25 Days of Thankful! Just Relax

Day 18: November 18, 2010


Today I am so very thankful that tomorrow is the last day of school for a week, the last day of work for my husband for the next 10 days, that my parents are coming over to watch my dogs and that we are getting lost {perhaps literally} for a few days before Thanksgiving.

Tonight I will pack clothes, snacks and a few things we just cannot do without, like my computer, so we can head to a small island a couple of hours south. I have to pack all of these things because the only way to get to the island is via boat, our car will be parked on shore! This island is small, only 4 houses are on it {I think that's an extreme exaggeration, I'll soon find out}, we will be able to go boating, enjoy the private beach, read, sleep in and the girls can drive the golf cart around and explore. The best part? The owner of the house is a good friend of my husbands and an incredible cook, he's coming along and has told me I am not allowed to do a thing! SCORE!

I am very much looking forward to recharging my battery with my family this week. Now lets just hope we all make it off the island together, you never know someones torch may have to be extinguished!


Be Thankful!

That sounds like an AH-mazing time, Shawn!!! Please take lots of pictures and let us live vicariously through you. Think of all the peeons while your relaxing away in your hammock. Taking a good book I presume?!

WAIT JUST A MINUTE! You didn't ask our permission? Guess you can't go. DARN.

But being the rebel that you are, you're probably still going to go and I will just be sitting here, stalking blogs, and feeling very jealous.
