Well, the story of the 9 others going on this trip really isn't very interesting or exciting but they are some of our favorite people in the world. I wish we had more notice so that my sister and brother-in-law could have joined us but there was no way she could request a summer vacation by the time we made these plans.
My youngest step son, Scott, was by my side for hours at a time while dh was in the hospital last year. He was a rock of strength, asked the doctors the tough questions ("is my father going to die?") and opened up to me about his life during that time (my dh adopted him when he was young, after marrying his mother). He has a wonderful wife and two teenage sons. They originally booked this trip for their summer vacation and asked us to go along. I thought "Punta Cana in July? too hot" and forgot about it for the most part.
My husband's youngest brother, Norm, whose house dh was helping power clean when he fell off of the ladder is a great guy. His wife is a good friend to both me and dh. She's a hairdresser and does my hair (free while it's growing back from chemo). They have three adult (18, 22, and 24 years old) children. Scott asked them about going on the trip and they decided to go. After we learned this we jumped on the band wagon and booked it!
So, we really joined in their vacation and decided it was going to be our honeymoon! They're all fun people and I know we'll have a great time together. This family never fights. Ever. We spent a week in a rental house in Maine two years ago with dh's 6 siblings, spouses, some kids, his Mom, etc and there was never so much as an argument! Dh and I will spend time alone and with the others during the trip. I know it's going to be a great time!
