The kids had a blast hanging out with their cousins and hitting some of the cruise sponsored kids activities. We had a private dining area with 5 tables where we would meet every night. We went to the beach, zip lining (14 total- it was so fun! I went upside down with the guide on one), paragliding (Conner went with Jaiden), and on a boat ride.
We had a private party one day in one of the lounges. It was a surprise party for Mom & Papa. We had punch, cake, did karaoke, and Jocelyn made them a movie we watched with pictures and music. Our brother-in-law, Jay designed some t-shirts for all of us and we wore them for the surprise party. We even pulled off the surprise, they loved it!
Kali loved doing karaoke during the day with her cousins. Sophie got up once too and sang, Mary Had a Little Lamb. The kids also loved swimming, mini golfing, basketball, and getting ice cream cones whenever they wanted. We got all dressed up a couple times for formal nights. WE got a big family picture taken that Jimmy's parents bought for each of us to keep. (our is hanging in our front entry) One night we skipped the sit down dinner and went to the buffet and played cards. We saw the family friendly comedian a couple times also. There were lots of Utah families there because it was our Spring Break. Conner found a friend, Kamryn, that he kept in touch with after. (more when we first came home than now)
Sophie enjoyed Club Carnival. They face painted her face a few times and did art projects. She took a nap every day late with me in the cabin and then she’d get to stay up late with us.
That was a once in a lifetime experience being there with everyone in the family minus our two missionaries. The kids keep asking us when we can do another cruise with their cousins.
