Leaving for Vacation...

Vacation...my favorite word in the English dictionary. Okay, well not my all time favorite but I definitely like the sound of it...well maybe more the meaning of it. :) Blake and I and his fam are packing the bags into the Ford Focus Station wagon (sweet ride....) and leaving for the beach!!!! We'll be making a stop in Alabama to visit Blake's Dad and Stepmom and I seriously can't wait! Getting together with family that we don't get to see very often is always a wonderful experience and spending time with them is never taken for granted. Kim and Steve, here we come!!!! WOOHOO!! Then we leave for the beach somewhere on a little cape in Florida for some rest, relaxation and of course some cocktails.Woohoo again! I'm so freakin' excited about this trip that I'm already dreading the day we have to come back. Unfortunately I'm sorry to announce that I have now come down with some sort of upper respiratory infection ( I think all of Louisville has had this) which includes a fiery earache and a sore on my throat. Oh joy profound...what impeccable timing you have allergies! I just love living in the Ohio Valley. And poor Blake is suffering for a clogged ear which he can't hear out of. We're falling apart over here!!! We'll make the best of it no matter what...you just can't feel that bad laying on the beach. I'm not sure how much I will be able to blog (if any) so I may be M.I.A. on here for a week or so. I'll miss you guys and I'll be in touch with the fam back here in Louisville. Love you guys...signing off...Dana and Blake.
