This week Brian started P90X. Funny, he's not just out of shape, he's deconditioned. He takes naps, has to rest, is the first one to go to bed last one up. Decides that he wants to get in shape, so Im thinking maybe start walking or riding a bike, and he comes home with P90X. Last night he was doing these pushups where you stick your butt up in the air and when you go down your head touches the ground. Emi was doing them with him and mimicking his every grunt and fall. Angie and Tony LOVED doing the pylometrics and tonight they asked to do the yoga with him. Me, I'm so overweight and out of shape, I'm sticking with the Jane Fonda workout for the more "mature set" that I'm doing with my mom. Brian was really impressed by how stong Angie and Tony are.
I was supposed to iron Kindergarten graduation gowns today, but they moved the picture day to next month. Darn, I was really looking forward to that.
Well, two stress ulcers later, we booked our trip to Tofino, British Columbia. I can't believe we are actually going to be there for Jack's wedding in September. Airline tickets for 9 are bought (including mom and dad). We wented a house and have secured a rental 12 passenger van. We had many discussions about skipping the trip and using the money to pay off debt. That's what Dave Ramsey would have us do. I justified going anyway by reminding Brian that if we weren't planning this trip, we wouldn't have the money to pay off debt because I would not be working extra. Over Spring Break we plan on getting passports. I still can't believe that we are actually going.

I think Dave would be ok with this. You aren't putting it on a card, you are paying cash. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and one of Brian's lifetime friends. Win win all around.
