Vacation Time

Every family looks forward to getting away together for a while each year, and mine is no different. We decided last year that we would take a trip to Nashville this year. It was really Rob's idea... he thought that Matt would enjoy it.
Matt has always loved music ,ESPECIALLY country music. Some of his favorite artists include, Reba McEntire, Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and Josh Turner. He is a huge fan of CMT. He can identify county songs after only hearing the first few notes of a song. He is so excited about going to Nashville. Rob's children are as well. Katy is a huge fan of Carrie Underwood as well. We have purchased tickets to the Opry to see Carrie but none of the kids know it yet. The will be sooo suprised.
Matt has been helping me pack today and he can't seem to pack enough. He thinks we "may" need everything. He wanted to pack the tv remote because as he put it "may need". I tried to explain that the hotel would have what we needed and that we only needed to pack our clothes. "Oh", he said and continued to pack objects that would and would not be needed. He is truly so much help to me. He brightens my day each and everyday.
We will be leaving early in the am, and I am sure it will be difficult to get Matt to go to sleep tonight with all the anticipation that I am sure he is feeling.
Matt and I will try to update some while we are gone. Hope everyone who may be going on vacation and those who have already gone and returned home had and will have a great time and a safe trip. Please say a prayer that my family will as well.
