Opening Ceremonies Mark the Start of Vacation!
The Olympics start tonight. Joe is very excited about this. He's sporting his "Beijing '08 t-shirt"...it's all red with the above logo in black. He ordered it online about a month ago and luckily it arrived yesterday, just in time!
Joe, Laina and I head out for vacation tomorrow which we're all very excited about. Joe and I haven't taken a "real" vacation since before Laina was born between storing up vacation days to use for maternity leave and then putting vacation days toward sick baby/ear infection days, we didn't have many extra days floating around.
We're driving to Rhode Island (via a stop at Grammy & Grampy's house in MA on the way). We'll head to Di's house and hang out there for the day. Laina will spend Saturday through Thursday with Auntie Di, Uncle Tom and Cousin Nik. Joe and I will be staying nearby in a hotel. We are attending the wedding of my college roommate, Carrie and her fiance Alfredo on Sunday evening. Then we'll do fun Newport touristy things like tour some mansions and go shopping. We may drive to Mystic Connecticut. It will be very strange to be apart from Laina for that many days but Joe and I are both looking forward to some down time. Laina will have a great time with Auntie Di who can't wait to get her hands on Laina for that many days.
I'll post some pictures of our vacation when we get back. Keep your fingers crossed for good weather! This rain lately has been crazy!
