Final preparations (T minus 12 hours give or take)

We dropped Ben off at his ““spa””. He should have a fantastic time—he has a big yard, a swimming pool, and 5 playmates (not including the two large, amazing parrots.) He’s going to have such a good time; we’re worried he will be disappointed when we come home.

We were up until about 3 am finishing our packing. We had a hard time whittling down our packing. There was also a lot of preparation for our guests, the Lacey family. Since Ben was off on holiday, we had Max there to welcome them.

Laurie put together a welcome basket for the Laceys as well.

We set up the exercise room with our Aerobed, there is our room of course, Laurie’s office with a double bed, and the sleeper couch.

With packing complete, time to grab some sleep!
