Christmas Cruisin' in the Carribean

Hello!  From the Royal Carribean Mariner of the Seas!
This is us all looking up at a mirror on the ceiling of the ship hallway

 I made sure to call Taylor one last time before I had to turn off my phone for 7 days

But he wasn't forgotten! I made sure to take lots of pictures with invisible Taylor throughout the week.  Taylor this is for you:
Here's Taylor and I at the Hilton in Galveston, Tx.  Enjoying the warm poolside air.
Taylor and I on the ship. Neither of us got sea sick.... yet
Taylor and I on the beach in Galveston, TX....Good thing you didn't get sunburned, Tay, because you forgot to wear sunscreen
Taylor loves Christmas so he really loved this huge Christmas tree on the ship
Sunset picture out at sea with Taylor!
Tay and I are Honduras beach bums
Titanic pose with Taylor!  You make me feel like I'm king of the world!

Checking out the Belize Altun Ha ruins with Tay....That was quite the climb up that pyramid, remember?
Mexican Tulum ruins with Taylor
Taylor knelt down in this picture with his hands flung out (he was really excited about this beach front ruin property) So my hand is on his shoulder as he's kneeling....What a goofball
More Tulum ruins with Taylor!
The key chain says Taylor!
Eating lunch on the ship with Tay....he ate a lot of protein
Taylor thought this was a great sunset picture
This pose was a silly thing I did with my family in Hawaii two years before for Christmas when my parents and my sister and her husband would all be holding hands walking down the beach and I had nobody.
2010 December in Hawaii....hahahah
I must say, Taylor is one lucky guy to have gone to so many places!

Christmas!

I love Christmas because everyone is so nice to each other and remembers Christ!  Best time ever!  Here's a great link about Christmas!

I was so excited when I got home from the cruise on the 23rd and had to work Christmas Eve, I made sure to wear festive colors at work!

And my blessed boyfriend made me lunch and breakfast Christmas Even since I got home late.

The excitement of Christmas lasted until dinner when I stopped off at McDonalds to get oatmeal that was red and green!

On Christmas, Taylor gave me black pearl earrings and a prayer box necklace



And we both got matching slippers!

You may have noticed Taylor's Superman socks.  He spent the day like this:
Superman blanket, Superman socks (pants rolled up), Clark Kent glasses

We also got to go to Les Mes!
Standing in line, Taylor, Tim, Vanella (she didn't know I was taking a picture of her)
About to watch!

Before the Cruisin'

Before leaving for my flight down South, I had to say goodbye to my lover-boy.  And he even made me brunch before I left!

And gave me his chapstick to put on everyday so it was like he was kissing me each time....Yeah, I definitely put it on each day.

And the funny thing is, we both wrote each other notes for each day I was gone without either of us knowing the other was doing the same thing!  And PS, his notes he made me are on the right and much more artistic looking.  Mine (left) look like a 5 year old made them.

I finally showed up in Texas after mostly sleeping through the first flight and wanting to sleep through the second flight, but unable to since the man I was sitting next to wanted to chat the whole time.  But that's okay, I'm just still sleep deprived.
 Enjoying the warm weather!

The weather is so warm Santa wears shorts!  And gives me starfish since I've been such a good girl

This is my Dad who took the notes Taylor wrote to me and read them to everyone in the car (Seth, Dad, Mom, Carlie, Me)  Haha

Me, Mom, Carlie all piled in the back with a suitcase on our laps to get where we needed to go!

We stopped off at NASA and looked around the museum

Memories are golden/yellow

Which do I prefer?

Walks together in the snow
 Or walks alone in the snow after work

Hmmm....

We brought back some memories Sunday night when Taylor played French horn in an orchestra put together by our church

We still even talked the whole time even though I was in the audience




Remember these?
Ignoring Taylor in Pep Band
 Finally....Taylor stopped talking for a moment...
Prom 2008.  Yellow flower!
Eating lunch after swimming in the ocean where Taylor saved my life!  Those undercurrent pull you!  Who knew  5 years later they'd pull me back to Taylor
Taylor making fun of me taking flamingo pictures
And Taylor redeems himself
Shark teeth.  What a nice smile!
Look at the killer whales do tricks!  Or look at a bunch of pictures we take of ourselves in the back of the auditorium more likely
Rawr, Taylor always wanted to be a BYU cougar
This is when I taught Taylor the Edward stare for his benefit with the ladies....5 years later it still works on me


And for being such a good girlfriend, Taylor gave me this after the concert.  Awww!
