We’re back from the cruise

Posted by Kat in Life, Vacation

Its been over a month since I’ve updated this blog, can’t believe it has been so long. We just spent 7 days on the Norwegian Spirit and went from Boston to Bermuda. John, myself, the children and my Mom all went and split two rooms.

Here is a link to the ship info

Here are a few of the pictures, most of you who read my blog know who the people are.

    The photos are fabulous! It looks like you all had a wonderful time and made some great memories. We did miss you all. I missed my daily hugs from the kiddos at school.

About Me

TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives. Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old. Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
