I really enjoy the blog and it always puts a smile on my face ! Hope yourself, Heidi and Kye had an amazing Holiday season. I am writing to ask for your assistance. My wife Lisa and I will be sailing on our 9th Carnival cruise together (Carnival Valor on 2/14/10) and will also be bringing our 2 children. We will also be celebrating our 13th Wedding anniversary. Lisa is a very special person and does "so much" for myself and our 2 girls. She always puts me and the girls before herself. I would like to do something special for her on this cruise and want to solicit your help ! I was thinking of a night at the Supper Club with Lisa would be a great start. Also, didn't know if you had any other ideas that would be a romantic way to show my Love for my wife. Thanks for anything you can do. Thanks John and look forward to cruising with you 1 day.. “John Please reply”,
