Talking OMG!!! Going to Guatemala!

We got "THE CALL" about pink at 3:30 Friday afternoon. I was so bummed about no news that I didn't pack or do anything to get ready!
That will teach me! I have been at work all weekend and we are flying out Tuesday morning. I am SOOOO excited!!! Have alot to do, but I am so ready.

Hope everyone else gets good news soon, too!
By the way, who else will be there 3/14 thru 3/17? I'm not sure where we are staying yet (our fm books our hotel).
