Hamm Family Cruise: Cozumel

Grant worked so hard and found a boat to charter in Cozumel that included scuba diving, snorkeling light lunch and sailing around the island. The kids loved it and when we docked 4 hours later they didn't want to get off the boat!

There were about 20 of us on the cruise together and we didn't plan many official group activities. But almost everyone came on the boat and it was so fun to relax in the sunshine, see the beautiful fish and make memories together. This one of of my favorite days and the highlight was getting to take Cadie snorkeling for the first time. We all jumped in the water together, but after one short peek at the rish, Jack Ranger was ready to get back on the boat. I swam him back to the boat, and then Cadie and I went snorkeling and she was AMAZING. She used her mask and snorkel like a pro and was so good at pointing out fish and she would even swim down just a bit to see them better. We snorkeled for almost an hour and she was going strong even at the end. We were fairly close to shore and the fish were everyone! It really was beautiful and it was even more beautiful to see God's creature new through Cadie's eyes. I think Dad has found his future scuba diving partner!

After the boat Cadie got a little braid in her hair and we took silly pictures in big boots. There was a line to get back on the boat so little Ranger got a rest while being held by Daniel.

How fun! Cadie reminds me of our Cadence. We took her snorkeling in Hawaii last summer and she was fearless too!
