Cruise Vacation Day 7 ~ At Sea...

Our last day was spent busy at sea...on a ship this size, at sea is really just as fun because there is so much to do.  Almost need several days at sea so you have time to do everything.


After breakfast, Anna Lauren and Matt played a few games in the arcade...


Anna Lauren wanted to go to the kids club this morning because they were doing a talent show...you know the pageant girl is all about some "talent"...


They painted their faces for the talent show...


Sitting with all the other kids watching other talents...of course, she LOVED this!


The older kids did their own talents...but...the 3 to 5 year olds did a dance together.  I would love to know what she is telling this little boy beside her...too funny!





Introducing herself and telling everyone where she is from...she was most excited about talking on REAL microphone...

So proud of her medal...everyone that performed got a medal...

After the talent show, we headed straight for the pool...by now, the pool had warmed up and you could actually swim without freezing to death.


Some older girls in the pool convinced her she was going to be a cheerleader...of course, she loved hearing that and had to show off her stunts...




Oh the ice cream...you can get it whenever you want...


Ice skating once again...this time, they convinced Mommy to skate.  And yes, she has on pajamas.  When packing, I didn't realize you would have to have pants to ice skate...so...we did our best.  But...the workers are like, it doesn't matter...just cover your legs...pajamas, tights, etc.  Of course, Anna Lauren heard pajamas so she was convinced to wear her pajamas.


I stayed close to the wall at all times...




One of many, many slices of pizza ate all week...


These two girls stopped at our dinner table and asked if they could take a picture with Anna Lauren because she is so pretty.  She LOVES "big" girls so she happily smiled!  We are very blessed to have a beautiful child...but...if I heard it once, I heard it two million times on this trip...poor Anna Lauren would say, Mommy I'm tired of saying thank you.  Why is everyone saying I'm pretty?  Formal nights were the worst...everyone would stop her and tell her she was so pretty, and on and on.  I will say she was sweet for most part...we were proud and are so blessed to have her as our daughter.  What a wonderful week we had with her...and oh the memories we will always have of this trip!
