Disney Cruise


When I was diagnosed with ALS the nurse at the ALS clinic suggested that if we wanted to do any traveling we should do it sooner rather than later. Rich wondered if I wanted to go to the Holy Land, a dream of his, but not mine. He suggested Rome, which has been a dream of mine. But then he suggested that we take the whole family on a Disney cruise and that felt perfect. I was thinking that we would take everyone on a Disney cruise for our fortieth anniversary, so we just did it 5 years early.

It was a great vacation making memories together. And now comes the picture overload:

Andrew in the port hole

Look at those blues! I love it!

We ate at a little restaurant in Cabo San Lucas called "the office," it was covered with umbrellas and we had our feet in the sand at the same time.

Connor's food in a ship box

Sophie's food

The food was so yummy under the blue umbrellas!


I love this picture of Abby and Papa holding hands!

Cabo San Lucas and look at those clouds!

We ate guacamole from the avocados in this tree, in the rainforest of Puerto Vallarta

Rich sure looks a little too happy with his arm around Mickey. It makes one wonder what he's up to. The comment "that's what she said", keeps dancing around in my head. You guys look like you had a wonderful time despite not taking me.

I loved your photos. I thought Cabo was just gorgeous with all the blue water and white clouds. I loved all the meals together and watching what a great time the little ones had on the ship with each other and the characters.

What a blessing to baptize in the ocean and confirm Connor on the ship. Laura had everything planned so well. She is as organized as her mother. It will be nice to have them closer.
