Our Cruise into Mexico

Every year the company Chris works for rewards their workers with a trip if they can meet a certain level. Chris sold enough accounts last year to go on the trip, which was a cruise to Mehico. I was really excited. A day before we were supposed to leave Chris started feeling sick. The flu was going around and I was PRAYING he hadn't caught it... but he had. He didn't want to skip the trip so we left our little munchkin Everett with my family. Shout out to my mom, dad, and sisters for all their help. We drove to California with another couple, picked up another guy they work with, then got dropped off in Long Beach where the ship was docked. Chris went straight to the room to sleep and I went straight to the food. I had heard the food is the best part, but I wasn't very impressed. I was only about 8 weeks pregnant so my senses were a little off. The ship was crazy. So much to do, and way too many kids. There was ping pong, mini golf, a water slide, a few pools, decks to lay out on, comedy shows at night, and a ton of stuff. We did almost nothing the majority of the time we were on the ship. There was no charge for room service so with Chris feeling like crap we just ordered in and enjoyed not having to get out of bed. We ported first in Cabo, just for a few hours. We ate some yummy food, walked around, I snorkeled a little, and then we got back on the ship. We were docked in Puerto Vallarta a day later. Chris was starting to feel better and we didn't have to be back on the boat at any certain time so we went exploring. We laid on the beach drinking pina coladas (which are my favorite thing ever, any icy frozen drink is delicious to me), we walked around a market, found a candy store, and ate lunch on the beach. The next day we did a little more of the same stuff. The ship ended up having some sort of issue and needed to be docked another day for repairs so we went to the mall to get wifi on our phones to let everyone know what was happening. I had a pretty large melt down when they made the announcement that we weren't leaving, but it just made coming home to my baby even better! We bought him a sweet little poncho and he is too cute in it. Now for pictures!
