Come Sail Away...

Well, the cruise is only a few days away and we are in high gear. The lawn is mowed, the luggage is down from the attic. The dog has to go to the kennel, the cat needs to be taken care of, the trash needs to be taken out, the laundry needs to be done, the bags need to be packed and I'm sure I'm forgetting something. Preparing for a vacation is exhausting. Well... my next post should be a review of the cruise. Until then... stay tuned.

WAY over due for an update

Okay... so I have done a lousy job of keeping the blog up to date. I'll try harder... really. Let me try to get caught up with the highlights at least...

My friend Allen is still in Afghanistan, but is due home soon. He had to make an emergency trip home in January because his father passed away. It was a very sad reason to get to see him, but I was happy to get to see him again. Also, thanks to his 10 days at home, he and his wife are now expecting their 4th child! He is one fertile boy!

Also, Leilani and I have been busy planning our annual anniversary vacation. Last year was a huge disappointment (Gatlinburg with terrible weather and we were both sick), so we are trying to make up for up this year. We are going on a cruise. We will sail from Miami, FL to Key West, FL to Georgetown, Grand Cayman and then back to Miami. It is a 5 night cruise. It is the first cruise for both of us and we are very excited about it.

That's about all the news that's fit to print. I'll try to put a nice long post up when we get back from our cruise to let everyone know how it went.
