Countdown to....

Rest and relaxation....
Romantic getaway....
Sun and sand....
and separation from my kids.

In just over 3 weeks Patrick and I will be off to Jamaica. We're flying Grandma Ballard here to watch the girls for the first half of our trip and then
Nona (Mooney) will have the girls for the second half. Bridget couldn't be more thrilled to have some time with her grandmas! I am a little bit nervous about leaving Avery since she is just shy of 2 years old and won't really understand where we went. This is the longest separation we've had from our girls so I'm sure I will be a bawl-baby leaving them; nevertheless, this is a much needed getaway for hubby and me and we're happy to be able to have some time together just the two of us!


A couple of pictures of the resort we're staying at....

Have a great trip! I can't wait to see the pictures when you get back. Don't spend the whole vacation pining for your kids. They'll be fine. We left Spencer for a week and went on a cruise when he was 9 months old (Julianne was 3) they survived. Grandma is a great substitute for mom. Enjoy!
