We decided to take a trip with our great friends the Buttles -no kids! It was a great idea. I was very anxious though to leave the kids. We had aunt Heather come out to stay with with Nathan, AJ & Tessa. With Heather briefed, we headed to the airport, ready for vacation! (Feb. 28)
Arriving in Houston
After we arrived in Houston, we found that Spirit Airlines lost one of our suitcases (We had ONE flight). So Sunday morning we had to go shopping to try to replace some of the items we had packed in their. After After that, we found out that our cruise boarding time was delayed so we found a YSA branch to attend in the greater Houston area. Then we drove to the port of Houston. We got there and it was pretty foggy, but we didn't care, we were on vacation!
This is going to be great!
Because of the heavy fog, we were unable to leave port on Sunday, so we stayed the night- in port and on the ship.

My way awesome friend Katie!
Playing trivia, we did a lot of that on the ship but never won.
Monday morning fog
Finally on our way!
We ate tons of great food the whole trip!
Great company!

Tendering into Belize City
We went zip lining and cave tubing in the jungles of Belize. It was SO much fun, my favorite part of the trip.
After our first zip the "chicken run".

On our way back to the dock, our driver stopped and picked up some oranges along the roadside. Then he told us to put some salt, pepper and spice seasoning on them. I think I prefer regular oranges.

Goodbye trip. I can't wait to do it again in two years. It was such a great time.
The only good thing about vacation ending, was coming home and seeing my babies! Heather took great care of them and had a lot of fun too. Thank you so much Heather! We were able to have a great time and we knew that the kids were alright. (Mar. 08)
