live life to the fullest

So in the last few months I have really decided I want to see the world.  This ideas isn't totally new to me.  It has always been a desire of mine but always more of in the future.   Well the future is here, dangit! and I am going to make it happen.  I call it my mid life crisis. 35 years old could very well be mid life right?  I have heard from my parents and Landan's dad multiple times that they regret not vacationing more when their kids were young.  Obviously the majority of us have a limited budget, which can make it harder to feel justified in spending money on vacations.  But I have decided that if I can pay all my bills and put a little money away each month for vacations then that is exactly what I am going to do.  We never know what obstacles will be in our future but I am pretty sure I won't ever regret seeing the world.  So with that being said, I am announcing that I have booked my first time ever cruise to the Bahamas!!  We will also be spending a couple days in Florida (where I have also never been)  This great event is not happening until January.  Which gives me plenty of time to get prepared.

Sounds like a great idea! Where else do you want to travel? It will be nice for you to have this to look forward to for the rest of the year.

oh that is FANTASTIC!!! I need to see the world too. Or at least Hawaii, New York and a carribean cruise. And I really want to take Tyson on an Alaskan cruise for our 10 year. He will love it and I will love that he loves it so much. Will it be cold in May/June you think? ;-)

The best part is that you need new clothes to go on a cruise! Win Win Win all over the place!
But remember that you don't take a vacation from modesty (couldn't resist!)
