Justin Is Back!!!
Justin served his mission on Salta Argentina! He got home about two days after we got back from our cruise. Dennis and Trish went all the way down there to go get him! We are all sooo happy he is back! He can speak Spanish, play the guitar and some how he picked up a southern accent while he was at it.Best Sign ever! Good idea Garrett!
Playing catch up!
I am sooo behind on this blog! We have done so many things that it is hard to remember them all let alone blog about them! The Day we got home from our cruise there was a letter in the mail and it was from the prophet! Jason Got his mission call! We were all so excited. It was a great way to end the cruise! Even though we were sad the cruise was over we were even happier to get home to his call.

The Family Cruise
The Norwegian Star was the name of the ship we sailed across the ocean on. My parents took our family on a week long cruise to Mexico! It was a blast! We not only got to do a ton of fun things, but but got to be together. This was especially fun because this was the first time Brandon has ever been on a cruise. I am pretty sure he loved it. You have tons of fun things to do, and you get to eat all you want, all the time. His goal was to have ice cream 3 times a day, and I am pretty sure he surpassed that!
We did karaoke several times. Dad signed us up secretly to surprise us. The Boys kept trying to get him back, but it never worked.The entertainment was really cool on the ship. These Chinese acrobats were incredible, there was a really good magician, fun singers and dancers! Brandon did say that now he knows exactly what Simon Cowell means when he says it was a cruise ship performance.
One night we all got dressed up fancy. I love that!
We did everything possible in the short amount of time we had in Cabo! Not only did we ride ATV's on the beach but we also went snorkeling! We had sooo much Fun!
Mazatlan
We took a tour around the city. We also saw these crazy guys who would climb up this tower and dive head first into shallow water. They would stand there and wait for a set of waves to come in, then they would time it just right and they would dive! It was crazy!
We also went and hung out at a pool at a hotel there. It was fun. It was right on the beach so we went in the ocean there too. You could walk way out in the water.
Puerto Vallarta
We got to zip line across the jungle! It was amazing. We had a cute Mexican guide she was so funny. She kept telling the girls to scream like men and the men to scream like girls.
This was the first time the customs people had ever had anyone try to bring home a puffer fish, they were a little concerned. They confiscated it until the last day of the cruise, Brandon wanted to break in and rescue it but he refrained.
We told them Brandon and I were celebrating our anniversary so they brought us alcohol free champaign, I thought it was gross!
