WE'RE OFF!

...well, we're supposed to be off--in 5 hours or so. what in the world am I doing up? i don't know really...the car has been packed for 3 hours now, I have a small pile on the living room floor that goes in tomorrow, the bathrooms are cleaned (my big pet peeve before I leave), and all I have to do is load the cooler and vacuum the carpets in the morning (my other pet peeve). I have misplaced my journals which is really irking me so I guess I keep thinking if I sit here longer they will appear. go figure.

before we head out I have to give a little shout-out to the following:

my older sister, for folding upteen loads of laundry today and feeding & rocking my daughter so we could get packed.

my mother, for sending me a much needed email last night after having a crummy, stressful couple of days (our baby sitter quit us...more about that later).

my 3 in-laws, who we are leaving behind to finish the NYR packing so that we can go have a little fun!

my baby sis, because, well, she's just her and we kinda love her! (and she tried to fight the good fight so my hubby could see harry potter at midnight last night but it didn't work)

and my dad-e-o, because it's after midnight here which means it's officially his BIRTHDAY! happy birthday, dad...WE LOVE YOU!

okay, folks...we're off. see you in 3 weeks or so. love to you all...you know how to find me if you need me :)

p.s. corin, did you think I'd forget you? happy birthday to you, too...have a great day!

oh yeah, here are a couple of fun pictures from this past weekend that I'm pretty in love with...
