I'm Getting Excited!

Today will be busy, busy, busy in preparation for this upcoming weekend and I've got a to-do list a mile long.

My hubby, handsome son, and I will be flying out early Friday morning to Phoenix for Parent's Weekend at Arizona State. We went last year and had a great time. We are all excited, but especially Courtney! She's excited because this year my parents and her brother are coming too. They've never been to Phoenix and she's excited to show off her new apartment and her school campus to them.

My parents are flying in today from Colorado and will get to spend some alone time with her before we get there on Friday. Saturday I'm sure Courtney will want to give them a campus tour and I know we'll hit up the fabulous bookstore for more t-shirts. Saturday night we'll be going to a tailgate party and then to the ASU football game. These college football games are a blast. I love watching the cute college kids all decked out in their school colors, cheering for their school. Most of all, I love watching Courtney and seeing her in this new adventure. I took loads of pictures last year so be prepared!

I will be working tomorrow so I've only got today to get packed and finish my errands. First things first, pack the Halloween goodie bags...those college girls are waiting for them!

(Bren and Lene...I'll be there until Tuesday. Maybe we can get together Sunday night for dessert or sometime Monday?)
