*Dizzy*

Last night we had my sister's Bachelorette party. A good time was had by all. I am a bit exhausted from not sleeping well and probaly a few too many drinks. =) I am home now, trying to do laundry and figuring out what to pack. I packed the kids last week, so I can't remember what I have packed for them. So, I will dig back through their stuff and add a few more things since we now will be there for 10 days instead of 5. I know AJ will have to do laundry, so I know we can wash there. I am just stumped about what to bring for me. We will be on the beach for 8 days of our trip. So, I want to be comfy but be prepared for cooler temps. Of course, I have to throw in some cute things. You all should see my living room. Puggle sleeping on the clothes I just folded. Suitcase from last night. New suitcase for the trip. Clothes everywhere. Brayden laying in the middle of it, and me completly lacking energy. Keeg is working on half of the homework his teacher had ready for the initial trip. I know we will now have a lot more to bring with us, because I won't have the energy this week with work and running I have to do. Soccer starts Tuesday, so they both will go to practice, then miss a week. The good thing is they will both be tired so they will go to bed so we can be out the door by six to drive 2 1/2 hours north to catch our flight.

It just is crazy to me what we will do when you are so in love. I miss AJ terribly and am so relieved I will be in his arms by the end of the week. He has a flight plan now and should start his journey tomorrow. He told me the day to expect him, and I told him I would be exstatic to see him a day later. I remember now to always plan a day or so behind what they say.

I am so excited to just be on a Marine base. It is just the neatest feeling to be surrounded by Marines and thier families. And, then there is the shopping. No tax on base and all the Marine gear you could ever want!

Well, I have to apologize ahead of time that I might be MIA this week. I will try to update once AJ gets moving. I won't be taking my laptop since we only have internet access for 3 days of our trip. So, you all will have to wait for photos when I return in 2 weeks. Thank you for all of your kind messages this past week. I really have been down in the dumps and starting to see the light at the end of this long tunnel.
