Guess Where We Are Going

Well most everyone knows now but it is still pretty exciting. Next Thanksgiving we will be spending a week at the beach in the beach houses. I was on the phone at 0800 this morning to get our reservations and at first they were only going to make it for one day because you can only make the reservations one year out and today will be the Sunday before Thanksgiving next year. I asked Paul (my new favorite person) if there was anything else we could do to ensure we would get the whole week for two of the beach houses. He wasn't sure what to do but said he would ask his supervisor when she got in and call me back. He did call me back and we were able to get the full week today. Certainly made my day and I don't have to call back everyday to get the whole week. Now we just have to wait a year but we have a lot planned already between now and then.

By this time we were actually in the parking lot at BJ's, thank goodness for cell phones. Had already done our shopping there and were heading for Publix and then it was home.

Made another batch of cookies, these are oatmeal-craisin-chocolate chip. Will probably do the peanut butter cookies tomorrow. This is when I'm really glad we have a big freezer and always have room for everything.

Dan got a coat of sealer on the blue chair, hope to have that one done this week.

Not much else going on, just getting ready for Thanksgiving and the Cookie Party. I have a zillion lists for things I need to get done.

We are very excited. The only thing that would make it better would be if David and Kathi were able to be there.

Would there be enough room for us?

Lauri said...

Of course there would be room!!! We would love to have you visit.

We have talked and would love to come down but as you know, we have to wait and see what the Navy is going to do with us. We have put it down on our calendar for next year so fingers crossed and everything goes according to plan, we hope to be there.

Forgot to ask what are the dates!

Lauri said...

We will be checking in on Nov 22 and out on the 29th. Can't wait. The Navy better cooperate with us on this one.

Kat said...

We are hoping so. But we could also be PCSing at that time. You know that the Navy never cooperates.
