My big girl bed :)

Yesterday we (Kent and I) got a new bed.  We were sleeping in a queen size bed but when all the kids got in it with us, there was just no room for us all to lay comfortably.  And the kids get in the bed with us every morning to snuggle and watch TV before we all start our day.  So we decided to get a king size bed.  The whole bed itself is huge.  And I'm not talking the mattress either.  The headboard is just ginormous.  It's taller than me.  I like it though.  After they brought it and set it up we put the kids down for a nap and then we took a nap on our bed to break it in.  Kent was thrilled.  Even Nathan enjoyed a nap in it yesterday.  Jon Kent keeps telling me, "Thank you for getting your new big bed.  It's pretty."  LOL 

According to our "We're Going to the Beach in _ days" countdown, we have 8 more days until we pack up and head out.  The kids are still talking about it all the time and enjoy taking a sticker off every day.  They finally got the concept that they can't take all the stickers off in one day and get to go to the beach.  It just doesn't work that way.  I've still got a lot of planning to do before we go.  I've got to finish our packing lists.  I'm afraid I'll forget something really important.  And deciding what to take and what not to take..  I've been working on the packing list for over a week now.  I'm such a dork.
