Vacation












We recently went on a little weekend vacation. We left on a Friday morning and came back on a Monday. We flew to Orlando and then took a shuttle to Port Canaveral and left on a cruise from there. We went on Splendor of the Seas it is a Royal Caribbean boat. We took my sister to help with Grace. We got them their own room down the hall from us.

Our first stop was Nassau in the Bahamas and then Coco Cay. Coco Cay is an island that Royal Caribbean has bought that they use exclusively. It was gorgeous. The weather was so beautiful, Not to hot and breezy. Grace was not afraid of the ocean at all. She would go straight to it, walk by it and let her feet get wet and go all the way out to her knees. It was so precious to see her play in the sand and water. At Nassau we went to Black Beard Cay and stayed the day there it was beautiful and relaxing. At one point Grace went in front of all the beach chairs that everyone was sitting in and starting dancing to the Reggae music that was playing and everyone was clapping at her, it was so cute!!!!

Grace had a rough time on the boat. She was tired and crabby from when we got there until we got home. She loves to sleep in her own bed at night and she pretty much cried her self to sleep every night we were there. She went to sleep at 1230am on Friday night, 237am in Saturday night, and 1230am on Sunday night. It was rough!!!! Then come morning time she was so mad that we were waking her up to do things. She ate like a pig everyday and flirted with multiple waiters, staff, etc. We would walk in and people would say "Hi Grace!".

The flights were tough as well. We gave her Benadryl on the way down there and she slept in Jamie's arms the entire flight. The way home- Not so easy!!! All in all we had a wonderful time and made memories that I will never forget.
