It's been a long time coming since Chris and I were serious about taking a Caribbean vacation. A little history: Three years ago I was one key stroke (literally) from booking our Caribbean vacation. I decided to wait on the booking until Chris and I had a chance to talk about trip insurance. That was on a Friday. I left that evening to go to Iowa for the weekend, the next time I had a chance to talk with Chris was Sunday evening. Well, over that weekend I found out I was pregnant with Jackson. Needless to say, our focus turned elsewhere and the vacation would have to wait.
I can't wait any more. Last Friday we booked what we are dubbing our "Second Honeymoon"! We'll be spending 8 days, 7 nights at Couples Swept Away in Negril, Jamaica. This trip is so surreal to me that I woke up Saturday morning and thought it was a dream, no kidding.
Everyone pretty much knows how much I want this trip to happen. However, I'm not sure everyone, including myself, was aware of just how much Chris was looking forward to it. I discovered the scene below when I grabbed a suitcase to start packing for a business trip I'm taking (leaving this Sunday). The suitcase on the right is for my upcoming business trip, the suitcase on the left is the suitcase Chris has started packing for our Second Honeymoon...we don't leave until March 25th.
Neither of us can wait!
