Cruise Day 6- Cozumel

Hello darlings! Everyone take a moment to breathe a sigh of relief that we made it to Friday! The beginning of my week started out a little crazy, but by Wednesday things started to turn around. I think it has to do with the fact that I didn't work much this week haha. Is it bad that I'm actually enjoying this whole lack of a permanent job thing? Anyway on to the pictures! I promise we're almost through this vacation. I know some of you probably don't find this very interesting, but I have family members and friends that read this blog to stay up to date on my life. (and Gabe's)
So on Day 6 we were in Cozumel, Mexico. Our only plans for this day were to lay out on the beach and shop a little. The weather was beautiful and we had so much fun!












I would like to hold on to this picture forever because I know that this is probably the best my body will ever look. Lately I have felt at the peak of my physical fitness and it's amazing. I want to hold on to this feeling forever!

Bartering for some jewelry 

Just a normal day, hanging out with monkeys on a Mexican beach. And freaking out when it got in my hair!



"Someone get this thing off of me!!"




Oh. My. Gosh. I hate snakes... How did I get talked in to this??

Super fake smile haha


Chase decided to try out paddle boarding

 Gabe wanted to get in on it too!

 Our waiters danced for us every night. Quite entertaining!




Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend planned! We're going to my Memo's house tonight for my little cousin Emma's birthday dinner. Tomorrow we are going to Little Rock to do a little shopping. I need more job interview clothes and Gabe wants another suit or two. Our wardrobes have become so exciting. Blah! I miss spending my money on fun clothes. Anyway, have a safe and wonderful weekend!

My Time At Disney... WMML Post #7!

*Note: So sorry for the quality and shortness of these videos. I tried and tried to upload longer/ better versions and nothing was working. So this is the best I could do...*

If you didn't know, I worked at Disney right out of high school. It was a BIG dream of mine to go and work for their "entertainment" department for yeeeeaaaarrsss. I've been thinking a lot about Disney and how I miss it lately (one of my favorite things is- and don't laugh too hard, watching the full house episode where the go to Disney World).
So anyways, as I was thinking about it, I thought about this video (unfortunately its the ONLY video I have of my time there. My parents took it when they came to visit me, so I'm lucky to have it), I always laugh when I think of it. This is a clip from the Castle Show Dream Along With Mickey. I was VERY luck to be able to "help" Donald and Minnie out in the Opening Cast of this show (In this particular video I was "helping" Donald).

What's funny about it (if picturing me "helping" Donald isn't funny enough for you) is about half way through it, Donald takes a good hit in the face from Mickey. If you listen closely you can even hear it! But, like a good little duck he gets right back to the show... even though it hurt a little... and Mickey didn't even notice...


I had a few funny things happen while "helping" out with this show. In one performance as the cast is tossing around a giant clock, Donald (who had been having a rough day) couldn't seem to catch it. He got so mad that he ended up kicking the clock across the stage... LUCKILY the rest of the cast was laughing super hard and he didn't get in trouble from any of the managers or anything...

Another day it had been raining. The stage floor is made of some sort of fake rock that's sort of squishy and it gets really slippery when it rains. As Donald was running to the stairs he fell into a perfect split.

I have a million stories and could show you the entire 20 minute video, but I really don't want to find out how long that would take to upload (this one's taking long enough), and I'm sure you are all "story time"'d out. I hope you got a good laugh out of it. :) Questions are welcome. hahaha!

And for your viewing pleasure, another short video of Donald and the cast dancing...
