Happy New Year and leaving on a cruise!

That's right, we are going on a four day cruise WITHOUT the children! Why have I not mentioned this before, you ask? Well, because I have sort of been in denial about it....Scott got it for me for my 35th birthday on January 5th and I have been wavering between being more excited than I have ever been and being sick to my stomach at the thought of leaving them....I have never left them for so long. It would be fine if they were staying with Aunt Michelle the entire 5 days, but Michelle had to go back to work so they will be with a babysitter for half of it. And this is the part I am nervous about. I just spent an hour and a half typing out EVERY little detail of my day with the kids and I am exhausted just reading it! It is four pages long, my life reduced to 4 pages...I do A LOT!!! I hope Aunt Michelle and the babysitter can handle it....

Well, the rain finally stopped and the kids needed to get out of the house, so we went to Golden Gate Park to the Consrvatory of Flowers and the Japanese Tea Garden. It was nice to gt out of the house... Posted by Picasa
