I Blame Jaws


My husband has always wanted to go on a cruise.  I, not so much.

I have my reasons…..

  • Jaws
  • The Titanic
  • Jaws
  • I cannot get off the boat.
  • Jaws

I have an all consuming fear of sharks.  I will not dip a toe in the ocean, if I cannot sea the bottom.  Just typing this is making me nervous.  I blame the movie Jaws.

I love the water, and I love the ocean, but I will not go past my knees.  All I see is a huge shark coming out of the water, and biting off my arm.

Recently though, I have been thinking about summer vacations.  We have yet to take a vacation as a family anywhere, and we are finally in a financial situation where it could possibly be feasible.

Nothing this summer because of the move, but maybe next year.  The Disney cruise ship now docks in Galveston, and that is only a 6-7 hour drive from our house.  Very doable.

All this thinking about cruise ships has got me thinking about clothes.  What would I pack? What would I wear?

Well, I have put together a few outfits to get me through my days on the ship.

First, I would want to arrive looking super cute. This is my ode to the nautical look. I super love the shoes.

Fun Lunch With My Girls

Either of these outfits would look great for exploring the shops and history of the places where we stop.

Date Night

This would be great for a special evening with my husband.

Or something like this for an early evening meal with the family.

Last but not least, I need a swimsuit. I have not been working my butt off the past three months for nothing.

Perfect suits for the mom of three girls. The cowboy hat is a must.

All this outfit planning really makes me want to go on a cruise.  Maybe we can make it happen.  The girls would have such a great time.  I know the husband and I would also.  I would just have to figure out a way to keep him away from the poker tables all day long.  Maybe I should throw a bikini in the mix.

 

P.S.  I just read that 50 Shades of Grey is going to be made into a move.  I have a recommendation for Mr. Grey.

He would be perfect.  Just sayin.

That reminds me, I have Jane Eyre on the DVR.  The husband is so excited.

Have a happy and blessed weekend!
