Going Private!!!

So...I've been thinking of going Private now for a while and I 've had 2 recent things happen that....well have convinced me that Private is the way to go! My kids are just too cute to let just anyone be viewing them and our activities so often so Private I think is much safer... please leave your email address so I can make sure to invite you!!! I know it's annoying to sign in, but you can save your info and it shouldn't be that bad!
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahhhh....THE CRUISE!!!!





Last Sunday we left for our traditional "Leap Year Cruise"! We went on a cruise for our honey moon in 2000, they happened to go on another in 04, and then decided that we would try to make leap year our cruise year! It's amazing how fast 4 years went and how much has changed!! Monday we boarded "Paradise"!!









Our favorite port was probably Catalina Island! We rented a Golf Cart and drove all the island. They kids thought that the golf cart was so much fun!! It was beautiful, and warm.....fun!!




We had so much fun on the boat...cruises are the way to go....so relaxing....all your food is taken care of....tuns of fun stuff to do....you go different places and only unpack once! Our favorites on board were of course the pool, minuter golfing, movies... the shows but the most favorite of all for the kids was having our beds turned down! Their beds came out off the walls and when we'd go out at night and then come back to our room, their bed would be down and there would always be some kind of towel animal on the bed with little mints! The kids loved it, they look forward to it all day!

We got off the boat and told the kids we had a surprise for them....they were so excited but really had no idea what we were doing. I had packed their Mickey Ears with out them knowing and so Chris and put them on and looked at them and said...really you have no idea where we are going?!!! They got it pretty quick and were so excited! My awesome Aunt and Uncle could get us in for free...so how can you pass that up!! We picked up my little couz Preslee to come with us! Berklee loved having her and talked her ear off ( poor Preslee!!) It was not crowded and was beautiful weather, about 75 degrees, so it was a great day in the park!!
