Thanks to Jodie and Terry and their cruises, my hubby and I have decided we want to take another cruise and thought we'd see who else wants to go.  From doing some research we decided that September would be a good month.  The prices are low cuz kids are back in school.  It looks like we could get one for about $350 per person for a 5 day out of Galveston.  If summer would work better, it would cost about $500 per person.  Depending on how many we had going, we might qualify for a group rate.  If this happens, I claim Terry's house for Clay and I, lol so we can park for free.

The reason I bring this up now, is it would give everyone almost a year to save the money.  So if you're interested please post here and tell me which month you'd rather go in.  I'm also open to other suggestions too.

*EDIT*  Points to think about...INCOME TAX REFUND...what a better way to spend it.  I believe Carnival takes payments too. 

Passports are required and take a long time to get.  If you don't have one, that will be another expense.  I might ask for mine as a Christmas present.

    Tim won't be back so I might just do it if I can get grandpa to come kid sit - even if it's a family type one I don't want to pull the boys out of school(not to mention pay for 4 peeps) - will do that when Tim gets home :)

    Terry you'll come get me from the air port right:) starbucks on the way
    Home is where the army allows me to live with my husband

    I know what I need to do - I have to choose to take care of me or I choose to fail

    Ummmmm.....if you park here, how are we getting to the docks!?!?!?  I guess that's what they make cabs for, right?

    Put me down tentatively for one.

    Good point... CARPOOL?  If we carpool we would only have to pay for one car, not several.  Or maybe we could hire a friend of yours to drive us.  Clay and I would love to sleep on your floor or couch or whatever the night before too.
