THIS IS GOING TO BE THE LONGEST WEEK EVER!!!

My husband and I are going on our FIRST EVER real vacation.....and without kids.  We married at the very young age of 20, still in college, and with a baby.  We moved to Northwest Arkansas from Mississippi, where we both were born and raised, straight out of college in pursuit of the American Dream.  We have been married for 12 years, and have spent those 12 years trying to "get ahead", meaning very few vacations.  We did take our oldest to Disney World when she was 6, but aside from that, we have pretty much done the camping trip thing (which I am not complaining, because I love to camp), or spent our vacations visiting family since we live 8+ hours for any of them.  Anyway, our first ever trip is coming up next week.  We are going to Topsail, NC, and renting a beach house with 5 other couples.  I am stoked.  I could totally be a professional beach bum.  I love the beach, and being 12+ hours from any beach has really taken its toll on me these past few years.  Have I said how excited I am?  I AM SO EXCITED!  I am not going to lie, I am a little anxious with ben so far from my kids (I have never been away from the twins), but I know everything will be fine and the granparents will love spending some good quality time with them.  Ok. So, yes I am excited about my trip. :)
