That sounds good Robin, that is all I am taking is a hair dryer, but Samantha will also take her hair straighener (sp).
I also wanted to wish everyone a Happy Mother's Day! I am going to MI this weekend, no kids around, but I did receive flowers from Stephen today at work and yes ladies I did cry, LOL Enjoy your day! Talk to you soon!

I do have a transformer so we are good to go on that. Our plugs are from AU, hope it works. LOL

We have old adapters I guess Stephen showed us his it has three round prongs but ours has two so Stephen is going to send us one so we can us it in Paris, he says he pays around 50cents from the NEX. Carrie the bags are coming out this week, I just go the summer clothes out. I also picked up the Euros I ordered from the bank, we get into Paris so early we just wanted to have a little money one us. Carrie did I tell you that Capital One charges not fee to convent there money so we did get a Capital One card my other cards charge 3%.
Everyone have a great day!

Hi, how is everyone?

Ok, I will look for them. LOL That would be so cool Robin if I met them, I could say I know Robin and she is a great person and a great help. Waterfront how nice is that!!!

Robin that is a cool story. How nice of you and your husband. I bet he was so thankful to you both. I went to Gurnee Mills this weekend it is right next to Great Lake, so there are hundreds of sailors, you could tell the ones who just PIR they were with their families. I shook everyone hands and thank them. Well I just about had the whole mall crying. They all had many questions so I did the best I could to answer all of there questions. They just smiled from ear to ear for me stopping them and thanking them and so did the parents. My girlfriend was crying from the first thank you she had to walk away. LOL They all looked so handsome, I wore my Navy shirt so they all knew I belonged with them. So I would also so whatever I could for a sailor that is for sure.
Girls I am counting down on my trip, I just cannot wait to see my sailor!!!!! And maybe Carrie's sailors.
Robin do you have any friends I want to visit. LOL
Robin, he would love anything for dinner, maybe grill, he will just love the company. Take some pictures if you can.

Well work comes first! Well Stephen has her number so I am sure we can meet up somewhere. Does Amber know of any places to stay in Rome? I could ask Stephen he has been there many time and has stayed there. I have to get my tripon here so you can see what we have plan and what hotels are staying in, I just have been so busy lately. How long will she be on nights?
