10 days & counting


it's almost here ... & we can't wait. on the 15th we will be leaving for AZ!! we have started to get our things in order ... reservations are made in manchester on the 14th (thanks to a free room at the holiday inn & complimentary breakfast & airport shuttle - perks for working for the common man) to save us from a very early morning trip to the airport ... we still have to wake up early - but at least it is not the weeeee hours of the morning with an hour drive ahead of us.
we have our luggage out, a few brand new books hidden away for josie & some of josie's favorite toys have disappeared so when she see's them on the plane ... she will be so happy that she will sit for 5 hours staight :)
the dogs have there room reserved at the kennel & biscuit has his kitty-sitter lined up ... always feel bad about the animals ... but biscuit will get some much needed rest (yeah right ... he is always sleeping!) & the dogs will get to play with all the other dogs at the kennel - so that's fun ... right?
while we are out there dominic & i will be sneaking away for an overnight trip to sedona while josie has a special sleepover with grandmama & grandpapa ... & we are just so excited. we are staying in the same hotel that we stayed in when we got married & have dinner planned at the restaurant we went to for our reception. i'm sure we will be doing a little roaming around the area too - possibly a jeep tour or a quick trip to jerome ... jerome is "a mile-high town with 50 mile views" an old mining town, that turned into a ghost town until hippies & craftsmen settled there in the 60's. a funky little place.
the best part will be hanging with family & relaxing! i can't wait for josie to see everyone & it will be so fun to watch her. the last time mon'oncle p saw her she was only 4 weeks old & ma'taunte kt hasn't gotten to see her yet ... so it is all very exciting!

besides packing & making lists (& losing them & having to start new ones ... as i am famous for) ... just need to print those tickets & we are ready to go!
