This morning was glorious because we got to sleep in! We slept to the rocking of the boat, in a cool dark room and I am telling you, it was heavenly! Even the boys slept in, and by sleeping in I mean sleeping until 8:30am, don't get too crazy now!
We woke up, had a late breakfast, and then headed back to our room to lounge around and casually get ready for our day of doing nothing! I went out on our balcony and read for a bit, and then the boys decided to join me so I started snapping pictures of course...
Cruises are so great for decompressing and relaxing. I am dead serious. I was always kinda "meh" about the idea of a cruise, but I think we are hooked. It is particularly nice for Todd who hardly ever gets to really put away work and his phone and just lay low and spend good quality time together while relaxing. Todd even went for a massage today, which was very out of the ordinary for him, but he really enjoyed it.
Ahhhhhh...peaceful!
The big boys went to the kids club and we booked a spot for Tate to have a few hours in the little kids nursery/club so that Todd and I could have some alone time. We went to the adults only pool and relaxed, drank virgin pina coladas and daiquiris, swam a bit, and just enjoyed feeling totally spoiled. It was wonderful!
We picked up the boys and headed back to our cabin to get ready for our last night of dinner and entertainment aboard.
One of the best parts of Disney dining I am telling ya...cutting the kids food! Aghhh! I love it!
Thatcher and the table mate we had all week long, Catcher. Yep. Thatcher and Catcher. Crazy.
After dinner we headed to the big Walt Disney Theater to see "Dreams" which is their BIG show for the week. It did not disappoint. It is so chock full of Disney Magic, tugging at your heart strings with bubbles coming down from the ceiling, and streamers and enough Disney music to take you over the edge. I am pretty sure I cried at the end and Todd and I turned to each other and started planning our next Disney cruise. Dang you Disney!
We headed out to the lobby to get some last pictures with some of the characters.
Last family group shot onboard with our matching shirts...yep, Disney freak. I am owning it.
We came around the corner to see Minnie and had her all to ourselves for a bit! Even Thatcher and Tagg loved it!
Tate was in HEAVEN and Minnie was very cute with him, she kept giving him kisses.
Tate couldn't stop staring!
We got a picture with Natalie our cruise director, that happened to also be the cruise director on our last Disney Cruise out of Galveston!
The boys finally got to see Stitch, who is their FAVORITE.
Stitch was very funny with them and kept playing with them that he was eating their glow sticks.
It will be a sad day when they won't light up like this when they see the characters!
It was a wonderful day!! This whole trip has been a dream, and SO full of amazing magical family memories! Now we are off to bed for one last time, and then we are up bright and early to head home. Add a comment »
