Washington

Anyhoo, I will be leaving for Washington soon and I can't wait. I will be meeting my sister-in-law and 3 nephews and 1 niece for the very first time. And My brother Mitch for the second time. I am very lucky to have them and to be able to go and meet them. Not to mention that it will be the first actual vacation for Josh and I. We have to find a sitter for the kiddos which is really sad, I really wanted them to go. :( But it will be nice to have Josh to myself. We are going to go to Seattle, Vancouver and of course every beach possible!!! I am kind of afraid that i will fall in love with the place and want to move there. We shall see. I feel so blessed that we are getting to go, My Husband is amazing and I love him so much!!! It will actually be his first time on a plane, and seeing the ocean. I hope it is everything he has ever dreamed of. Anyway, it cant come soon enough. Josh has been working his tushy off and is in desperate need of r&r. I know it will be a great time. And what makes it better is that my brother Mitch has no idea that we are coming. We are secretly planning the whole trip with my sister-in-law Christina! He is going to freak out when we just show up at his house! Ahhhhh! I can't wait!!!

Change...

So the past few weeks have been rather tough and many things have happened that have made me reevaluate my life. Nothing that i want to brodcast or complain about over the internet. But these things have undoubtedly changed me in many ways. I am more appreciative of my family and my surroundings. My husband who Loves me more than anything and my kids, all of them, who are the center of my universe. Bad things will always happen, but it is what you do with them that makes who who you are and how you will be remembered. I want to be remembered as a great person. A good wife and mother. Nothing else in this life matters.
