Being Mrs. Walling: Cruisin' Together

" Baby let's cruise, away from here

Don't be confused, the way is clear

.........

Let the music take your mind

Just release & you will find

You're gonna fly away

Glad you're going my way

I love it when we're cruisin' together

The music is played for love,

Cruisin' is made for love

I love it when we're cruisin' together "

-- Gwyneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis

So, last night, Rob and I were talking about our first wedding anniversary (May 6th, 2007). I know you're thinking... Already??? But really, it's only about 6 months away and we were throwing ideas on what to do... Well, we thought we would go to Europe, but then we also thought (hey, let's stick to the plan... Our plan is to start having kids after our European vacation, so that would be way too soon! Plus Rob said he doesn't want to take 2 or more weeks off at work)... My in-laws went on a cruise a year or so ago and they told us how awesome it was... so, we decided that we're going on a cruise!!!

We started looking around for itineraries and found the perfect cruise for us... Well, the thing is we have to schedule our trip around a wedding on May 12th, which I am helping Aunt Helen plan. (I work with the bride's aunt and she was at our wedding and absolutely loved it, so that's how it all got started!)... So, it's official, we're going on an 8-day cruise to the Bahamas and the Caribbean, either the last week of April/first week of May or the 3rd week of May... I'm really excited about this. We get to experience these amazing places...
