the most fun....day 5

 This was a Tuesday and we woke up in Cozumel. The water was amazing and turquoise.

 We were all so excited about heading to our private beach, Nachi Cocom, and it was all we could have hoped for and more.

 The day flew by way too quickly and was crazy good.

 This night was maxi dress night. We were all sun kissed and ready for dinner back on the boat.

the most fun....day 4

 This was a Monday morning. Alison and I woke up at 5am to go up on the deck and watch the sun rise. We laid on the deck and watched as the boat pulled into port in Progreso Mexico. It was a cloudy morning so we didn't get to see a true sunrise, but it was beautiful and as the sun came up we could see the gorgeous blue/green water.

 Diane and Rhonda headed out on an excursion to see the ruins and the rest of us took it slow, laid by the pool, and eventually got off the boat to check out the shops on the dock.

 We got back on the boat for lunch and spent the afternoon laying on the adult only deck with its beautiful blue chairs.

 Monday was hat night....I loved hat night.

the most fun....day 3

On this day we woke up in the middle of the ocean. I sat in the window of our bedroom and looked out. Amazing. We got coffee in our room at 7:30 and it was dreamy to sit there and stare at the ocean with our coffee. We had breakfast in the dining room and then spent most of the day in our deck chairs overlooking the pool.

 At some point in the middle of the day we drove into a little rain storm. It was one of the most beautiful sights and the best part of my day. We found a covered area on the side of the boat where we could sit and watch.

This night our theme was black dresses, tiaras and boas.

steel drums. thriller. rain. right, left, center. lobster dinner. conga line. piano bar. bread pudding. karaoke. hot tub. friend with the dreads. flat millie. monkey heads. father's day. bingo. woop there it is. dance club.

the most fun....day 2

 Our morning started at the Hampton Inn in downtown Mobile. We had coffee in bed and lots of laughs. Then headed downstairs for breakfast. When we stepped out the front of the hotel we could see our boat in the distance....the Elation! We got to the boat around 11 and stood in an hour long line to check in. We got our sail and sign cards and walked up the big ramp to board the ship. 

Once we were on it was like a big party. We had fruity drinks by the pool. We laid in the sun, laughed and danced as the boat pulled away from shore.

 We had a theme for our dinner clothing every night and the first night was feather earring night.

the most fun...day 1

 It was a beautiful Friday morning when I met up with these eleven lovely ladies to set out on the adventure of a lifetime. This day and the five that followed will forever be some of my fondest memories. These women have taken up permanent residence in my heart. We are the WOO and it was #cruisazy and truly THE MOST FUN!

 We left NLR and headed to Mobile, making a lunch stop at Rhoda's Famous Hot Tamales. It was a super fun road trip and some of the best food ever.

It took all day, but we reached Mobile in time for a delicious dinner (there will be a food theme) and lots of laughs before resting up to get on the cruise ship in the morning.

Simon is FIVE!

 In June, just before Alison and I left on "the cruise", we all had the pleasure of celebrating Simon's fifth birthday. It was a pool party full of friends and fun.

 I love all these cute little faces....especially the ones that Simon and Campbell are making while singing happy birthday. Campbell loves to sing and Simon is not so sure about being sung to.
