~Mexico Cruise 2015~

Tommy and I had wanted to go on another cruise since we went on the last one and we had talked about going in February when in September, I think, my sister asked us if we wanted to go on a four day cruise with them in November! It was short notice but of course we wanted to go! So November 28th we drove down to SLC and stayed the night to get on the plane early the next morning.
While waiting to get on the plane we saw this huge basketball player! He was seriously 7 foot plus some! The kid that is standing in front of him was an average size guy!
And the kid behind him was also a basketball player so you know he was pretty tall.... not in comparison though! I should have asked to get a picture with him cuz I would have only been up to like his elbow!
And then when we got into LA we went from one extreme to the next and saw the shortest people we've ever seen! Now I usually wouldn't ask to get a picture with a little person cuz that would be rude... but these people are famous! They are on 2 tv shows- Little Women LA and Tara's Little Family :) (Don't mind my totally cheeser face!)
We got on a bus and rode from LAX to the cruise port and got ready to board the ship!

We sailed the first night and got into Catalina Island the next day. We just walked around and shopped in Catalina.

Catalina from our port hole
Not sure what the steps going down into the ocean were for haha
We sailed that night again and were in Ensenada the next day! Tommy went deep sea fishing and I just went shopping!
Welcome to Mehico!
Me and Case in our homeland!
The boys that went fishing
This fish caught a seal! A seal was chasing and catching this fish as they were reeling it in! As you can see how beat up it is!
Tommy got me long stem roses from guys selling them on the street of Ensenada! I loved them and got an awesome Mexican vase to go with them!
Back on the boat we got and home we sailed!
Our cabin this time was up in the front of the ship so we got port holes to look out of, but there were not worth all the noise from the anchor going down in the mornings!!
Our second towel animal was a dinosaur, I think... Tommy ruined our first animal before I could get a picture of it!
Our last animal was a bat...? haha
Our flight home was later in the evening so we got to see the sun set from the plane.. it was pretty cool!
And our kittens sure were glad we were home so they had someone to sleep with!
We're already ready for the next cruise!!

Halloween Twenty-Fifteen

Halloween's always a big holiday in our family, we have a lot of fun dressing up and eating a fun dinner!

This year Tommy and I dressed up as minions...
In previous years we were Boise State fans, Phil and Miss Kay off Duck Dynasty, and Sheldon and Amy off The Big Bang Theory.

Ted and Janice were vampires

Brad and Janel were Super man and a pumpkin 
 And our kittens were a pumpkin and a queen ;)
He wouldn't hold still for a picture so we had to get separate ones
He wasn't impressed

 And course we had to get the dogs in there too
Though with out their costumes, Chico was a caterpillar
and Pep was a ladybug
 Yes we are weird like that..

We had a great dinner of elk sloppy joes, little smokies, hotdog mummies, and lots of other munchies!
 And enjoyed the night passing out candy and spending quality time with each other playing games!
