Jumping Jack flash

We went and watched Karaoke several times one night some of us even participated. I left the singing up to those that can carry a tune. Dan walked in the room and knew what he wanted to sing right away. The Lori and Kelli took a lot longer. It was fun to See Dan sing. Lori took this video with her camera.

food (this is for you Jill)

We sat with Dan and Debby at most dinners. Debby wouldn't let us eat unless she was able to take a picture of the food. She blamed it on her sister Jill. She said Jill would love to see the photos. We soon found that if we took the pictures of the food our self we could get to eat faster. It is kind of nice to look back and see what we ate. I enjoyed the food so much I even bought their cookbook.

dinner

We spent a good deal of our time eating. Our favorite place to eat was in the dinning room at dinner. The formal nights had the best food. We were all on our best behavor.

Magic

Every night we would go to dinner and when we got back these animals would appear. It sure was fun coming home to find out what would be waiting for us on our bed. It was so much fun I bought the book that shows how to make 30 different towel animals. The kids had fun with it.

Depression

Monday on the news it said it was the most depressing day of the year. People were back to work and had not had a day off sense the "holidays" They were starting to get their bills from overspending at Christmas and the weather was usually really cold.

I am depressed. Because I just got back from a great vacation. This is where we were just a few short days ago, it seems like years now that we are back in the cold.

We spent 7 days being spoiled on the Carnival Glory. We sailed the western Caribbean with David's parents and siblings. I have never enjoyed a week more.

We Danced

We swam and went on the water slide.

We never made a bed and our room was always clean

We saw amazing sites and climbed temples

We ate from the minute we got on the boat to the minute we got off. We would order everything at dinner and sometimes they would bring us even more than we ordered. It was fun.

new years eve

Everyone with new MP3 players were showing off their music choices.

Brecklyn was the best Curses player she was so good that she got annoying.
we hosted the Shumway New Years Eve party. We had food and played games. Curses and 7's were two of our favorite games for the night. We had 29 people and only 1 didn't stay awake until midnight. Poor little Natalie fell asleep just 15 minutes before midnight. Now we can rest until next year.

Derek's Christmas

Derek had a Buzzlightyear Christmas. His Photo did not fit on the last post so he gets his own. He loved Christmas I think this year he finally got it. HE loved opening gifts. He did not want to be rushed. He took his time and played with most of his gifts as he opened them. He Loves the movie Toy Story. HE got many of the action figures from the movie. He was very excited.
