So, it’s really here. For months—maybe even years?—we’ve waited for this day, this trip. We’re packing stuff up now, getting the house ready to leave. The kids are ready for their vacation, too. A whole 8 days at Grandma & Grandpa’s!!
And for us? Eight beautiful days at a resort on the Pacific Ocean near Monterey, CA… without our kids!
Now THAT’S an anniversary present! 🙂
We leave Buffalo tomorrow at 8am local time, and get to the San Jose airport around 12:30 local time. We’ll find our rental car and drive about an hour or so to the coast. After checking in, and checking out our place, getting settled, etc… we’ll head BACK to SJ for the evening to get some dinner, and get a copy of LEOPARD at the local Apple Store! 🙂 (First 500 people at the store get free t-shirts! We’re so there!)
We’ll just be spending time together, celebrating 10 years of marriage, and just enjoying each other’s company. Walks on the beach, walks through town, nice dinners… QUIET days. 🙂 Can’t wait. Really can’t wait.
I may post some here during the week, or I may not. 🙂 Depends on what Jen is doing. This week, I’m totally with her, and I don’t want to miss any of that!
I will definitely miss our kids. I can tell already. But I can’t wait to have 8 uninterrupted days with my wife. I love her more now than ever before (which was already a lot!) and can’t wait to just be with her!
(Can you tell?) 🙂
We will also get to visit with some friends from college who live out that way, so that will be a huge bonus, too.
And it all starts very, VERY soon! So…
Gotta go! 🙂
