Going to finally go on that big vacation

So with the new stimulus check in our bank account, we decided that it was time to go on a big vacation...without the kids. Love the kids, but sometimes they just need to go away and spend some time with their grandparents. Next November will be one of those times. We're going to go with Tim and Kara Bell. Tim is a buddy of mine from my mission. We met on a dreary Thursday morning in St. John's, Newfoundland and after spending 4 months in the same apartment in Moncton, New Brunswick we became BOFF...we made matching bracelets and everything. :)

Anyway, we've been trying to do trips to Utah and Seattle to see family, but with gas prices above $4 a gallon. It makes it tough to do those big road trips. So we're just doing the Mexican 7-night cruise out of Long Beach down to Puerta Vallarta, Mazatlan, and Cabo San Lucas. Never been on a cruise before, I'm expecting that we'll have a lot of fun.
