Stampin' Up! Cruise 2010 - Barbados

Happy Saturday Friends,

I have been slacking at creating for the Utah Divas International Sketch Team.  Next week, I will be back - I promise :) To check out what my fellow team mates came up with click on this link - http://www.utahdivasinternational.com/

Barbados was our first port of call.  It was great to 'step out on to land'.  It was hot. 

We received a wonderful welcome by some great musicians.

We spent the day with our new found friends - Kristyne and her Mom, Joanne from Winnipeg, Canada. 

We started the day with a little 'shopping'!  There was an indoor shopping center and it wasn't air conditioned.  That was the miserable part.  The shops however, were air conditioned. Maybe their plot to get us spending money - do we really need an excuse to shop?  :)

My dear friends and co-workers: Kellie J, Kellie Sue and Selma.  I have to brag about these gals for a minute.  They worked so hard, along with Angie G who is not pictured here to make sure we Demonstrators had a fabulous time.  They spent countless hours in the Hospitality room handing out gifts and displaying swaps.  They are awesome and they made the cruise so wonderful for every Demonstrator.  Thank you girls xx

After our shopping we were taken on a tour by the wonderful Horace.  He shared a lot of wonderful information about the island and took us to various places including the homes of many stars.  For obvious reasons we could only look at the houses from the entrance.  They included, Gary Lineaker (England Football Player) Celine Dion, Cliff Richard, Joan Collins and Oliver Reed to name a few.

I don't remember who these houses belonged to.

This was the entrance of a beautiful gated "Posh" house community :)

We headed to the beach after some more sight seeing of the 'local town'. My toes are the white ones - to the left, Kristyne, then Mom then Joanne.  My

Dad would have loved the color choices.  (Red and White were the colors of the rugby team he played for)

Beautiful Ocean

End of a fun filled day!

We headed back to the ship.  This evening was our 'Stampin' Up! share night.  I will post pictures on Monday of some awesome creativity.

Next port of call - "St Lucia"

Stampin' Up! Cruise 2010 - Day at Sea

Monday, we spent the day at sea.  Mom was not feeling too well.  She had a rough night of sea sickness.  I went to General Session and left her to get some rest.  Brent Steele, pictured above showed us an awesome book he created using "My Digital Studio".  I am excited to create a book of all my pictures from the cruise using this fabulous software.

The most exciting part for me was when Shelli put on her "Minnie Mouse" ears and announced the next Incentive Trip will be to Disney World.  I was thrilled with this news and plan to work very hard this upcoming Stampin' Up! year so I can earn it for my family and I.

This piece of art was interesting.

"There's no place like home" - Check out the red shoes :)

Mom and I at the Captain's (Formal) Dinner.

Kathie and Tiffany.  I was so excited when Tiffany told me she was taking her Mom on the cruise.  We thought it would be a good idea to hang out so our Mom's could get to know each other and boy was that a good idea. We sat with Kathie and Tiffany each evening for dinner. I liked Kathie as soon as I met her and she was so good for my Mom.  I liked Tiffany as soon as I met her back in Hawaii too :)

I didn't know until we got on the ship that our other 'table buddies' was the Merriman family.  Robin is super sweet and equally is her husband Mark and their daughter, Emma.  Mark may not appreciate the 'sweet' comment so I will say he is good fun :) It made me homesick for Lance and our children :)

Mom and our Waiter for the week - Sylvester.

Totally spoiled :)

Stampin' Up! Cruise 2010 - Embarkation Day

Hello Friends,

I want to share some of my pictures with you from the fabulous cruise.  I took almost 1000 pictures.  I obviously won't be posting all those :) but I will post some from each day.

I was in awe at the size of the ship.  There were 3100 passengers aboard for the "Adventure of the Seas".

Mom and I just about ready to board the ship.

Here is our cabin

The beds were so comfortable and with the slight rocking of the ship, lulled us to sleep every night.

Looking forward to our vacation of a lifetime!

Stampin' Up! had a fabulous 'get together' planned.  We were able to socialize with our friends.  I love Stampin' Up!'s products, but the friendships I have made is the #1 thing I love about this fabulous company.
