VACATION TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And we are off............for a much needed vacation and rest! We leave this morning EARLY for our 8am flight to Ft. Lauderdale and get on the boat right away. This is Leanne's first cruise and we could not be more THRILLED TO INTRODUCE HER TO PARADISE! Ha! eat, tan, eat, nap, eat, dance, dress up, eat, sleep...and best of all....see some countries none of us have been to! So where are we going.....

We will be on the boat for 8 days and yes I am praising the Lord for providing this for us! It will be a joyous time. We will celebrate Dad's 55th, Mom retiring, their 33 wedding anniversary, Leanne's 27th birthday at the end of June, and the end of my 5th year teaching! FUN FUN FUN!

We only have three stops the whole time which means hours of watching the ocean waves and feeling the wind in my hair! OH I COULD START CRYING happy tears right now! ha! Should I not ever blog again...know that it is due to me falling madly in love with a native man and refusing to leave hahahhahahhahahahah oh that would make for a good post now that I say it out loud! hahahaha! I think I just heard God chuckle at that last statement.....just letting Him know I am up for anything hahah!

Another thing that I am excited about is buying some local art at each stop. This is one of my favorite things to do!.....and small tea sets with the two little cups...oh I just love those! Anyway, I am writing all this ahead of time and post will pop up while I am gone of where we are that particular day!.....ps...Panama is known for their sloths and I am hoping to get VERY CLOSE TO ONE!!!!!!!! I have a secret fascination with those things!

ok must say goodbye! Pray for our coming and going if we come to your mind! We would appreciate it! I know I will have tons of pics to share and with the ample time to just sit in the shade and read in the morning I hope God invites me to learn some neat things about Him! Love you!!!!!
