Ship-Faced: 2018 Cruise to Cozumel and Progreso

Image
Admittedly, it was dumb to start a blog right before going on a cruise, because it means I didn't post for a long time, but it is what it is. Anyway, I went on a 6-day cruise that left out of Galveston, TX and went to Cozumel, Mexico and Progreso, Yucatan.

My Family

I love my family and am so lucky to have them. To me, family is not defined by blood. I do not have many blood family members, but I have plenty of family that provide love, support, happiness, excitement, and laughter. These are the people who have been through so much with me. I would do anything for them. This is not an exhaustive list, but these are my closest family  members. Mom  Dad Amber, my roommate and bestie  Harmony, my soul sister  Colten aka Bub, my little brother  Kurtis, the homie Ashley, my sister for all intents and purposes Matthew, my boyfriend My Fur Babies, Nikki Noodle and BooBoo KittyF**k
