come on now and give me some fire.

March 30 - I got to attend the San Jose Fire Department badge-pinning ceremony. It was held at the historic Hayes Mansion. 

I am so proud of my husband. <3

teal boots, again

I wore my teal boots to a Sharks game. Even though they are a snug fit, I was able to walk comfortably in them.

This is how I looked on March 22.

I think I'm wearing a shirt and a skirt under the coat.

There were two nights on the Disney Cruise when we got to dress up.

Golden Mickeys night. 

The special theatre show that night was the Golden Mickeys, featuring Broadway-style re-enactments from Disney movies.

vacation time to get away

Another Disney Cruise post. Of course!

The first two Disney Cruises, Brian and I were on the Disney Magic. This time, we got to be on the Disney Wonder.

What I looked forward to a lot on this cruise was taking a photo next to the Ariel statue.

vacation all i ever needed

In March, I went on a Disney Cruise with Brian and our families to the Mexican Riviera.

This is photographic proof that I will wear whatever I want to wear on vacation, regardless of the weather.

This is what I wore on the first day onboard.

Yes, I am wearing a hoody AND a leather jacket. But I am sooo loving on my pina colada / strawberry daiquiri drink!

This is my second day onboard.
