A Couple Things


First- (and foremost)

My Hubby and I took a week long vacation to Lake Tahoe. This is our first "adult" vacation in 4 years. Meaning longer than 72 hours!

Boy does my butt hurt, but we sure had fun. Now before those eyebrows get raised TOO high, let me explain. We went snowboarding- a lot. Well ok, 3 days for me and 5 for Randy and for me, that's a lot!

Our hotel was 200 yard from the ski lift gondola to the top of the mountain. The village had several yummy restaurants and cute shops. We visited friends and they came up to see us too! On the whole it was AWESOME!!!

It was so nice to spend a week with just my Hubby. And guess what?!?! I still like him- I always knew I loved him, but every now and again we need to be reminded that our spouse is more than "That guy who helps with the laundry and picks up the kids". He's funny. He sweet. He handsome- Wow I need to remind myself more often!

I also enjoyed the snowboarding. It's so much fun. I TOTALLY suck at it, but I kept getting back up again. Except for the one time I fell so hard I think I broke my butt. That took a few moments of just kneeling in the snow waiting to see if I could think again. I'm bad at it but don't care I have fun and really, isn't that what it's about. My Hubby and I can share an activity together that is fun, challenging, filled with exercise (what's that?) and gorgeous scenery- I can't wait to go again next year!


Second....

I've been thinking about life and plans. Life's short and plans get pushed aside. Well BAH!

Here's what I am proposing:

3-day Mexican Cruise. "Us" girls. August.

Plenty of time to save up. (and maybe find a cheap deal)
Plenty of time to prepare.
Plenty of reasons to go: FUN, FOOD, FUN, SUN, FUN, FRIENDS,FUN, FUN,FUN!

Ok girls: Who's with me?

Life is too short to miss out on a fun weekend. Too short to sweat the small stuff and too short for excuses.

And this summer, who knows? I may even try surfing!
