Thanksgiving 2008

Well I haven't had much to post until now. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving full of good food and great company. I missed my friends and family but had a terrific time on our family cruise. The kids had a week off school for Thanksgiving break. So we decided to make some fabulous family memories. Boy, we certainly made some memories that will probably never be forgotten by anyone in our family or or friends the Wilkin's family. So we flew to Miami on Nov 23 and embarked upon a cruise that will live in our minds FOREVER. We had a day and a haft at sea and arrived in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Tues night. It was a quick trip off the ship and back on, but we got some cute pics there. The next day was a day in St. Thomas. It was BEAUTIFUL! Poor Alexa was stuck on a beach in St. Thomas. We got back to the ship for dinner and the next day was ST. MAARTEN. Oh that day was the best and the worst! We had more fun there than anywhere else. Which is what got us into trouble. We rented two jeeps for our two families. And toured the beaches on the island. No one wanted to leave the last most perfect beach with the most awesome waves EVER!!! And who knew there was going to be the worst rush hour traffic we have ever seen. So two families who are supposed to be on the boat by 4:30 were no where near it. And still not there at 5:00 when it was supposed to take off. We were praying like crazy!!! Finally we see the boat and park the jeeps and go running as fast as we could to the end of the boat where we can get on with crowds of people cheering and clapping and screaming "run! run!" It was harrowing!!! The last two days at sea had perfect weather and we made it home with lots to be thankful for!!! Thanks for hanging in this long and taking a look at the pictures. We love you all and miss you so much!!!
