only 2.5 weeks until I start my vacation!

For anyone who doesn't already know, my hubby has been away at military training for a while, and will be gone for quite some time yet

BUT

I am taking the kiddos on vacation up to see him! That's right, driving 12 hours with 3 kids to visit the Hubby!!!! A long drive to be sure, but worth it - we all miss him so much. The best news is that even though he is working most of the week, we will be able to stay right with him in his mini-suite and therefore maximize our family time!!!! He tells me there is lots to do on base, and we are making plans to keep active with the kids. He has a kitchenette (no oven) so we should be able to make several meals in his room, keeping things healthy and able to please everyone.

For right now I'm just trying to stay on track with nutrition and exercise, and trying to not let stress get to me or overwork myself. For me, that means going to martial arts classes and running, and keeping lots of kids very busy during the day.
