I can't believe it has been since November that I posted last. So much has happened. I will begin with the addition to our family. We decided to take in and foster Lance's great-niece. We will eventually move toward adoption. She is 6 years old and her name is Brianna. It has been quite an adjustment. We are used to me being the only female so none of us are used to all of the drama that comes with little girls. She's a beautiful little girl.

News on the Homefront
I can't believe that we leave for our cruise in 3 weeks and 1 day! I am so excited I can't stand it. We have arranged for my in-laws to stay here at the house with the boys. (So, anyone thinking they can come break in to my house cause the house will be empty you need to think again.)
Logan has stated tennis lessons. He loves it! I am so glad that he has found a sport that he likes. He actually looks forward to his lessons. I think I am going to sign him up for a tournament that will be taking place. My neighbors children are in the same group so she has more info that I have to get from her. This tennis thing is new for me so I just go to her for help.

Early Christmas Present
I am so excited right now because Lance and I have decided to give each other an early Christmas present. Goodness NO! I am not pregnant! We have purchased cruise tickets. Neither one of us have ever been on a cruise so this is going to be awesome! Our cruise is on Royal Caribbean International. We are going with the Nealys so it is sure to be a fun trip. The trip is in October (hence the early Christmas) and we are flying to Barcelona, cruising to 3 ports in Italy (I can mark this off my bucket list), and 2 ports in France before heading back to Barcelona! It seems surreal that I am actually going to Spain, Italy, and France. There is lots to do: create a will, get passports, lose weight, decide what clothes to take, etc. I will probably buy a memory card for my camera just for this trip. I can't wait! 93 days and counting!

Easter and More
Well, we went to Georgia for Easter to visit my parents. We enjoyed being with them and the time seemed to fly. We were pretty busy during our visit. We arrived late Thursday night and pretty much went straight to bed. Friday, Lance had to do a little work from the house and Nick and I had to go shopping for Easter clothes. The boys were surprised by their Nana and Papa with a Wii to play with while we are there. No, it didn't come home with us (we have enough game systems here), but it stays at their house so they will have it to play every time we visit them. Everyone, including Mom and Dad, spent a lot of time playing that.
Easter morning was really nice in that we went to Mom and Dad's church. It went well, service was good, and Grandmother ended up coming. After church we went back to the house, took some pictures, and packed up the car to leave. The trip home wasn't too bad, but about halfway it started raining and we drove in rain the rest of the way home. We got home around 10:00 p.m.
