THE ADVENTURE BEGINS....SORT OF.....

The goal of this trip was to take my kids to visit relatives and get a sense of their culture.  It was a great idea at first...until my husband couldn't come....so I said "NO PROBLEM- I will take them myself for 5 WEEKS to two different countries".....Not sure what I was thinking since they are at an age where they fight like rabid dogs.  But never one to shy away from crazy ideas I said WHY NOT?

So the trip is to commence in 12 days.  How do I prepare for this wonderful adventure....by packing you say....oh no... that would be too boring.  I instead decide to severely sprain my ankle and possibly have a small tear in one of the ligaments.  Did I do it hiking in the Smokeys?  Nah.... Did I do it running or jogging or doing any kind of physical sport...oh nay nay....  I did it by wearing 4 inch heeled strapless sandals.  Thought I was being cute and sexy on a date night with the hubby, instead we spent date night at Urgent Care.
Sexy right?

So now here I am in a walking boot and crutches for 2 months.  2 MONTHS- ummmm- I don't have 2 months- I have 12 days!!!!!

2 kids... me with my crutches and walking boot....let the adventure begin!!!
