all dressed up and no where to go

Well, not tonight!

We had somewhere to go... a formal dinner on the cruise!

It's kind of a pain to bring dress up clothes and pack them perfectly enough that they don't get wrinkled and ruined in your suitcase...
but when you don't party, you don't attend PROM anymore, you don't go to big events that allow you the opportunity to dress up (besides church), the cruise event is one that is actually kind of fun!
Sunday night was our first formal night of the trip. It was also MOTHER'S DAY!
My dear sweet husband came up with a wonderful idea as a gift to us mothers...
Not be a mother for the night. lol
He suggested all the boys take the kids at the large table and let the girls eat in peace!! I was thrilled.
It was a fabulous idea to me!
☺
Kambrie is a maniac at meal times. That's an understatement too people.
(granted, it is a long night waiting for our three course meals which usually ended up being 6-7 course meals cuz we ordered whatever the heck we wanted! yum yum)
Sunday was a special day for me!!
I was lucky enough to spend Mother's day with my fabulous mom whom I love and adore. She means the world to me! And I was grateful to have my kids on this trip with us, and give them a huge hug and kiss. They are all I ever wanted. I'm so thankful, so lucky, so glad I'm their mom!!
What a fun memorable day.
