5 boys and a sleepover...

Denver, Matthew, Jack, Andres & Carson

As you all know Jack was gone on his actual birthday so I didn't get to have a party for him like we usually do. What I decided would work best because everyones schedules were so crazy was a sleepover. So...I took it on and they did really well. This is a great group of boys and they have been friends for years. Even through different schools, classes, sports, they have stayed close. They are a cute group to watch. Although after you watch the videos I think you'll agree that sleepovers were meant for the tamer crowd...they were meant for the girls. lol :)

Here's before bed after all the sugar...

Disney Cruise Videos

So here are a few videos like I promised. Linking them to the actual blog was not working. I think maybe the files were too big so I put them on YouTube instead. So here are the links. Hope you like them.

This first one is of the boys at the end of our snorkeling adventure in Castaway Cay. I am holding all 3 masks and snorkels in my hands and trying to get away from these little monkeys...

October 30, 2010 - Castaway Cay, Bahamas - Disney Wonder Cruise

Welcome to Castaway Cay! We LOVED this island! We had such a great day!

Mom & Jack snorkeling

Jack snorkeling

Drew wore the mask for about 10 minutes and then it broke. We were not pleased!

Drew kept trying to jump on me. Funny thing is I was the one with no life jacket.

Grandma snorkeling

One of the views of the beach

I tried SO hard to get some pictures of the boys. Drew was having NO PART of it!!

Surprise!! Here was my attempt at our 2010 Christmas card...As you can see it is not a keeper. Drew said he could not see in the sun! Oh well...

Captain Hook was waiting to "capture" the passengers as they got back on the ship.

The boys hit the showers before heading back to the ship

October 29, 2010 - Parasailing with Jack - Disney Wonder Cruise

Jack and I went parasailing for his 7th birthday. He was a little nervous at first but once we got in the air he didn't seem all that impressed. lol He said he could see TONS of stingrays in the water below and was more concerned about landing on them. We had a great time. I took a short video as well. Enjoy! :) Jack & Mommy very high in the air

Getting ready...look at that nervous smile.

There we are...

Drew was cheering us on from the boat with Grandma.

October 29, 2010 - Happy 7th Birthday Jack!

Happy 7th Birthday Jack! Welcome to Nassau! What a fun day we had. Beach, sun, parasailing, pool, pirate party, Toy Story show. Wow, I don't remember my 7th birthday or any birthday being like that. Hope you had great day, Jack! I love you!

One of my favorites after we got off the boat in Nassau

Jack's cake after the dining staff sang him Happy Birthday at Dinner.

October 28, 2010 - Disney Wonder Cruise

I took the boys on the Disney Wonder cruise to the Bahamas for Jack's 7th Birthday! We had a great time! Andrew has already asked what we are doing for his birthday and I told him we would do something fantastic when he turned 7! I guess I have a little time! :) So, we headed to Florida Wednesday night after we picked my Mom up from the airport. The boys were super excited that Grandma was coming since they don't get to see her too often. The cruise left Port Canaveral on Thursday and came back on Sunday. We drove home and got back at 5pm. Just in time for trick or treating so needless to say it was a busy, busy weekend. I split up the posts by days. Hope you enjoy it! I have been trying to attach video but I'm having a hard time. That may come later. Enjoy! :) Disney Wonder
