Here we Go!

So after weeks of anticipation, G.J. and I finally get a break----sort of. We are leaving the kids with my mom for Thursday and Friday and headed out to the city. We have a lot of shopping to do. I got some birthday money, and unlike what I have done in the past, I am going to actually spend EVERY cent of it on me. In years past, I usually forget myself and buy stuff for the kids instead. After looking at their closet's compared to mine, I decided there are no more excuses. I am getting me some stuff for my birthday with the money G.J's parents and my parents gave me no matter what. My brother got me a gift certificate for a massage, so I finally get to have that done. We are going to eat at The Melting Pot, which we have been wanting to do forever. G.J. got tickets to the Jazz game for his birthday. They are playing the Laker's, so it should be exciting. We are then staying at the Anniversary Inn, something we have wanted to do forever too. Our anniversary isn't until May 13th, but we figured we don't get away enough, so we might as well celebrate while we can. Friday morning G.J. is going to have his life changed FOREVER...lol, j/k that sounded intense didn't it. He is finally getting Lasik Eye Surgery. I am so excited for him. He has incredibly bad/blind eyes. His eyes are allergic to contact lenses, and so he has to have big thick glasses. I can't wait until he has the chance to see well like the rest of the world! He deserves it. After that, we have a gift card to Costco to use, that will be lots of fun...for me at least. So, wish us luck. It is going to be a whirlwind trip. We never get away, let alone get away without the kids. Even further than that, most of the things we are doing have already been paid for with gift cards, that makes it even better! So we are having a birthday, anniversary, shopping, eating, gaming, staying, surgery, etc.etc.etc. type of a trip,-sounds tiring to me, but I am excited. It sure seems that the kids have been naughty today. I think it is actually me so excited to have a little time alone, that I am being impatient with them. Well, have a good day, weekend, and Easter everyone! Stay tuned for pictures of our trip, if I even get a chance to take any!
