Cruise--Friday

Friday we didn't have any plans so we took Makenzie to Camp Carnival so she could play.  Madi, Scotty and I couldn't find much to do and the pool was WAY too crowded so we went and picked Makenzie up and we ordered a movie in our room.  That night was elegant night at dinner.  The girls looked so cute. 






 After dinner we took the girls to the "Night Owls" so we could go to the comedy club and have a date night.  It was really funny and we had a great time.  When we picked the girls up a little after midnight, they were wide awake running around playing.  Everyone else was sleeping.


Cruise--Thursday

Thursday morning we docked in Mahagny Bay, Roatan.  We ate breakfast and took our time getting off the boat and then headed towards the beach where we stayed the day.  Scotty, Kenzie and I rode on a chair lift that took us up and over the ocean and dropped us off on the beach.  Madi was too little so she walked with Bebe and Papa.



We got to the beach and set up all our gear.  The girls played for a little while in the sand before we got in the water.




 Madison was so sleepy while we were floating.  I laid her down on  my float and she fell asleep.  It was so cute.  I wanted her to have a little nap and I knew if we swam to the shore and got her out she would be super grumpy and wouldn't go back to sleep.  Instead we flipped the bottom of the raft up and over her so she would have some shade and kept her by us while we floated around.


It was a great day at the beach.  Kenzie and I rode the chairlift back and Scotty took Madison with him.  When we got back on the boat we showered and took naps and then got ready for dinner. After dinner Bebe came with us and we went to see a magic/comedy show.  We were a little early and the cruise director that was doing the show came up to me and asked me to be a part of the show.  It was fun but a bummer to know it was all staged.
When the show was over, Bebe stayed with the girls in our room so Scotty and I could go out for the night.  We went to the comedy club and then to the casino.  We lost big, and FAST so we came back and called it a night.

Celebrating Kaitlyn

Tonight Kenzie's cheer squad was invited to cheer at a UTD volleyball game!  The team has adopted our cheerleader Kaitlyn and supported her during her cancer struggles!  She has had leukemia twice and kicked its butt TWICE!!  We were all very excited to go and celebrate her tonight!








The girls did amazing and only one got smacked in the face by a volleyball!!  Madison came with me and I let her run loose with the girls and she LOVED IT!  She got her makeup done and carried around pom poms and danced!!!  It was a great night and I'm so happy for Kaitlyn and her family!!

Cruise--Wednesday

Wednesday the boat docked in Belize.  We hadn't found an excursion that we really liked so we decided to stay on the boat and swim all day.  Best time ever.  It wasn't crowded at all since most everyone had gotten off the boat.  We drank way too many beers and met new friends and had a blast.




After naps and cleaning up we went to dinner.  Kenzie and Madi got up and danced with our waiters during their performance.  
After dinner we went and saw an illusion show.  It was TERRIBLE.  We sat through it though and I think the girls liked the lights and music.   

It had been a LONG day and we were all ready to call it a night.  

Cruise--Tuesday

Tuesday morning was an early one for us.  We had to be up, dressed, eat breakfast and be off the boat in time to catch our excursion.  We made it.  We went to Chankanaub Island in Cozumel for the day.  Scotty and Makenzie got to swim with a dolphin.  Kenzie loved it.  She got to kiss, dance, pet and instruct him to do tricks.




After their dolphin swim was over we headed to the beach to play.  The water was crystal clear and you could see fish swimming around you.  Kenzie loved it but Madi was ready for a nap. 





 We got back on the boat and took showers and naps then headed to dinner.  We took Kenzie to Camp Carnival to play for a little while.  Scotty, Madi and I walked around for a little while and I spotted 2 girls that I follow on blogs.  So random to see them.  They wanted a picture and were super nice.
We went into the Showtime Lounge where they had some dance lessons going on that we stayed and watched for awhile.  Madison was so into it.  She rested her head between the seats and just watched it contently.
