Packed

and ready to hit the "hopefully" friendly sky. I haven't flown in almost 12 years, alot has changed in the airline world since then. I packed all my clothes into a smaller suitcase and put it inside the larger suitcase along with all my scrapping tools that are a must this week. I even weighed the packed bag to make sure I wasn't over the weight limit. 10 pounds shy of the limit, and coming home I will have 2 bags! That means I can fulfill my shopping list.

We are going to be hitting the Bazzill Warehouse tomorrow as well as a scrapbook store that from what I hear is amazing. I have a list of wants from bazzill as there are some things that I find myself wishing I had when I am scrapping and then forgetting when I go to order. Plus I would lots rather see something in person than online.

I have to make sure and get everyone something while I am gone. I don't know where we will be going for that part of the required trip, but since I have never been to Phoenix before, and only have really tomorrow and Thursday morning to see anything I think we will be busy!

Last week Will and I went to BG and picked up Em's Christmas gift. He had some $$ off at Best Buy and so we went and got what she has been asking for. That pretty much does it for the girls. They are only getting one "big" item and then some little things. Books are always on the list and so far they both have a pretty substantial list. Books are something that we don't mind buying for them though.

I broke down last week and started reading Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. I gobbled it up in a day and then read New Moon. Started Eclipse this morning and plan on taking it with me on the plane. I know I won't have anytime to read while I am there so the one book should be enough. Tori is thrilled that I am reading the series and enjoying it. She made sure that Breaking Dawn is on my bedside table waiting for me.

Well better get off here and get some housework done. I figure if I do it now, I won't have to leave the dreaded LIST behind for the kids to get too. Until next week!
