Away we went

By Beth
Oct 25, 2009

Last Thursday night and early Friday morning, I had planned to make it to my computer to let you beautiful people know that I would be disappearing for a bit.  We had decided to visit my sister and her family in Louisville.  This was a planned trip, so you would think that I would have brought it up, but, you know, I didn’t.

Then Friday morning rolled around and I was all like “house must be cleaned, did I pack my toothbrush, did I pack 5 pairs of underwear for each kid even though we’ll be gone for two nights and most importantly…DO I HAVE MY iPHONE CHARGER!?

And then we left.

And I never looked back.  I opened my laptop for about 3 minutes and that was it.  It was a perfect break from my computer and blogging and the everyday.  We ate ridiculous amounts of donuts and skittles and watched tons of TV and both of us rocked our baby bellies with laughter so hard that I’m certain we both peed a little bit on accident.  (or maybe just one of us did…whatever.)

Anyway.  I’m home and I’m glad, but I’m even happier that we packed up and went away for awhile.  We all need that sometimes.

all of us

    I don’t have a super close relationship with either of my sisters, so I love that you and Sarah not only have that, but treasure it.
    Now tell her to move up here so we can all eat Skittles together, okay?

    Sweet picture. Sisters are so fun, aren’t they?

    It is nice to get away and unplug for a bit. We all need to do that.

    Looking forward to seeing more belly shots. :)
