ten year annivesary trip, part 2

our first full day on our cruise was a day at sea.
we were really looking forward to these days to just relax.

after breakfast we gathered our books and headed for the pool.

we had a great morning of just laying around and reading our Ted Dekker books we brought along.
it was such a departure from our normal lives and we truly appreciated it.

we kept saying that it was like our honeymoon, but better.
we're more in love than ever plus after 10 years of marriage, we've learned a thing or two about each other.
also, we really appreciate the time to relax and do nothing because we never have that kind of freedom in our daily life.
aj kept commenting throughout the trip about how relaxed i was.
i said, of course i am, i have zero stress!
it was great!! :)

aj went on the slide and i got in the pool a bit until it was lunch time.
another favorite thing on the trip was that we took a nap every afternoon.
it was awesome.

that evening was the "elegant wear" dinner.
it was fun to get to dress up in my $10 dress from plato's closet.

that's in the entryway of our room.

and here are some very blingy pictures from the evening...the ship was one big boat o' bling.

we went to the shows after dinner that night...i think it was a comedy show and a vegas style show.
i could have done without the vegas style show, but it was still fun to be out past 10 at night with my man. :)
every evening for the show, aj would go get us some coffee to take in with us so we could stay awake for the show.
yes, we are that old and boring.

i also loved the nightly turndown service.
each night our towel was folded into some fun creature, there were mints, & a schedule for the next days' events.

we saved the mints and took pictures of the towels each evening for the boys.



okay....meet me back here tomorrow for part 3! :) Pin It
