What am I looking forward to?

There are a few things on my schedule that I am looking forward to with much anticipation.

I am attending BlissDom ’11 in a couple of weeks.  I’ve got new outfits and new shoes to wear.  This will be a solo trip with some much-needed downtime from work, spelling words, kids, scouts, laundry, etc.  Sadly, I will miss our Pack’s Pinewood Derby race. 

In February, our family is vacationing in Gatlinburg with another family.  I’m really looking forward to visiting the mountains.  We haven’t been in 6 or 7 years.

In April, hubby and I are driving our daughter to Orlando for an educational conference.  While she is at her conference, we will have an adults only vacation.  Finally,  we will get to check out some of the adults attractions in the area.  I am leaning towards dinner theater and hubby is leaning toward hunting arrow heads. Hmmm.

The kids have spring break in March.  No plans yet, but I am sure we will do something fun, locally.  After all, the beach is only a short drive away.

My daughter has really grown since this picture.  But, the beach looks the same.  The oil spill has been mostly cleaned up.  The local news reports that tar balls are still washing up on the beach, but not too many.  I can’t wait to swim in the gulf this summer.

And lastly, I am looking forward to sewing and doing my hobbies.  I love creating and expressing myself creatively.
