75 days left and a cruise!

Our traveler's insurance documents came in today for our cruise this summer that we're going on with some great friends of ours. This trip has been in the planning for over a year... we first talked about it last year, but neither of us could really afford to do it with us buying a home and P finishing up her master's. So when it was brought up, we would always say, "Maybe next year." Well now it's next year! After doing some research, we finally decided to book a cruise to the Caribbean. But even after putting down our deposit, it still didn't seem real until our insurance papers came in. With the celebration of the 100th day of school today, I know that looking forward to the cruise will help the rest of the year fly by. It's hard to believe there are only 75 days of school left. Which leads me to reason #414 of why I love my job: Pajama day which includes 100th day breakfast (sausage stick and two pancakes to make the number 100). I know, I know... you're filling out an application right now to become a teacher.



Here's a picture from our first cruise we went on with D's parents (they still weren't sure about the whole cruise thing until after the first day or so on the trip), D&M (family, but more importantly great friends), and lil' bro D. D and I had a blast and have been counting down the days until we could go again!

lesie, no cruise with the familia? why ever would you want to "jump ship" (haha..) and not go to alaska? i'm so excited for you! this sounds like it's gonna be amazing!

ps--we did tell the padres that we aren't going to alaska this summer. sounds like almost everyone has backed out.

l- i was missing my pjs too this morning... but we planned it well to get both pjs and jeans in this week. :)

m- ha ha. the thought of being the youngest on the ship by several decades just wasn't appealing. plus, we have our family reunion during that same time. alaska does sound fun... but you'll have to go too. who else has backed out?

seriously- I hadn't even thought about how great it is that 100 day wasn't also on a Friday! :) so pj's yesterday and jeans today- woohoo!
I was just telling Lissie yesterday that I can't believe this year is more than half over. I just love all 4 of you and will really miss kindergarten! Maybe I will just become yall's permanent groupie and hang out in kindercove even after mine move up. :)
