Valentines and Presidents Day Weekend

We both had President's Day off, so we took advantage of it and spent the weekend with some special people.  We took care of Dane and Nora on Friday nite with G'pa and G'ma Anderson, while their mommy and daddy enjoyed a nite away.  In the morning we joined them in at the Arrowwood and the kiddos played in the waterpark.  Then we went on to Gary and Diane's on Saturday.  Went to a nice potluck with their friends that evening.  Sunday, we and Gary and Diane went down to the cities and joined Ben and Jen and Chad and Sasha for a Valentines dinner theater.   Spent Sunday nite back at Gary and Diane's and stopped back at Mike and Amanda's Monday afternoon before returning home.

We're sorry we didn't take more pictures!

Cruisin'

It already seems like a long time ago that we enjoyed a fun trip with four other couples...here we are ready to board the Carnival Sensation at Port Canaveral.  We had a great four day cruise to Freeport and Nassau Bahamas.  We laughed and ate ourselves sick!!  We have wonderful memories of an awesome week together!

Brian had his birthday on the cruise....of course we celebrated! 

We enjoyed a formal dinner each night in the dining room.

Returning home to cooking again is a rude awakening!

Here is a view of Paradise Island at Nassau.

Bruce and Rhonda and we braved it and ate conch salad and fritters

at this roof top cafe in Nassau.

Some of us visited the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse the day we got off the ship.

Most of us spent a day at Epcot Center in Orlando before we came home.
