My work trip to Nashville...

Well, I had been dreading this work trip to Nashville for months. I knew I was going to miss my family & being gone for 4 nights made me very anxious...But, I was lucky to have Barb come & help Richie out so he could have help at night w dinner, bath & bedtime. That made me less anxious thank goodness, but it was a LONG 4 days. I drove to Little Rock on Sunday night after I tucked the kids in so I didn't get to my hotel until midnight. We carpooled to Nashville on Monday & I was so happy to get these pics while I was at my meeting! The pics were the highlights of my days there!















It made me realize how much fun they were having back home! I actually slept so good while being there bc I knew they were in great hands & having such a good time! On my last night there, they had a closing reception & I was able to have a man on stilts make them these balloon characters & he made an Elmo & a monkey in a palm tree. He was so talented & I couldn't wait to get home to give these balloons to the kids! I really was hoping I could make it back before bedtime on Thursday but I didn't...And even though I was off on Friday I had SO much to do to get ready for the AIM walk. I really wanted to just hang out with the kids, but I had a list a mile long to get done. So, I dropped them off late & picked them up early! Ha! And the balloons were a big hit! I missed my precious family so much, but they were totally ok without me. Teachers said they both were great at school & Richie told me that they were good for him too! I was so pleased to hear this! So proud of them! I really appreciated Barb for helping & happy to have that behind me!
