On December 10th, Brad, Isaac and I headed to Edmonton Airport to catch a 1am flight to Toronto, and onto Miami for a cruise with all my side of the family. The boys did really well with all the travelling. They enjoyed watching the planes, and burning energy by chasing each other around the airport. Isaac fell asleep on take off for every flight, and would sleep for the duration of the flight. That helped a lot.

Our Cruise, the Norwegian Pearl. Overall it was a great cruise, and great time with my family. Although this time I was more sick as well as others, and that put a bummer on the trip a few times. But we had a lot of great times and lot of relaxing on the beach.
Here we are leaving Miami.
Right away, Brad and Isaac were swimming in the pool, which had a big slide....Isaac loved it!
Our favorite beach was "Megan's Beach" in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. USA. It was a great day, beautiful water and a crazy taxi ride.... oh and can't forget about the shopping!!
It was nice every night to get cleaned up and go for a great dinner from one of the many restaurants.
Brad was able to catch some beautiful sunset and sunrise pictures.
Twice, the cruise ship had to call the coast guard for medical evacuation. Who knows what the emergency's were for, but it was cool to see the helicopter circle the ship for a while before picking up the passenger and taking them wherever. Let's hope they had travel insurance, because my mom said it could cost over 200,000. for a medical evacution by the coast guard.
This was a "tender" that we had to take to the last port. Norwegian's own private island in the Bahamas. It was a rainy day, which made for some rough waters, but thankfully no one got too sick.

The week went by pretty fast, but we were happy to be going home to Vernon, for another week of holidays and Christmas in Vernon.
Isaac and Liam got along really well for the most part. I hope they'll get closer, and play better as they get older.
Reading a book with Uncle Jason.

The boys loved their new farms from Grandma Weglo in Vancouver. (I'll be sure to send her some pictures, Kathryn.)
Again, the boys having a great time on Christmas Eve.
On Christmas Day we left the house for some fresh air and went to feed the ducks. It was a lot of fun.
On Boxing Day we got together with my Mom's family, and were able to get a four generations picture.
Well, there you have it, over 600 pictures taken, summarized into one blog. Hope you all had a great Christmas and a great start to your New Year. We are super excited for what 2010 has to bring!
Looked bigger in person to me.
Isaac was shy for the pictures, but was really excited.
In awe.....
Note the spelling mistake....Toronto Maple LEAES....1962-63
One day Isaac......when you're much older.....you might just hoist that thing....
Brad was in his glory...it was a great day!
