I am so excited

We bought plane tickets yesterday to go home this summer and I am So SO excited. We already have lots of stuff planned. My sister even said something about getting married while we are there!! Wouldn't that be awesome if we got to be there?!!

So while I am so excited about going home this summer I have to work on packing for our trip to Tokyo next week. We leave on Sunday!! I already have Wendy's stuff all packed for the kennel and we drop her off tomorrow. I picked out all of our clothes and what not and folded it nicely so all I have to do is put it in the suitcase and finish up with last minute stuff Sunday morning after we finish getting ready. I cannot believe it is Friday already!! Whew

Oh, I just finished a really great book a little while ago. It is called The Honk and Holler Opening Soon. It was written by the same author that wrote Where the Heart Is. I thought it was just as sweet as her other book. I am really glad I ended up buying it. Sometimes when I am buying a book on amazon I start looking at the recommended books they list for you based on what you are buying and I end up buying the recommended books. That is how I found and bought this one and I am glad.

Well, I better get a start on dinner. I will blog if I get a chance while we are in Tokyo since we are taking our laptop and we have dial up in our room.

P.S. with my excitement over going home I decided to post a photo of the last time we were home together... February 2005!!

It has been awhile

It has been a while since my last entry.  Not much has been happening here.  Dave has been in Texas since June 3rd.  He will return this Sunday.  He had to go to seven level school with little notice.  It was quite an ordeal. Becky drove to Texas with Marc and Ella to visit with him this past weekend.  I am guessing that Dave probably had a great time. 

I have  hardly done a thing since he has been gone.  No need to cook.  I have done a little bit of scrapbooking.  My book is at 76 pages so far.  At what point is it excessive?  I might need to have volumes, maybe childhood in one book and teenage years in another. I hope to get it done this week.  I bet I can do it.  Not a lot left to do. 

I started a new book this weekend.  One Thousand White Women by Jim Fergus.  Man, is it GOOD!!!  I have been trying to pace myself but I can hardly put it down.  I don't want to be bored the rest of the week!!   I would highly recommend this book.  Yippie I love the feeling I have when I know there is a really good book on my nightstand waiting for me.  LOLOLOLOL

Well,  not much else to say.
