June

A few days ago I came home from work and walked into our room to see Aaron smiling from ear to ear like a little kid! He is so adorable when he gets excited about something and I can always tell when he finds a new obesession so I was excited to see/hear about it!
He told me to hang on while he brought up a screen on the computer. I set my stuff down, changed, and got comfortable next to him while he pushed the button for the screen to turn on.. and what did I see?!

Atlantis Bahamas Resort


Now, if you don't know what that is.. just take a look for yourself!

Aaron told me he saw a commerical earlier in the day and had spent the last hour looking at the website exploring everything and looking at prices. Little did Aaron know, I saw the exact same commercial the same day and had planned on researching it as soon as I could also!
We had talked about going on a vacation coming in June, I graduate on May 19th with my Master's from George Fox University and wanted to treat myself for my hardwork the last 16 months and also Aaron for being such an amazing, wonderful, and supporting boyfriend during this stressful time (I still have 5 months left, too!) Originally, I wanted to get an iPad or a Mac computer, but who wouldn't want to spend a week with the man of their dreams?! :) So, plans changed - like usual for us!

We had looked up trips to Hawaii on Expedia.com but when we both saw this commercial, we knew it was the trip for us! Aaron has been looking non-stop at dates and what's included in the trip. We can swim with dolphins, use the scooter things underwater to propel us, and there is a 150 acre water park!!! We are such little kids, I love it!
We thought that maybe Sandals or Breezes or a cruise would be fun, but none of them have the waterpark, and we know we would have more fun with that included! Now, we just have to plan it all out - once we do our taxes, we should be able to book the trip. I am going to get a big chunk (hopefully because of me being in school) and Aaron should do better than the last few years, and we know we have to go in June sometime after Father's Day because there is no way we could get that weekend off..

But, at least we know what and where we want to go! :)
