OK OK here it is!!! THE VIDEO!!!! (well, most of it anyway)

I have to tell you that Mark put this whole thing together for me, he ROCKS!!! If anyone is even remotely interested in coming to the Champs weekend in TN, hopefully this will kinda show you what a blast we're gonna have!!!!This cuts off unfortunatly before the end, hopefully I'll figure out how to get the end on there soon. I realize theres a lot of shots of me in there, but we weren't really planning on doing this project with it so ignore me. Looks like all of the booty shots he got of me were on the end part that didn't make it on here so WHEW!!

Another cruise update break.....

I just wanted to report in on how everything else was going. I have really struggled getting back into the swing of life over here. My challenge is going well, though. It finally happened, I got sick. My number was up, for sure, I havent' had so much as a cold in over a year, partly due to the healthy lifestyle, partly due to regular chiro visits. I think I got a stomach thing once last year for 24 hurs, thats it. Pretty good. Unfortunatley this week my luck ran out, and I got PMS, a cold, and add that to coming home to my real life and starting a new challenge(ohhhh, my aching BODY) with all the soda, fat, and sugar withdrawls its been a little rough. PMS week is'nt the ideal week to detox, but on the other hand, just rip it off quick ike a band-aid, right?? Miraculously, I have stuck to my diet perfectly, exept for a couple missed meals due to being asleep. It laso helps that I cna't really taste of smell. I missed my workout yesterday, my head was pounding so bad I could hardly see, but I ate clean. Today I just decided I have to suck it up so I took some Dayquil, I may have to add ibuprophen to that because so far my head is still pounding but I have to get to the gym. I'm gonna walk at a high incline for cardio abd then do LB. Then I HAVE GOT to get unpacked and get this house put back together. Its driving me bonkers. Im actually contemplating a trip to the laundromat, I betcha I have 10+ loads of clothe to wash, I could get it all done in 2 hours and just be done with it. Hmmm, sounds tempting. I also need to get a quote from Merry Maids....(HAHA *snort*)

Cruise-Day 3

I didn't get much sleep the night before, We had to be up and get to breakfast before it closed at 11...:P We hooked up with Jen and Dave and Caroline and her hubby at breakfast, and got one of their walkie-talkies. We found them in Nassau and walked around shopping for souvenier stuff. it was all pretty much touristy crap, and mosto fo the good stuff like shark jaws and shell stuff was too fragile. There was Atlantis to go to, or another resort called Breezes, but it cost like 30 bucks apiece to even jsut go in and sit by their pool, we figured we could do that on our ship anyway, so we had the dollar bus take us over to this street called "Fish Fry".

It came recommended by locals, which is what we wanted, the "real" bahamas stuff. It was pretty good, Mark got Deep fried lobster, I got the grilled Conch, which is a locally caught shellfish. It was a little rubbery,but not bad. I ate it all, anyway so it must have been ok. The company we had was definetly the best part! Then we took the dollar bus back to the shopping area. We ended up shopping in this place called the "Straw market", you know the place all these ports have with the t-shirts, knock-off designer bags, stuff that looks all island-y but really comes from a factory somwhere. We ended up getting the little boys these carved shell turtles on a string, spiderman t-shirts, I got Sadie a couple of bracelets, Cooper got a bamboo whistle thing, and Cade a pirate skull piggy bank. Woo hoo. Then we went back ot he room to shower, change and eat dinner at the buffet(steak tenderloin....YUM) and head out to Senor Frogs.

Mark held the floor in place at the VIP section while I went out and danced. It was fun. I know Jim Shelton has some incriminating video somewhere, I'm a little scared for that to surface!

We had to break up the party at 11:30 and head back to the ship, so we went out to the pool and there was a huge pool party with a barbecue buffet. There were a coupke of pinapple towers(5 feet tall)stuck with hundreds of skewers of fresh fruit, it was gorgeous! Plus of course ribs and chicken and who knows wat else, I didn't make it all the way around. I think there was a taco bar too. I was able to talk to Porter Freeman for a minute, that was cool. It did start to rain pretty hard just as we were leaving port, but that only lasted a couple minutes, because we sailed away from it.

We goofed around kissing our biceps and showing our abs(why I thought that was a good idea after the way I'd been eating and sucking down the Coke, is beyond me)Then went up to the club to shake our Shakiras a litte more. Mark did come with this time, there was only a little while till the club closed down again. Side note was that the DJ was pretty sucky. He had no clue what we were requesting. He played the same songs both nights, which ironically were also some of the same ones that the DJ at Senor Frogs played. I seriously heard the Madonna mix 3 times. I like to Vogue and all, the first ti e its fun, the second time its funny, the third time its annoying. Well, its actually annoying the first time, but anyway.

We closed down the club, then went to bed.
