FLIPnOUT

A friend in our ward has set up some pretty fun things for our kids to do over the summer at a discounted rate. We have been out of town or had other plans for most of the activities but last week we were able to join the group and go to FLIPNOUT. It is a giant warehouse with a bunch of trampolines put together and on the other side are a bunch of bouncy houses. It was really nice because it was only opened for our group so the kids could run free without me having to worry. Needless to say the kids had a great time.

WESTERN CARIBBEAN CRUISE

For Jordan's Grandparents 55th wedding anniversary the family went on a cruise of the Western Caribbean. We went July 31st to August 8th. There was 12 of us and we had the most wonderful time. The only two missing from the family was my two children. They were invited, but I am sure glad we chose to leave them with Grandma. We can not thank Jordan's Grandparent's enough for the most wonderful time we had. It was so nice to spend the time together as husband & wife and also a family. The trip was unforgettable.Getting the luggage for 12 people didn't take as long as I thought it wouldThe bus ride from the hotle to the Cruise Ship, don't we all look so excited!!!Getting ready to board the ship

Making sure we had our life preservers!!! I'm still not sure the real reason for this drill, I'm pretty sure if the ship is sinking I won't be going to my designated evacuation location.

PRINCESS CAYS, BAHAMAS (MONDAY)


Monday we spent the day playing in the ocean. I couldn't believe how beautiful the ocean was and also how warm the water is. We definitely were not in California!!!

OCHO RIOS, JAMAICA (WEDSNESDAY)


Jamaica was probably my favorite island we went to. It was just so beautiful. Every where you looked was just so green. When we got there we took a bus ride to the JAMAICAN BOBSLED. This was the chair lift we took to the top of the mountain.

We then headed over to DUNN'S RIVER FALLS. We walked up the waterfall. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but it was a lot of fun.

They asked us to hold hands while walking up the falls, that didn't last to long!


Having lots of fun
