Honey, I'm home.

Yep, after a week of traveling we have made it back to Northern, VA. We left last Monday at 11:30am. We were supposed to leave at 9am. Needless to say I was pissy. At J. For having to work. Snort.

Eleven hours later we end up in Lexington, KY at a resort that is actually quite nice. We eat dinner at midnight. Then crash. My Nana was very glad to see us & in fact, I slept in her room. (Because J & I aren't married...)

The next day we woke up late & lounged by the pool. J & I drank frosty beverages at the bar & just relaxed. Then we took Nana to dinner at the Olive Garden (her favorite) & put the kids to bed for a CRAZY night at the hotel bar. Bourbon flights, included.

Hungover like shit we get up & drive to Nashville, TN with our children. That was only a 4 hour trip. We get there in time for drinks & then Uncle B & Aunt N take us to putt putt golf/go cart racing. Then on to an awesome Mexican dinner complete with Sangria. A couple bottles of wine later we hit the hay...

Then we drive 2 more hours the next day to PARADISE. They have a lake house in Waverly, TN. It's up on a mountain that overlooks the amazing scenery. We were in heaven! We did fishing, tubing, 4 wheelings, shot guns, swam & drank our asses off... I've never been more exhausted OR had a better trip. The kids were great!

We left on Saturday & headed back to VA. Saturday night we stopped in Morristown, TN. We slept & then finished our drive at 8 hours back to Reston. We got home last night around 8pm.

Needless to say we are still exhausted, but in a good "warm fuzzy" kind of way.

Sigh.

I want to go back.
