The Beatles in Branson?!?!

On Thursday, Mom, Shelley, and I went on a little girls overnight trip to Branson. We decided to go to see "The Beatles" (don't laugh yet!!). We thought that it might be a little cheesey but we actually had a great time. When the three of us get together we ALWAYS have a great time!! Our tickets were on the front row center stage. When they asked if anyone was having a birthday my mom starts pointing at me (it's not for 2 more weeks!) so they get me up on stage. They also got Shelley up there along with two little girls. We had to stand up for the WHOLE song shaking the tambourines. Had Shell not been with me I would've died. It was really funny though. We decided that we are going to be "wanna be groupies" for the "wanna be Beatles". The cool thing was George Harrison's sister actually put this group together. She was there answering questions and singing along with them at the end. They were actually really good (for all of you Beatles fans out there).

Mom and Shelley

No explanation needed :) (that's Ringo behind us)
The"5th Beatle", Ringo, Lou Harrison, George, Paul, and John

Easter

We had a busy (but fun) Easter weekend. We went to Jared's parents' house on Saturday for a cookout and to my parents' house Sunday after church. I have cute pictures of the boys opening Easter baskets but Zane is in his underwear. I didn't think I'd embarrass him by posting those!!

House

I was just talking to my good friend Adrian and realized that a lot of our friends have never seen our new house. We've been here for a year now (I can't believe it)!!!

Cozumel

The boys in Cozumel. That's our boat behind them.Harrison with some cool sand toys. We played on the beach and in the pool while Jared and Zane snorkeled.
Jared in a hammock. I want one like this at home!!

The hanging monkey (and sheep). Can you tell that I really liked the towel animals??

Ice cream and Elephants!

The boys loved the 24-hour ice cream machines. Zane averaged 5 a day!! Harrison was so tired before dinner that he fell asleep sitting on the floor. We were in a very crowded area that was really noisy. I sat him off to the side and just fell right to sleep!
These are our waiters. They were so nice. They were with us for dinner the entire week. Everyone that worked on the boat was foreign. It was really cool to meet so many people from so many different places.
This is us at the entry to dining room. This was one of my favorite towel animals!

Jamaica

Our first stop (after 2 1/2 pretty rough days at sea) was Jamaica. It was nice. The people were pretty aggressive and it felt a little dirty but it was neat to see it. We went to a beach called Doctor's Cave. You had to pay to go in, but it was nice. I forgot to include this picture of Harrison in the last post. Doesn't he look like a little man!
One of Zane's friends from school was on our cruise. This is him, Zane, and his sister.
They made the coolest towel animals. They would always position Harrison's animals with it. This one is holding chocolate!!

Spring Break

We decided to take the boys on a cruise for Spring Break. We found out two weeks before we left that we are expecting another little Ennis in November!!! We are very very excited. I was a little nevous about being queasy from the pregnancy so we got some really good drugs to take with us!! I didn't feel wonderful but it wasn't as bad as it could've been. Harrison woke up with high fever the morning that we got on the boat! He had fever the whole trip and didn't sleep well. We still had a really good time though. I'll have to put a couple of different entries in to see all of the pics. It'll only allow a few on each post. This is a picture of our boat from Grand Cayman. You have to tender from the boat to the island. Harrison didn't feel good that day (and neither did I) so we stayed on the boat. The boys loved sitting on the window. We had adjoining rooms.
Zane loved the water slide!!
This is the boys during our first formal night.
