Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there in f-list land!
Mine was nice...heard from both my kids and received a lovely watch from my hubby. Spent the afternoon with his folks. It was so nice being out in the country. I took my dress with me to their house (they have a full length mirror) and I have to say...it really looks nice on me. :) So, I'm a bit more relaxed now.
Only one more day and then we're off to Florida! I'm not sure how much time I'll have for updating, but I'll do my best. We're taking our camera and will have loads of pics when we get back. I have the majority of the packing finished, we just have to pack the stuff we can't pack until last minute, like hair dryers, soaps, shampoos, etc. We are not taking any chances...we're taking hubby's suit and my dress as a carry on along with a second carry on with a couple of days worth of clothes...just in case.
I wish we knew someone here well enough to have them stop by every day to keep our kitties company...but we are fortunate that one of my friends is going to check in on them every other day to make sure their food and water is full and she is even going to scoop the litter pans...which is awesome of her. (Thanks, Jaki!)
I am really looking forward to seeing the family, but I'm not sure how much of a vacation it will be for us...as we have something scheduled for every night.
Tuesday-Arrive 12:30pm est, do a drive by of the beach and on to my sister's house. I'm hoping to have dinner with my sister and my best friend on this night. (What do you say, Lisa, can you have dinner with me on Tuesday night?)
Wednesday--check into the hotel, then that night, have dinner with my daughter, her fiance and my dad and his wife. Finish by 7:30pm so we can get back to my sister's house in time to see The Amazing Race season finale. Watch that with her then go back to the hotel.
Thursday--day-I think going to my mom's house for a bit then back in time for the rehersal on the beach at 5pm and the rehersal dinner after and then my daughter is taking me to one of her favorite night spots called "Howl at the Moon" (Lisa, you're invited to come with us too).
Friday--wedding day. Morning I'm going with my daughter to watch her get her hair done, I'm going to try to find a hairdresser to style my hair because I think it'll come out better (and hers can't do it), and in the afternoon after I get ready, I'll be with my daughter doing her make up. Hubby and I are riding with the wedding party in the limo. Then it's the wedding and reception.
Saturday is the only unsure day. Either my aunt or my sister is having the family over for a get together after the wedding.
Sunday is leaving Florida early in the morning and getting back to Tennessee by 9:30am CST then Monday is back to work.
I think we'll need a vaction to recover from our vacation...what do you think?
