It has been a really hard and stressful few weeks and can't wait to get away. I know this will be the perfect cure to all that work stress that I have had lately. On top of that I will be going with two of my dearest friends who I consider my sisters. We have made it a tradition to go once a year to the beach and relax and enjoy the sites. My hubby is so wonderful and has no problem letting me get away. I tell him he needs a get away week end for himself and hopefully he will be able to do that soon. I will miss some family adventures with my hubby's brother coming to visit but since this was planned way before I knew of his visit my sweet hubby said go on don't worry about it. It will give him a chance to catch up with the things that have been happening with our family. I will get a chance to spend some time with them when I get back and so looking forward to that. If your traveling over the holiday weekend be careful and have a wonderful time. One reason the Ocean is one of my favorite places to go is I feel it gives me some time with God that I really truly need. Don't get me wrong I have my time daily but there is something special about seeing the deep and wide OCEAN that makes me feel closer to God. Think about it how can you not believe there is a God when you see His beautiful world and all the nature that He created.
