I was just reading your blog yesterday and am very much looking forward to following along. I would love to do a villa suite with our extended family, but we've yet to even get them to agree to a cruise.

You are going to love it, but I warn you, you will be addicted to Star class after that.

Steven said "She's on social media so much, that I don't have to be." In other words, let the wife do the work and then he chimed in, "I'm just here for my looks." #sigh It was so nice meeting y'all last month. We are looking forward to cruising with you again in 2021. We're still jealous that y'all got deck 8, but we are more than happy with our deck 9 A2. Good point about watching the kiddos grow up. I hadn't even thought about it that way.

When I'm not cruising, I'm vicariously living through everybody else's blog on here. Glad to have you following along. Star or not, any cruise is better than no cruise. Have a blast!

We booked this cruise on 10/10 and immediately emailed Jay asking if he would be okay with us requesting him again. Received a reply that night from Anna saying Jay would still be on vacation and that we'd have Alan. We will miss Jay, but we are looking forward to meeting Alan. Speaking of, if anyone has any gift ideas for Alan or would like to say anything about him, we would more than appreciate it. We received our questionnaire the day after booking. Now, it is just a waiting game for our genie email, but I feel like we cheated since we already know who our genie will be.

Well my husband has been after me about blogging our trip, so here goes. He claims that he will be helping me blog, but I'll believe it when I see it. Atleast at this moment he is sitting next to me looking at the screen and not reddit for once. A little background on us: I'm Tiffany, and he's Steven. Our circus consists of four kids who are nine, seven, one, and eight months. Steven retired from the Army last year, and I'm a stay at home mom. We knew we wanted more time to be able to cruise, so we decided to take a stab at homeschooling this year. So far so good, and to make it even better, it is significantly cheaper cruising when it's not over school break. Our cruise plans: We were originally on the Allure of the Seas September 1st cruise that got shortened by three days due to Dorian. We stuck with the cruise, and had an amazing time and got a nice future cruise credit since we were in a 2 bedroom aquatheater suite. It was so great, in fact, that we had to do a "grounding cruise" in a non-Star class cabin to bring us back down to Earth. Guess it didn't work, because here we are doing another Star class cruise on November 17th. The ship and cabin: Allure of the Seas 10730 (2 bedroom aquatheater suite) We would have loved to be back in the deck 8 aquatheater suite, but since it's a last minute booking for a family of six, we were lucky to find this one open. We will try to keep this as live as possible but with four kids and star class food coma, no promises.

Last month on Allure, when we asked for light snacks for our cabin crawl, Jay told us it could be arranged but we'd have to pay for it. Our friends in the Owner's Panoramic suite were also told this by Agostina. Maybe, it was due to our cabin crawl being such a large group. I do believe there was 59 participants.

Following along. I will be on Allure 9/1 and have the same type of room booked as you on Navigator on 3/30/20. If you get a chance, I would love to see some pics of your room on Navigator. Have a blast!

I'm so ready for French onion soup. I love the burnt cheese on top. Eat enough to hold me over for my September cruise.

Happy Anniversary! Looking forward to following along on your adventure.

I also have an android and wasn't able to find it, but I did find this widget and it is free.

Right there with you... we have it booked for 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Hey Andrew. Our oldest two will be 10 and 8 for the November 8, 2020 sailing. Message me about it on our roll call group and maybe we can get our genies to coordinate something for all of us.

Looking forward to following along on your journey!

Happy birthday! How was the cake? It looks delicious.

Loving your blog!

At this point, I feel like I'm having cruise withdrawals lol. I had my youngest child in February, so the last time I was allowed to cruise (24 week mark) was in October and I have to wait until she is 6 months old to sail again. I loved reading your star class blog by the way!

Following along. Hope you have a fantastic time! We will be living vicariously through you since our next Star class cruise isn't until September 1st.
