Caribbean Cruise!

Back in May Tyler and I took a 7 day Caribbean Cruise. It was absolutely perfect and we had such an amazing time. We love cruises, and our Caribbean Cruise we took for our honeymoon had to be repeated! As much as I love my boys a week with just Tyler really was amazing. As always the boys were super spoiled with aunts/uncles/grandparents! 

Day 1 was a night in Galveston Texas. Not our favorite place but experiencing another state really makes you appreciate Utah! 
Day 2. We boarded the ship and loved our room that looked over the promenade. This day was a ship day and we made sure to enjoy everything it had to offer. What's one of my favorite things about cruising? Tyler and I dance, yep we dance. Every night we would go to the club/bar and have a few drinks and we would just dance. We made tons of friends doing this and had so much fun. I love that my husband isn't afraid to have fun and let loose. Seriously back home the chances to dance are slim and I loved doing this every night with my man! 
Day 3 was another day at sea. We really spent most of the day in the sun, and stuffing our faces. That night was a formal night and I have to say we clean up pretty nice. Cruise ship food is amazing, we both gained some weight from this trip. At dinner you can either sit alone and have dinner at random times like 5p.m or 9pm. We decided to get out of our comfort zone and have dinner with strangers. Every dinner we met some pretty cool people and had some sweet talks. A few of our friends were from Trinidad, how often do you get to sit and talk from people from there? 
Day 4 was a day in Costa Maya. This place had a really cool port but the town was so small and poor. We took a 45 minute bus ride to our excursion riding little motor boats and snorkeling. 
This was a really sweet excursion and the snorkeling was great!
Day 4 was a day in Honduras! Oh this place was amazing, I would love to go back! We decided to zip line and it was crazy! I was super worried about spiders but once you get hundreds of feet in the air to jump off you forget about spiders. I love our vacations and how they challenge me to try new things. It was an experience I'll never forget!
This was our dessert selection one day, again major weight gain. 
This boat had an ice skating rink, pretty sweet!
Day 5 was Cozumel. This was our second time in Cozumel and it was much better than last. We did a beach day. We played on one of those inflatable obstacles courses for hours. We got massages on the beach. It was perfect!
Tyler was a pro at this and I'm still bummed I didn't try it. Everyone watched as you would do it and most girls lost their tops and bottoms. I guess I just wasn't in the mood for a striptease. 
The last day was a day at sea and we spent it soaking up the sun. 
I love vacationing with Tyler we always have the best time!
