Tomorrow Rye and I leave to go with Gam for a week on our first cruise. Well, Gam has been on many cruises but this will be the first for Rye and I. And it will be Rye’s first time out of the country (with the exception of Canada). We are really excited.
Personally, I am a bit concerned about getting sea sick but everyone tells me since the ship is so big it should not be an issue. And the other night we watched the movie “White Squall” (which was really good, by the way) and now I feel like a wimp for being concerned about being on a giant cruise ship. Oh well, I’m sure it will be fine.
We have some fun excursions planned. Horseback riding, underwater moped things, and deep sea fishing (not me, Rye And Gam, they love deep sea fishing. I can’t stand it. I went once off the coast of Portugal and thought I was going to die right there on the ship from sea sickness. In fact, my boyfriend and one other guy from England, Matt, were the only two people on the boat that weren’t passed out from sickness by the end of the day. It was gross).
And Rye cut all of his hair off last night for the cruise and for football. Buzzed it. I almost didn’t even recognize him. His head looks so small now without 20 pounds of hair on it. Weird.
Anyway, I hope everyone has a good week. We will miss Don but I’m sure we will have many tales of intrigue for him when we get home.
We love you Don!
on a side note last night Rye told Don that if he makes it big in football he’s going to buy Don whatever kind of Jeep he wants (Don loves Jeeps). I thought that was so cute.

Regarding the Jeep comment – That was one of those things that was just so touching. I literally started to get teary-eyed as he told me.
Have a great trip!! That’s really sweet about the jeep, you’ve got a good kid!
