Cruise and birthday celebrations!

Well, I am posting twice in one day, because I am trying to put too many pics in, I guess it doesn't want to work...so work with me. This is all about our oh so fun cruize we took in March during spring break, as a Miller family! We cruised on the Royal Caribbean and went to San Diego, Catalina Island, and Ensenada Mexico. We had a great time! I could post many pics, but I'll take it easy and put the best ones up.

Our CRAZY ride to the LA port
Our beautiful ship!
There we are in San Diego!
The wonderful Grandma who took us all on the cruise!
Alex ate escargo! aka...cooked snail. I totally tried it too...not bad. but i would never eat it again!
There we are with beautiful Catalina Island behind us!

Alex and Emily were hardcore rock climbers, all geared up!
If you notice the water behind us, we are standing in front of la bufadora...aka the blow hole in ensenada!

Enjoying some Sun!
All of us girls got airbrush tatoos. It was fun while it lasted.
Our room service lady always did really cute things with our towels while we were gone and she cleaned up our room.

After this trip we came to realize that this will be the first of many cruises for us. We had such a great time, we got to see a lot, eat a lot, and it was definitely an awesome experience.


I got really excited to post about our cruise, and I neglected to even mention Alex's birthday in February. I tryed so hard to surprise Alex with a little dinner get together, but he's too smart and figured out my plan. We enjoyed Wahoo's (over at palm and nees) for some very yummy dinner with matt and terra, and also our good friends james and kresta kraucyk. They have the best rice and beans with their delicious fish tacos, shrimp quesadillas, and my favorite taquitos with carnitas inside....mmm!

Silly James and Kresta

Matt and Terra
I took Alex on a fun scavenger hunt for his birthday gift. I always got a thrill when my mom did it for us. And actually I think I had more fun watching Alex look in all the hidden places for more clues! haha. It was well worth it though he was very happy to find his gift at the end!
In the fridge....good place to hide a clue


That was the perfect picture to capture his happiness as he ended in the garage and found behind the mattress ROCK BAND! I had it hiding there for a few days, so there is one secret I was able to keep!
We had some fun playing around!
Even though it was Alex's gift, I still get to enjoy it a lot!
We both almost had a perfect score! Pretty cool! This was after a couples days of practice let me tell you. Good quality time together! I love it!

Well everyone, one more post and then I should be caught up to date....haha. So i hope you guys enjoyed reflecting with us on the past couple months and the fun times we have had together. We are blessed with so much happiness and wonderful families who love us! We are so lucky for all we have! Have a great rest of your week, and don't be surprised if I post again later this week!
