what a good night

We went to Sam's ship Christmas party tonight. It was really fun. We didn't really do anything but sit at our table and talked to two other couples. But that was really fun. I really like the ladies (Julie & Danika) we were talking to. I felt I had a lot in common with them. I hope to get to know them more at another time.

But here is the big kicker we left Gwen and Gilbert with a babysitter!!! They survived! The ship approved a couple of sitters for parents and we took them up on the offer. I was worried about how Gwen would handle it but after a couple of minutes they were both fine. I checked on them a couple of time to make sure they were not screaming and they were not!!! This would be the first time I have left them with a sitter (beside my mom and my aunt Vicki). I was told that Gwen really bonded with one of the sitters and would not leave her side. The ladies said it was their first time watching twins so they had fun with them and watching how they interacted with each other. They said at on point Gilbert started to cry and Gwen went over to him to make sure he was ok. how cute!

Gwen and Gilbert were up about 2 and half our past their bed time and they were being so good. On the way home I kept them up because it was only a 10 minute drive and I did not want them to fall a sleep just to be moved in a couple of minutes. They were being so cute. We were play peek-a-boo (which is really "were is _____") and we were playing clap our hands and fives. They are so fun!

Look at their tired faces.

But here is some bad news I have lost my wedding ring! I have no idea where it is! I don't even remember where I took it off. I thought I was wearing it until I felt it was not there. I hope I find it.
