Paintball is a sport in which players eliminate opponents from play by hitting them with paint filled, breakable, gelatin paintballs usually shot from a carbon dioxide or compressed air powered "paintball marker".   This was our first time playing paintball and it was a blast.   Read all about it here, and check out the photos of our primitive camping.

Ever since we moved 2 years ago we have wanted to redo the front of the house.   One evening shortly after we returned from vacation Mark and I were standing outside looking at the house and planning what we were going to do to spruce it up a little.  Dad made the mistake of going for a motorcycle ride and was not home so we just started kicking and hammering... one hour later the sides of the handicap ramp were down and Dad returned home....   Surprise

Mark was approaching his 40th birthday and I wanted to do something special for this mile stone!  I started searching in June 2007 trying to find some place to go for a short vacation.  I looked at Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Florida, Phoenix and a few other cities.  Since this was a surprise trip and money could not disappear in large sums or else Mark would find out, I finally chose a cruise!  What other trip could I plan that would include lodging, food and entertainment for one price!!!
