The Storm Before The Calm



Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?! Well... today is packing day for the big vacation! (Can you tell I'm being a slacker and putting it off?!) :) Actually, I'm doing laundry right now so that I actually have clothes to pack! So I have a few free minutes (a rarity these days- for sure!). But these past few days have been crazy busy with trying to get everything done that I need to before taking off for my family's Sister Retreat (all my sisters and sister-in-laws, plus Mom of course, get together to just have a week of fun, relaxing, learning, girl time). I'm so excited to see my family again and the darling little new babies that have been born!! This is such a treat for me. I'm glad Jim lets me take a week off to go play. He's so good to me. :) Well, I think I'd better get back to all the madness before I run out of time and then wonder where it all went! :) Oh, and these are just some cute pictures of Dixie that Jim took the other day. She's such a cutie. Check out all those chompers! Good thing she doesn't bite! :)

She's so big, and cute as I'm sure you hear all of the time. I haven't seen you guys in forever, hopefully sometime in the near future. Have fun.
