it someday!  It seems like every year I write that we do the same thing and we pretty much do, but that's what I love about Easter the TrAdItIoNs!
