The day after Christmas Doug and I went on vacation together… no children. We are so grateful to his sister and her family for volunteering to watch our kids for the 6 days we were gone. We went on a cruise, which was the one thing on Doug’s “to do” list before the craziness of the coming year began (I’ll be explaining those plans in a future post); my “to do” was to lose 15 lbs and let’s just say I choose to begin that plan after the cruise).
We had a great time. We went with another couple (who left their three children at home too). My favorite part was being able to sit at a meal and eat without having to make 5 trips to the bathroom, without having to fuss at someone for continued use of the word “poop” and without needing to play 20 rounds of tic-tack-toe and losing on purpose. It was so nice have so much to do right there at our fingertips but to also have the choice to do nothing.
But next cruise, which we anticipate to be about 10 years from now, we both plan on making it to the top of the rock wall.

Oh, how I wish we could have gone, but saving for China is at the top of the priority list..but a meal without the word poop, would be fabulous! Looking forward to what craziness awaits us both in 2008~
