As most of you already know, Dustin and I are going to the Bahamas December 18th - 25th and I CAN'T WAIT!! At this point it's about all I can do to stop myself from checking out sandals.com to see a few pictures of where we'll be staying or look at what the weather is like there. I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas, but worse.
Getting ready for a trip reminds me of how opposites have attracted with us. I think I could walk out the door right now, jump on a plane with just the clothes on my back and not have a care in the world for a week. I have a really hard time with thinking in advance for some reason. Dustin is the exact opposite. He has already checked to make sure we know where our passports are, told me not to buy anymore breakfast muffins for him; he has just enough to last until the trip. (how in the heck do you think of that? I'm lucky to notice when I grab the last one) and I'm sure he has all of our itineraries in a neat binder. God really knows what he was doing. If it wasn't for Dustin, I'm sure I would leave the house with the garage door open, oven on, lights on, curling iron on and space heater on a lot more than I already do.

I am so stinkin' jealous! You will absolutely LoVe Christmas vacations. Everyone is in such good moods down there! Plus you get a great tan in the middle of winter! Dustin definitely got the Ringger genes of planning ahead :) You and Brian are just sooo nice to go along with whatever we say :)
LOL...Emily you and I are so alike. I am sure our house would be burned to ground now if I didn't have Jerome to follow me around and turn things off. It's just not something I really think about! Have a GREAT vacation, I can't wait to see the pictures!
Love you guys!
Yes, I agree with Ginger..Dustin has the Ringger gene for sure. I think his planning is completely appropriate - I think you know...I have the Ringger gene too. Yesterday Carlie was making a list of Christmas presents to buy and was crossing them off as she made sure she had them. Poor Carlie has been cursed with it too! I am so jealous about your vacation...I can feel the hot sun now!
Okay...the countdown is over...I can't wait to see pictures!!
