I'll give you a hint

Okay, I can't stand it anymore.

I'm going to...

SOUTH AFRICA!

Sam's parents are on a mission for the LDS church. They are serving in the Cape Town, So. Africa mission. Sam's sister Karen was planning on going to see them in December. She wasn't crazy about doing the 27 hour flight alone so I so kindly offered to go with her. I didn't think that it would really work out because it is a very expensive flight, but the other day Sam's mom called me and told me that she had just talked to Sam and that he said I was going to go. WHAT?!! Uhhhh, okay! Of course it is understood that this counts as my birthday, anniversary and Christmas presents for the rest of my life, but I am sooo exited. A little nervous, but sooo exited!

I'm sure that there will be many more posts on this subject, but for now that's it. I just wanted to share my exiting news.

Don't be a hater!

Seriously, that is awesome. One of two things: 1. You have been terrible and irritable with Sam and he can't wait to ship you off to the furthest place possible or 2. You are such an amazing wife and mother that he just couldn't bear not treating you to such luxuries. I'm guessing two!!!! You deserve it!
