on the road

Jennerific and Daweski are going on a road trip! Tonight, after work, we're leaving for my parents house in good old Brantford. This is a VERY LONG drive. With a baby its about 7 hours, without a baby its 5+ or less (depending on who is driving and how heavy their gas peddling foot is. Myself? I have a heavy foot. Daweski, not so much. He is very careful with me in the car. He once said that he has to be because he's toting "precious cargo" AWE ;)

While we were packing things got a bit funny because Daweski started asking things like "do your parents have a pool?" (yes) and "do your parents have a hot tub?" (no) and "will we be able to swim in the Ocean?" (wtf? no! lol. I grew up near a lake but not anywhere near the Ocean. Too funny). Then he admitted that he thought we were going a lot furthter south than we actually are. Poor man. I can understand why he is dying to wear his flip flops. I am too.

On the agenda for our trip are three things we are both very much looking forward to:

1. Dinner with Kim and Brad on Friday night where we get to meet their church community and spend time with my delicious neice Gwen (who is staring in this super adorable video. Click here!) Can't Wait!

2. Dinner with two of my September Mommies - the gorgeously pregnant Jule and the hostess with the mostest Colleen. This is a VIM people, a Very Important Meeting because we will all be meeting each other's boyfriends/fiances/husbands for the first time. There is going to be BBQ and lots of wine involved. So Excited!

3. Sunday morning we are going to Church to see my Mom solo. Since she's in performances and/or recording all week we won't get to spend very much time with her. Dad will be around a lot (and I'm pretty sure he'll be coming with us to Kim & Brads on Friday night) but Mom is going to be the all elusive Cher-ghost who races into the house, eats an English Muffin, then rushes back out again for another performance. Back on point, the reason I am so excited to go to Church is because I really need to talk to God. I am literally going to beg him to intervene on my behalf because my stalker is... well... stalking the shit out of me and I really just want to be left in peace.

So, there you have it! We leave tonight around 4pm and arrive around 11. There won't be much time for blogging so I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend full of family, prayer, chocolate and (hopefully) Turkey or Steak. Man I hope we have Turkey ... with gravy and dumplings ... and crisp broccoli ... and chilled wine...

Happy Easter readers!
