GRADUATION!!!


After 2,550 days in school, this cool dude finally finished school! 


"The group". These guys have been together since the beginning; some we meet during orientation week.  The boys have spent more time together than with their wives.



Caribbean Cruise

After graduation, Evan and I and our good friends went on a Caribbean cruise!  It was so much fun. We stopped at Key West, Grand Cayman, and Jamaica.  Below are a few pictures that we took.  


Before we even left Utah we had our own little adventure.  Evan locked his wallet in the car right before we took off from Salt Lake. It was a little stressful but Eric's dad came to the rescue and drove down with the spare key.  


This is a light house that was on Key West.  It was fun to walk around and see the town and all the shops.

This picture refuses to rotate, but it is the largest piece of Key lime pie EVER!  We asked a local the best place to find pie, and he send us to a restaurant named Blue Heaven. It was sooooo good!


This was just one of the dinners. The food was ok on the ship; they shot for quantity more than quality most of the time.  We also had really funny table-mates.  They were from Georgia and really nice people.


While in the Caymans we went snorkeling. The water was so clear and pretty.  As the boat was driving, the kept dropping food so by the time we stopped, there were about 30 stingrays all around. It was a little freaky, but so cool. Evan swallowed about half the ocean (which is the 4th most salty water in the world)  so he is well hydrated now!





Jamaica was really laid back- as expected.  Evan said it reminded him of the Philippines.  We went tubing down the Great River while we were there.


On the ship, the only place that had ESPN was a bar called the Bronx.  So as expected, we spent most of our evenings there hanging out on our coach.


And of course, it would not be a cruise without unlimited soft serve.  We have lots of other pictures on our underwater camera of all the exertions so I will post those when we get them developed.
