Me, too.
The past couple of months have been crazy and my tired body and jumbled mind muttered "vacation" and screamed it loudly until I heard. I needed a vacation. A day or two where I could sleep a little and have some down time.
Let's rewind a bit. Andrew was out of town for a week. Cooper took his absence pretty hard this time around. Tired momma + tired child = a week of survival mode. We coped by visiting the pool as often as we could (vitamin D always does the trick) and trying to "go" as much as we could. If we stayed busy it helped. I also coped by entering a world of novels. I think I read about 4 while Andrew was gone.
Andrew came home. Hooray! Oh, wait...you have a huge deadline fast approaching? You mean you won't be home again tonight? You mean you can't go with us to visit our friends this weekend? Andrew added it up...yep, he had been working some 100 hour weeks.
Vacation it was. I convinced Andrew to travel with me to Kentucky for the 4th of July weekend. Just picture it, Andrew...we could have a date night!...we could sleep in!...we can soak up some lovin' from the family and friends!...it's the cheapest place we can run away to!
Away we went. Of the 3 full days we were there, Andrew worked 1 1/2 of them. On the 1/2 day he worked I did nothing. Absolutely nothing. That's why I was there...to do nothing!
The 3 days "vacation" was good for my soul. Spending time with family fills me up. I got to see 2 great movies. I got to go on a date with my love. We got to see our friends, the Greene's. And, of course, Cooper got completely spoiled with lots of love and attention
When we left I told Andrew I could still use a couple of days at the beach all by myself. #kidding #notreally

Due to some wet bottoms from rain, Cooper got to wear this UK shirt one evening.
