Getting smaller

This week I have gotten to cross several things off our "to do list" for the cruise! Thus far, things are going nice and smooth, hoping that it continues to do so.

1) Deposit on Cruise is paid in full!

2) Passport papers are all filled out, documents gathered and pictures are made. We are going to turn these in on Monday and mail them off. Hopefully we will receive our approval/clearance and then 6 weeks later (hopefully sooner) have passports in our hands.

$40 passport pictures

3) Off Shore Excursion has been chosen, booked and paid for. Brian and the kids chose Blue Water Lagoon Private Island for our off shore excursion we will be doing in Nassau. (Blue Lagoon Island is a secluded island surrounded by white sand beaches, swaying palm trees and crystal clear water.Your private island getaway begins when you board a boat for a 30-minute cruise over to Blue Lagoon Island. Along the way you’ll see Nassau’s scenic harbor, Paradise Island and surrounding islands.) I think that I can handle white beaches, clear water and SUN--can't wait.

4) Carnival Kids paperwork is  complete. I am very surprised that Brian and the kids seem excited about this, I on the other hand, am nervous. Prayers for acceptance and peace are needed and welcomed. We have agreed to let the kids chose if they want to do this for an hour each day, they are already looking at what all there is to do.

5) Dinner time was decided (Eating between 5:45 and 9:30) There was no way that I could of chosen the early time because I am already trying to prepare myself for the many melt downs that are sure to come from the kids not wanting to quit playing, swimming, etc to go eat.  Heck and who cares if you get hungry before then, you can eat 24 hours a day!! I'm super excited about that part!!

Cruise Countdown:153 days, but whose counting?
