We've had a week of vacation scheduled for next week since the beginning of the year. No real plans exactly, just the pressure from upper management to have the week scheduled on the calendar. Most of you know, we haven't been traveling much the last couple of years as we've been focused mainly on saving money for our big "vacation to China." All summer long though, I've really had the wild hair to just get out of town for a few days. It didn't have to be anywhere fabulous...I would have even been happy to just go down to the coast.
After thinking about it, we decided we'd just go ahead and use T's hotel reward points and buy a tank of gas. Then we kept reading all the rumors about baby referrals possibly happening...possibly not happening and thought maybe we should just stay home. Upon rethinking it for about the upteenth time. We're going! We don't want to put our life on hold while waiting.
We're going to drive out to New Orleans for a few days. It's not Mardi Gras time, but I've never been there so we thought it would be fun to do something new. After seeing the sights and eating some great food, T will be headed home a few days earlier for a work meeting that he doesn't want to miss and I'm going to visit my extended family in Mississippi.
Vacay, here we come!
