This week has been a whirlwind! I have had so much going on, let me let you all in the loop:
My husband has next week off and we are taking the three boys and cruising to the Bahamas! Wish us luck, it’s our first cruise and we’re both a bit nervous about having all three boys on a ship. I’ve done a ton of obsessing research though so I think we’ll be fine and I have lots of plans to keep the boys busy and let us get some relaxing in too.
My middle son Nash turns four next week as well and wanted a pirate themed birthday so that works out well with the cruise don’t you think?! I have some pirate adventures up my sleeve for him!!
We decided against homeschooling for now and I registered Jack, my oldest, for kindergarten yesterday. It’s a year-round school so he starts next month!! I can’t believe my baby will actually be going to school, its a bit overwhelming for me!
With all the hustle and bustle getting ready for vacation and Father’s Day and Nash’s birthday, registering Jack for school, etc. I still have about twenty unfinished projects around the house. Reality has set in and as hard as I’ve tried I am realizing its time to set them aside until after the trip.
I promised my husband I would do my absolute best to unplug while we’re on vacation. Being as frugal as I am I think they high-priced internet on board the ship will help me stick to that promise so I am planning on being out of the loop for the next {gasp} 10 days.
I’m going to take tons of pictures and will share them when we get back as well as answer any of your emails. Until then, I have some posts scheduled to go up while I’m gone-including a giveaway, so here’s wishing you all a great week!
Thanks for stopping by!

Oooh, SO jealous! I’ve always wanted to go on a cruise, and from what I hear they’ve got oodles of way to keep the kids entertained. Have a wonderful time and, when you get back, remember: Pictures or it didn’t happen! ;P
