The Countdown Has Begun!!

We are soo excited!! Brandon and I, along with Jared and Serena (my brother and his wife), are headed on a cruise in 75 days!! Brandon and I went on a cruise for our honeymoon, and have always dreamt of going on another one. We are driving and going to make a huge trip out of it!! We are leaving April 17th at 3:00 a.m. and heading down to California. We are going to spend a day in Disney Land, and then leave for our cruise monday. This time we are leaving from Long Beach and going to Catalina Island, and Ensanada. Then on our way back we will spend a day in Las Vegas. I am so excited! A couple days ago we booked our shore excursions :) We are going to kayak in Catalina, and go on a resort getaway in Ensanada. Jared served a spanish speaking mission, so it will be nice to have someone translate. It is going to be hard to leave the kids for that long. The longest I have been away from my daughter was when I went to Texas for four days, but she was with my husband. Jaden will be 12 and 1/2 months by then, but it will be the first time I will be away from him. I have been breastfeeding him so the weaning begins...not fun. I am looking forward to spending time with my husband without kids, we need it, as I am sure they do too. They are going to spend a week with Grandma and Grandpa Mecham. They are going to have a BLAST!! Grandma is taking a week off work and they are going to PLAY!! They are going to ride the fourwheeler with Grandpa, and get to ride the horses. Plus Grandma has a HUGE bathtub and both my kids love the water so I am sure they will be taking many of those ;)
I am going to try and not think about how much I am going to miss my kids for that long, and focus on the moments and advents I get to spend with my hubby and best friends. We are going to live it up and I can't wait!
