aboard our ship

. I hope we can take another cruise sometime.

Bahamas

Well Ashlea, you made it to your 22nd state and the first time you visited a different country. It was a long process just to get to the cruise ship. First we went to Aunt Susan's. Then we flew to Dallas, Tx. We had a lay over there and we didn't get into Orlando, Florida until midnight where we spent the night at a hotel courtesy of Troy and Deidre. Then a shuttle bus to the ship, but we made it. While in the Bahamas you got your hair braided, did some shopping, swam, played drums, got sarong with many ways to tie it. learned how to fold towels into animal shapes. Ate your first lobster and even tried sushi.I won a trophy play bean bag toss. We all had a good time but once again it is good to be home.

MUD

when life gives you lemons you make lemonade. When life gives you floods what do you do? Make mud pies and have fun of course.

medals and trophies

We cleaned your room and you hammered in the nails to hang your medals. You had a chance to use your tool kit. What will we do in a few years with all the medals and trophies you are winning. I am sure we will figure something out.

Aunt Susan's quilt

Aunt Susan made this beautiful quilt for you. You will have it for many, many years with fond memories.

I will sing

I was so proud of you. You have a lovely singing voice. Good Job.
