buenos dias!

it stunk big time to set an alarm last night. we moved to 9am church today, which, by the way, i think is cruel and unsual, but that's a soap box for another time. the point is, i haven't set an alarm for two weeks - TWO weeks! and it's been glorious. i have been relishing every minute of our two week break from school, homework, dance, piano, guitar, violin, scouts, mutual, blah blah blah. the best part is that rich has even been home from work so we've been hanging out in our pjs a lot. just enjoying board games and movies and a lot of competative wii time. we've also been very productive on a couple of house projects because nothing else is pressing for our time.

so this morning, when the alarm went off before the sun was up, i'll be honest, i felt a little ripped off. i shouldn't have to wake up early on the last day of my vacation right? to add to the confusion, the alarm was somehow set on a spanish station and for a few minutes i was dreaming about eating lunch at bajio. it's not a good thing to wake up thinking about yummy food on fast sunday.


so, the days of getting an extra hour of sleep in the morning, cleaning closests, getting caught up on the laundry, lounging in pjs and having no schedule what-so-ever are over. tomorrow morning i'll officially be back in the saddle again. and even though having a routine will feel kind of nice, i'm sure i'll be dragging my feet the whole way. especially when i send rich out the door to work and ethan looks at me as if to say, "where did everybody go?"

EEWWW- 9:00 am you already know how I feel about this... but I have to admit, it'll be easier with Ethan once you get used to it.
dreaming about bajio on a sunday morning. that's just cruel. I love that place.

Oh Wende, you are so funny! I always enjoy your sense of humor. But I can relate-- I was sad for Monday to come, and I don't even have kids in real school yet!

Ok 9:00 church is the worst! It's sooo hard to wake up! My new ward starts at 2:00 PM now and even though it's so late, I'm looking forward to sleeping in as long as I want on Sunday mornings.
P.S. I love that you starting dreaming about bajio! Too funny!
