Who Wants To Cruise?

So I am possibly going to be booking a group for a great Mexican Riviera Cruise sailing in early June 2010... it is a 7 Day, On the Carnival Splendor... Right now I can get a rate of $549 per person... but if I can get a few more people who want to go, I should be able to either get a better rate, or at least get some good free stuff thrown in! It sails out of LA, so those that live there, sweet... and those that don't it is a cheap flight or a decent drive...

Let me know if you want more info or if you know someone else who wants to go! This could be a ton of fun! And just because I am doing a group, doesn't mean you have to know the other people in the group... you don't eat together, or have rooms that are close... your bills are completely separate.. for all you know you never even know that someone is in your group.... you just use each other to get better rates and free stuff!

Life In Texas

So I am not a Texan by any means, but have made the drive out twice now, and have been here almost two months.. (minus our not planned extended visit to utah)... really, in Austin, unless you have a ton of money to go blow, there isn't a whole lot to do. If you love to eat, and have some bigger clothes to grow into, or are ready to go buy a new wardrobe, then you will love it here. So much freakin amazing food! No matter where you go, its like you've died and gone to heaven... really...

But it really makes me appreciate the beautiful state that we call HOME... Where you can go hiking up the canyon, you can go down to the lake, or take a drive to Park City, or go camping to Pete's hole... All of which can cost as much or as little as you want... I miss our mountains... and I am so excited to get back for Fall... the gorgeous weather, crazy storms, amazing colors in the trees....

So many things are changing this fall. I am getting bigger and bigger every day (and she is already a very busy girl! ) I have a new nursery to get ready, work to do, and lots more... I am past my half way mark in the pregnancy and only gained 10lbs... which at this point is on the low end of what should be gained... but I am huge.... AH! What an experience this one has been! This who pregnancy has been so different, starting from day one. But will be so great in the end! She hasn't been sitting on my ureter yet, so that's a plus!

Anyway. I should be back for good around the end of September... I don't think there are that many people who really care that we are gone, but for those who do, we will be back soon! No worries, we are not staying here for good!
