We just got back from a fantastic 8 day vacation down in Las Vegas with my parents to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary and mom’s 60th Birthday! Eeeeek I might be in trouble for mentioning her age but I think she looks rockin at 60 ![]()
I think it’s cool that after 40 years my parents are still so in love. You guys are so amazing, what an example of what a marriage should be. Not many people stay together anymore but I believe in happy marriages and I guess that’s why I love weddings so much! I am looking forward to celebrating your 50th in Hawaii
Here are just a few of our pic’s..I have to much editing right now to do anymore holiday pics but there will be a slideshow in the future!
The lights on the strip are amazing.
The reason why we were down here..my parents 40th Wedding Anniversary!
They are still so in love

Viva Las Vegas…
Caribbean Paradise…it was ours for two weeks!
Back on Dec 5th Jeff and I with our friends Kari-Ann and Darryl took off for a much needed vacation! We were in Orlando FL for a couple of days and had the chance to go to Disney World, SeaWorld and do some great shopping! hee heee
Then we boarded our ship the Emerald Princess for a 10 day cruise to the Eastern Caribbean. We went to Bahamas, ST Thomas, ST Kitts, Barbados, ST Lucia and Antigua. The weather was a perfect 28 degrees and sunny the whole time. We had a blast!
Some of my favorite parts of the trip was feeding the dolphins, the Strawberry Margaritas, feeling the sun on your face and the wind in your hair, the salt on your lips from the sea, getting to hold a 6 month old monkey, lots of laughs with good friends, the feel of the sand between your toes, swimming in the turquoise water, having so much time with Jeff and lastly…..having no e-mail or computer for two weeks! LOL
Here are just a few hi-lites from our trip…ENJOY
Cheers,
Shelley
Day 9
Up at 3 am but really it seems like 2am because of the time change…ack…I was a zombie…Jeff seemed quite awake…not sure why.
I got a beautiful pic of the Rockies on the way home it’s uaually cloudy when we fly over them.
We had a wonderful trip and are all relaxed and ready for the wedding season!

Day 8
Off the ship and back in LA for a day so we rented a car and went to Santa Monica Pier. It was so nice out so we cruised the coast and ended up here. We hung out, checked out all the street vendors, walked along the beach and had our picture taken in a photo-booth. It is horrible…but so frickin funny. We thought we were in a booth that did a filmstrip but apparently this one only took one so I am smiling and Jeff kept making all these stupid faces and you should see how it turned out! O lordy…I will scan it and post it tonight…
The last picture is of a ring Jeff bought me while we were in LA…as many of you may or may not know I don’t wear my wedding rings because the size of my fingers change so much during the day…they often fall off if my hands get cold. Sooo I quit wearing them in fear of loosing them so Jeff bought me this beautiful ring and because it is not joined to another ring I can put a little sizer thing in it so it won’t fall off. He’s so sweet..now we won’t get weird looks when people see Jeff has a ring on and I don’t!!!
I just have to add that Jeff is the Master of the fish eye lens…these are sooo cool!



Day 7
Day at sea….Here’s a couple from that night’s show….in the bottom picture they are doing their own take on the movie Titanic…a good choice when you are on a ship??? Is that some kind of sick joke? haha
Just to put a little more salt in the wound…I beat Jeff 13 times in a row at crazy eight’s! I thought he was going to throw me overboard..feed me to the sharks! haha
