We are on a cruise with Carnival this week . . . I was chosen to be one of ten instgrammers for their live “moment tracker”, which basically means my job this week is to have a great time on the cruise with my family and then upload the photos. Um, done! Here are some highlights so far:   You can follow along with our trip at Carnvial’s “moment tracker” website. . . .

1. Getting away from the kids for three whole nights (as much as we love our children), and not being on a mission trip! (as much as we love missions)2. Having fun with awesome friends who made a good time of whatever activity we did3. Watching my husband sing "Summer of 69" in a karoake bar, and then display his savant knowledge of 1970's song lyrics at the piano bar4. Observing lots of drunk people hit on each other and thanking my lucky stars I'm out of that whole game5. Getting to know . . .
