Current mood:  breezy
Well, I haven't blogged in awhile. I've been trying to get everything ready for Elizabeth and Will's trips to Europe. There is still a lot to be done. Will leaves this Friday. I am very excited for him, but I am nervous and I am going to miss him so much. 21 days is a long time.
Elizabeth has Dance Camp next week and the entire CMS Dance Team will be at Tennessee Tech most of the week. I am planning on driving her to Cookeville and then Ben and I will continue on to Nashville to visit my parents. Ben wants to stay for awhile down there so I will have to pick Elizabeth back up on the 19th and then take her to the airport for her departure.
I'm hoping to get a lot done at the house while they are gone. Let's face it, it's difficult to get things done when you have 3 kids running around. Ben is looking forward to some fun time with my parents. He loves to help his granddad mow and work in the garden.
I'm thinking of surprising the kids with a beach vacation once they all get back home. (so, I'm in the middle of planning that right now) We have been to some fabulous beaches, but I would like to visit somewhere new. Will has been wanting to visit Atlantis in the Bahamas, but I'm thinking that might be a better fall break vacation. I absolutely love making travel plans. I love to surprise peope, especially my kids. I'm thinking maybe I won't even tell them where we are going and just let it be a surprise when we get there.
I'm sure it won't hold a candle to their european experiences, but I will try. I'm thinking of planning a trip to europe for next year for all of us. I would love to bring my parents too. I want to visit Wales, England, Scotland and Ireland. My dream would be for us to stay at Anselhampton House in Dorsetshire. It was the home of one of our ancestors, William Robert Martyn. That would mean a lot to my dad. :)
I'm missing my Jason, but I'm so glad he was able to come up to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg and spend a little time with us at the cabin. We haven't had many opportunities like that but I think the kids really like him and are getting used to the idea. He has been gone since Monday and it is killing me not to see him. But, I think it will just make it even better when we do see each other. At least we can talk every day and text. That makes it somewhat bearable. I am very lucky to have this man in my life. I don't doubt his feelings for me, how could I? I can feel the truth in what he says and I can see it in his eyes. He truly makes me happy and that's what I want for him. I want that man to be happy, he deserves everything good in this life. I miss his face, looking into his eyes, his little devious smile, the feel of his arms around me, the beat of his heart when I rest my face on his chest. I know I am getting sappy, so I will stop. Oh, and I miss his hands. I love his hands. lol
Well, I suppose I should log off of this because I have a LOT to do. I hope everyone is having a fabulous summer so far.
