MIA

Well, boy! I've definitely been neglecting this little place for a while. I'm sorry about that.

It's hard to believe that summer is coming to an end and the fall season is quickly approaching. It's always a bittersweet time of the year.

We just got back from an Alaskan cruise and had the most wonderful time. Saw the glaciers, dophins, whales, bears, ate way too much delicious food, swam in the pool and soaked in the hot tubs ... it was fabulous!!!

Loved seeing what they can do with the towels.

Enjoying the hot tub ... everyday!!

J.J. wearing his new bear hat!!

The Hubbard Glacier was amazing!!!

Watching chunks of ice fall into the water was incredible too.

We also went whale watching and wow!! ... that was so much fun to see them come out of the water and breach (fall back into the water on their backs). We saw it happen twice but it was so quick that there was no chance to capture it on my camera.

We saw many dophins and they are so cute ... and so fast!!

A stop at Ketchican with our ship in the background.

The view of our ship (I'm standing at the back where the basketball court is)

Our last day was a sea day and it was absolutely gorgeous out on the pool deck. However, the ship was a bit rocky so the water in the pool was creating waves - kids loved it but had to hold on!!

Now we're getting ready for back to school next week! I'm really looking forward to getting back into a routine. Life gets to crazy for me when it's not in a routine. Yes, I like order ... not disorder. And it will be nice to have a clean house for at least a day. ;)

Today I'm sharing some projects on the Imaginisce blog using the new Monster Mash collection. This is a super fun collection. If you haven't seen it yet you can see the entire collection HERE.

Here's what I created.

Well, that's it for now.

Off to continue getting ready for our busy next week.

Have a super weekend!!!
