Vacation time!

So... I spent the last of the 'skydiving equipment sale' money...

On a cruise!!

We leave on March 16th, just after her birthday. Shawn's mother and her boyfriend are joining us too - it'll be a big family affair. The best part? Since his mother AND her boyfriend are both ex-military we got a big discount on the fare! Shawn and I paid for the boat and we're hoping his mom and her boyfriend will pay for the airfare to Miami for all of us.

I'm looking forward to a vacation - we have never had a vacation this extravagant before and I feel very fortunate to be able to go!

Carnival even has Camp Carnival for ages 2 - 5 so Arianna will have other children to play with and the rest of us will have some actual 'vacation time'.

Sounds like the best for everyone - but if it actually works out that way remains to be seen, of course...
