Cruise Vacation!

I realized about six weeks ago that we had four days in October with EVERYONE out of school and home from work. No one was on drill team or a basketball team either. It seemed as if all the stars had aligned for a trip! I found a pretty cheap cruise and Cam & Kam finagled nights off at the hotel and we picked them and Austin up on the way!

First stop?  Las Vegas

We spent the night to break up the long drive and then the next morning we were on our way to Long Beach:
