2024 Predictions

   As is my yearly tradition... I like to try to make predictions for the next year.  I love re-reading these blogs on New Years Eve, and seeing how my predictions went.  


  • We had such a great time on our cruise this year that we have THREE booked for next year!
  • We are going on Icon of the Seas in March and we are PUMPED!  I can't wait for this ship!
  • Over Memorial Day we are going on Symphony of the Seas
  • In the middle of November we are going on Utopia of the Seas
  • I'm hoping that we'll be able to go to Mickey's very merry Christmas party again and that we'll get to do another day in Epcot with Cody's cousins.
  • Over Labor Day we are planning on going to Gatlinburg and we'll hopefully get to go to Dollywood.
  • Not expecting any job changes in 2024 for Cody or myself.
  • Kayla really enjoyed gymnastics in 2023.  In 2024 we are planning on staying at Extreme Gymnastics and picking up another day a week at Gymnastics World to give it a try.
  • I want to focus on hitting Kayla's 1,000 books before kindergarden.  We are half way there right now.
  • Kayla keeps flip flopping her ideas, but I think that we are having a Peppa Pig themed birthday party for her this year.
  • Kayla might join a soccer team in the spring/summer
  • I think that we are going to spend a lot of time at Cedar Point this summer/fall.
  • We have monthly dates planned with Gigi and Papa again this year.
  • I think that we will officially decide to pull the plug on a second child if it doesn't happen by the middle of this year.
  • I am planning on hitting my weight loss goals and losing a cumulative 250,000 calories this year.
