John and Andi's Spring Break was the last week in March and they had a very special week with their G-Mama!! Mom has always said that she wanted to do something really special with each of the grandkids when they get older, but still not too busy. She and I both agreed this would be a great time to do something really special with John and Andi. Next year John will be a senior and he only becomes busier each year. So, G-Mama decided now was the time and took John and Andi on a cruise through the Bahamas for their Spring Break. She let John and Andi help in all the planning and ideas and before you knew it they had a cruise booked. We took care of passports and then they were set.
John and Andi were both so excited about their first cruise!! They had an awesome time and had many adventures including, but not limited to: trying all kinds of new foods for the first time (not just plain old chicken fingers and fries for these kids) tried escargot, shark, and squid to name a few; driving motorcycles in traffic on the left side of the road in the bahamas; snorkeling; swimming with dolphins; riding on an airboat in the Everglades; singing Karaoke in a crusie ship lounge; being so far out to sea that you could not see any land; flying in the dark and through a thunderstorm; and many others!!
It was a very special time and one John and Andi will always remember with their G-Mama!! Andi actually kept a journal the entire time and I know we will all enjoy looking back through that over the coming years! Mike and I were so thankful they could experience all these things with G-Mama and so thankful for their relationship together!
I did not caption every photo because there were so many, but enjoy "some" of their adventures!!

Oh my goodness!!! I didn't know your Mom was taking John and Andi on a cruise - how fabulous! Last week, I was talking to this lady at church and they take each of their grandkids on a trip (wherever they want to go) when they are 12. Their last one is 12 this year and they are taking her to Hawaii. Those are wonderful memories that your kids made with your Mom! I'm so glad your Mom was able to do that with them. Their pictures are fabulous - they did a lot of fun stuff! I can totally see the 3 of them in the lounge on the ship just singing their hearts out! Good for them!
