Dec. 16th- Our vacation begins

In December 2010 it was decided that Jeremy's entire family would embark on a Holiday trip together. We all agreed upon a Holiday Cruise, Dec. 17-24th on the Holland America Eurodam. 19 of us would be on the ship! 10 adults, and 9 kids! After an entire year of planning, the vacation had finally arrived.

Dec. 16- We all flew to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida(except Ash & Dave who were coming from Orlando after spending the week at Disney World).
We landed at 11:30am. Jeremy got the rental van, and we checked into our hotel around 2pm. Jeremy went back to the airport at 4:30pm to pick up his mom, dad, Ang, and Al. The girls were hiding in Grandma and Grandpa's room and surprised them all. Then at 6:30, he went back to the airport to pick up Jeff, Ash, Blakelee and Taylor. We met them at the elevators and it was a fun reunion of hugs for everyone! We had a fun evening at the hotel together. We got pizza and the cousins had fun playing together.

Taylor and Mya loved being spun around in the chair. I think they were feeling a little sick in this picture. HA! They don't look too happy, but trust me, they loved it.

We were all very excited to get on the Cruise Ship the next day!
