    A Trash Truck Party for Hudson’s 4th Birthday

    Because that is now a thing. Several months before his birthday (much too early, in fact), Hudson announced out of the blue that he was going to have “a trash truck party at the dump, and everyone in our whole entire city is invited!” My initial reaction was, “Umm… No.” But after some coaxing from my husband, and a few Pinterest searches, I decided to give it a go. Turns out it’s easier to throw a trashy party than I thought! Okay, stop right here. Before I go…

Another sea day today. We jam packed everything we Another sea day today. We jam packed everything we could into today and already have big plans for our sea day tomorrow. ⁣
⁣
The sad topic you overheard everywhere on the ship today was, “We only have 2 more days.” ⁣
⁣
We’ve really settled into this cruise ship life and like everyone else, I’m sad to think it’s almost time to go home. ⁣

And then it turned out to be our favorite port of all. ⁣

We just went to the beach. That was it. But oh my goodness it was incredible! ⁣Now I want to live there.

Today was a day of new things, but it really just Today was a day of new things, but it really just turned out to be a tease. Somehow we managed to visit Grand Cayman without ever setting foot on a beach (I know, it’s a long story). 

I’ve said before that cruising is kinda weird because you don’t get to spend much time in one place. You just get a taste of it and then have to get back on the ship. 

But I think I’ve decided that is the beauty of it. You get to sample a few places, then decide which you need more of later on. Plus you don’t have to repack over and over. 

Cayman Islands, you haven’t seen the last of me! 

And maybe I’ll even bring my family.

The first time we came here (on our first cruise e The first time we came here (on our first cruise ever) was the first time I’d ever seen water this blue. Today, though I’ve seen plenty of blue waters since, I was struck with it again. It is a color you can’t describe. A hue photographs can’t capture. Cozumel waters are a shade of blue all their own. ⁣
⁣
We spent our day, befittingly, in the water at Playa Mía Beach Park. Any place with water slides and a splash pad ON the beach is a winner in our book. Though I think the aqua-cycles were our favorite because they’re just so darn funny. ⁣
⁣
We returned to the ship near dinner time, where my children wanted nothing to do with the conversation at our table, but actually led the conversation at the table next. I assume we will have the dining room to ourselves tomorrow night. ⁣
⁣
One huge perk of cruising is the kids club, where babysitting is included and the kids would rather be there than hang out with you anyway. So tonight we checked them in and caught a show. We didn’t have to tell anyone to sit still or be quiet. Not even once. ⁣
⁣
On the way back to the room we got distracted by cupcakes and ice cream, and then found ourselves stuck in the disco dance party on the promenade. In case you’ve ever wondered, sugar and The Village People are exactly the way to calm your children before bed. 😳⁣
⁣
We’ve only spent 2 full days on this ship, but with everything we’ve done it feels like we’ve already been here a week. We’re crispy, exhausted, and a little bit dehydrated. Exactly the way a vacation should be. ⁣

Life is what you make it.⁣ ⁣ I said this many Life is what you make it.⁣
⁣
I said this many times today which annoyed my husband to no end, but I said it just as much for my own benefit as I did in response to his sour expressions. Luckily I just couldn’t see my own face. 😏⁣
⁣
We had several moments of “_____ is different than I expected” today. There’s like a million people on this ship and, well… things are different than we expected. ⁣
⁣
Also, we brought our children. So there’s that. ⁣
⁣
We fully recognize how lucky we are that this trip is even possible. We have the means and the time and the health to be able to do this without thinking twice. And the all the things that are different than we expected, are really not that big of a deal. We are determined to have fun regardless.
⁣
So for every melted ice cream there’s an excuse to have another. For every closed pool there is a reason to go find something new. For every hyperactive child at dinner, there is the kids’ club and some quiet adult time. ⁣
⁣
For every person who has decided to enjoy their vacation, there is enjoyment. And vice versa.⁣
⁣
Life, and vacations, are what you make of them. ⁣
