The Little Mermaid

Evie and I went to watch The Little Mermaid last night and had a great Mommy-Evie night! The show is slightly different than the movie in both good ways and bad, but it was fun to hear all the great songs that I knew from when I was younger. As we were leaving the theater, Evie spied a poster for Sound of Music, which is playing in January, and she is already bugging to get tickets to go!

I think the last time we all vacationed together was back in 2015 when we all went to Kauai . It was so long ago that not all the littles had even been born yet! So yes, a big family vacay was long overdue. The kiddos loooooved spending time with their cousins, whether it was playing bingo or ping pong, or biking and hiking or just hanging out at meal time or playing mahjong. It helped that since we were all on vacation mode, we didn't push (too hard) on eating healthy or limiting screentime. It also really helped that the service on the ship was so accommodating to the kids and (pretty good) pizza, ice cream and drinks were available at all hours. I was happy with the ship we picked too.
