Bahamas Cruise

Okay so these are just a few pictures we took. The ones in the water are from a private little beach in Nassau. It was very romantic. The water was very pretty and warm. There was a beautiful wedding ceremony on this tiny little private beach we hung out on before going on a boat to snorkel. The other picture is of our cruise ship. It was very large. It was our first cruise and it was amazing. Since Chez's company paid for us, we didn't even have to pay gratuities to our room attendant or waiters. It was all taken care of by Wyndham. The service on the cruise was perfect. Everyone was very hospitable. The food was good during breakfast and dinner. There are many places to eat on the cruise that are all free like Johnny Rockets, Pizza, Buffets, and a very delicious dinner at a restaurant called the Mirage. The shows were fun, the atmosphere was amazing and the other cruisers were very friendly. Our room was very small but the bed was extremely comfortable and we had a large window behind our bed with a view of the ocean. At first the size of our room was a dissappointment, but we were only in it for three reasons. SSS=sleep, shower, and sex ;) Ha ha. Nassau was our first stop and it was so gorgeous. We went snorkeling, laid on the beach, then toured around the Atlantis resort. It is supposed to be one of the most beautiful resosrts in the world and we could see why. We have never seen anything like it. The next day we went to Cococay which is a private island that cruise ships go to. It was so tropical. Palm trees everywhere, white sand beach, turquois water, colorful fish....It was very nice. We saw a sunken ship, plane, and sting rays when we went snorkeling there. Anyway, that is about it. We had a blast and will definitely consider going on another cruise. Grandma and Grandpa also had a lot of fun with Kingston and they said he was a gem. That was nice to hear.

My little bundle of Joy

So I happened to stumble across this picture of Kingston. He was about 11 months old and we had just left the mall. Half way home, I look in my mirror to see Kingston's happy smiley face and I thought, Oh my gosh!!! How did you get out of your seat?? He had stood himself up on his baby car seat and peeped his head over my shoulder. I quickly pulled over to figure out what had happened. First, of course, I had to take a picture because it was kind of cute. Then when I went back there, I realized I had forgot to buckle him up. I felt so horrible but relieved that he was okay. Now, I keep this picture as the main picture in my cell phone. Every time I open it, I see him. It is my favorite picture of him. You may be wondering what the other picture of a pool and palm trees has anything to do with the picture of Kingston. Well, it is a picture of the resort Chez and I stayed at in Vegas a month ago. Looking at this picture of Kingston, helped me feel better whenever I missed him. In two days we leave for the Bahamas without him again, and I am sort of sad to leave him again so soon. Although we will have a lot of fun while we are gone, I will still miss my baby and looking at this picture of him, will make me feel better whenever I miss him.

Life is a Trip!

Chez and I just got back from Vegas last Friday. It was soooo fun. It was the first time we were alone since before Kingston was born. My kind and loving parents, drove all the way from Seattle, to watch Kingston for the week. While in Vegas, the weather was fantastic. We sat by the pool every afternoon then just did whatever the heck we wanted the rest of the time. It was such a free feeling. We did miss Kingston very much by the end of our trip and the reunion was the perfect end to a perfect week. The day before we left to Vegas, Chez shocked me with some very exciting news. Since he is such a hard working salesman, he won us an all expense paid vacation to the Bahamas. It's a cruise that leaves from Port Canaveral and goes to Nassau, Bahamas to Cococay and back to Port Canaveral. We are staying in an oceanside suite. It is going to be so fun. This time, Chez's parents will be watching Kingston. We are so excited and we feel very blessed to be able to travel so much.

Still Learning

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still trying to figure out how this blog thing works. If I send you a confusing message, I am sorry! ;) I will get the hang of it soon.

Kingston's First Birthday

Kingston will be turning 1 on the 16th and we had no idea what to get him. He has so many toys already, so Chez and I decided to take him to Toys R Us to check it out. After no luck at all, on the way out of the store, we walked by this Winnie the Pooh light up piano and Kingston loved it ! Everytime I would try to walk away, he would cry and reach for the toy. So that was that. We found the perfect birthday present for him. I couldn't figure out a good theme for his birthday, but after our trip to Toys R Us, nothing seemed more perfect than a Winnie the Pooh birthday. Time sure flies. I remember the day he was born like it was just yesterday!

The story of us

Chez and I met four and a half years ago while I was working as a hostess at Chili's. He used to come in as a customer and "try" to hook me up with his friends. He was always the annoying guy who came into Chili's to bug me. About a year after we met, my friend Keri took me to a party which happened to be at Chez's house. I thought, oh great, it's him! However, as the night progressed, I got to know him. He turned out to be different than the guy I knew who bugged me at work. He was very funny and a true gentleman. From then on, we hung out almost every day, and a friendship grew into what is now love and a wonderful marriage. We were married on March 16th, 2006 in Logan, Utah. We now have a cat, dog, and a 10 month old son named Kingston Chesley Jones. Life is getting sweeter and sweeter everyday.
