Getting Away!!!

Woo Hoo...We are going to Tampa Florida for two weeks. We leave this Saturday May 3rd and come back on the 17th. I really want to get away. One, it coincides with Mothers day... ... Mothers day has always been that day where I feel like being left alone to eat ice cream, Reese's cups, and nap all day long. Knowing if I don't want to I don't have to laugh, smile, or put on a fake happy face this year is a relief. This year is the first one since loosing my mother and the first one where I know I will never be a mother, its a reminder of what I have given up. So, I think it will be a good day to be lounging in the pool relaxing and a great day for Tim to give me a really great gift... Tee Hee Hee... He is amazing, he always gives me a great gift and an even better card. Last year he gave me a beautiful card from our baby to be and a gorgeous diamond mother and child necklace. Don't worry, I am actually laughing at this right now. He also bought me a Gucci diaper bag that I forgot about until just now. oh my... I will be putting that up on ebay when I get home. I think I will hold on to the necklace for a while. It really was and is special to me.

The bad thing is Suz and Matt will not be in town. I told Suz last year that we would look them up next time we came down. The great part is they are in Kazakhstan getting their little girl and boy. I know they aren't reading our blog right now I just hope they feel that I am thinking of them and praying for them always...

So, this week I will be having fun packing and stuff... I am one of those annoying over organized sort of person that is ready days in advance... I could be ready tomorrow.

I haven't told the dogs yet, they and I will be very sad to leave each other. I am looking into bringing Lilly with us. I really don't want to leave her, she is a momma's girl all the way...
