Some beach.... somewhere...

My Sister Becca and I are going on a day trip to Santa Ana, CA next weekend and I'm so excited! We are both big fans of the beach, and traveling, so it should be a fun day. She was willing to part with her sweet new hubby for a day and I'm greatful to have a Sister who wants to take an adventure with me! Our men will probably get together and go shooting in the desert or something 'guy' like. So I'm sure they are secretly excited for us to go too. ;)

We are all trying to get over being sick. I *think* we are on our way, but don't want to excited yet. Josh picked up and extra shift at work last night, but this will be his last week working nights for a LONG time! I can't tell you how anxious I am to not have to sleep alone in bed several nights a week. It will be an adjustment to actually having him working the same hours every day, but I think it will provide a great base structure to build a real routine for our family.

Because of this long week with kids my sickly children, my Parents gave me a sanity break tonight and I went to Target all by myself. It was so nice to hear lots of children behaving exactly as my children would be, but to know I don't have to do a thing about it! Horrible isn't it?

Does that mean that Josh got a new job? I am glad that things are starting to work out.

Have fun on your trip! I am going to Houston in a few weeks! I can't wait! Us mothers NEED our breaks every now and then. Even if it is just a quiet trip to Target.
