That's just awful on your Mom's shirt! I hope that's the worst that happens for the trip.
BTW - It was great meeting you (twice) last week! Dylan took quite the liking to you.

Update 6/19



Single Digits!!!!!!

I can't Believe it is down to Single Digits for a trip that went from a "I wish" to "maybe" to "if it works out" to We are leaving in less then 9 days I want to go right now!!! Yes Right Now would be perfect but ok so we have to wait 9 days but there could be worse things to wait for right? A Root Canal would be a definite WAIT but seriously how am I going to fill 9 days in with things to do????????

Okay well I have a ton of things I could be doing but I'm sure the whole packing thing will get done a few hours before leaving, and then there is the fact that I have a Passporter Meet or two in the works for this week, then I have at least 3 harvest days between now and the day we leave on Farm Town my new found addiction on Facebook (please tell me I'm not the only addict here???)

But the best part is that I have already gotten my Vacation Hair Cut, I have colored and highlighted my hair so the sun will lighten it perfectly! I also have finished my application for FASFA as I am going back to College and had to do that before we left!! Oh and I booked a Suprise trip to CT/MA for about 2 weeks after I get home from this trip!!WHOOOHOOOO!!!

So I have plenty to do, plenty done, and I have gotten my Sunglasses, my scarf, my Shirt, my flip flops, and my beach towel all in one pile so I can use them on this trip so we are all set there.

I printed out the Hotel Confirmation, the Car Rental Reservation, the Coupon for the Car Rental. We bought a Beach Umbrella, we have 2 coolers and a lunch bag for the beach and we are pretty much set on items for the trip just have to pack it all!

So Since I am in a Festive Mood and Since I wouldn't want anyone dying of thirst here Let me supply ya'll with a few Frosty Beverages and well...some Sampler Platters of Snacks!





I hope you all enjoy your snack and I will update you before I leave in 9 days!!!!! with how the packing goes and of any changes that may occur (none as of now but that is subject to change )

Great plans, Amy. The trip will be here before you know it. College is a great idea--is there a local campus?

Another Small Update 6/20

Well we are down to 8 DAYS!!!! and well very early this Morning I was able to get my last birthday gift which was a Visa Gift Card which I put towards the last thing I was hoping to have for our trip but thought it wouldn't happen. What you ask???

Well a new Point and Shoot Camera. I have been frustrated with the P&S Camera we have its nice enough but it eats batteries, and the photos are getting grainy which is just showing the camera's age even though its 8mpx its an older camera (one of the first to come out with that many mpx) and So I have been eying a Canon Powershot it has Image Stabilization, Continuous Shooting, and its in my Favorite color of GREEN

I got a bundle deal and I paid extra to have it shipped here by June 24th so the camera makes it here by then and is in one piece so that I am not disappointed.

The Bundle I got has the camera, all the cords for computer and tv hookup, wrist strap, cd-rom, lithium Ion battery, the battery charger, Case, and a 2GB memory Card for the camera. I also go it on 5 monthly payments so that we didn't have to outlay the whole amount just before we left.

Here is a photo of it!
