Since my DH is deploying to Iraq on Friday, I have decided to go "home" to FL earlier than I had originally planned!! 
This is really helping me deal with him leaving.
Let me fill you in a little....my mom has not seen us since last July and I had a baby girl on November 28th. She couldn't come up to see us at that time because she has a strange fear of flying. I say strange because she has NEVER BEEN ON A PLANE!!! What is she afraid of??? Well since we live so far away and it is expensive to go home (military pay is pretty bad) we only get to see our family once a year for a short time. This year I decided to go for the whole summer since DH is going to deploy. We are staying with family who will very generously feed us and house us for the entire time.
I have enlisted the aid of my aunt to surprise my mom. Thank you Aunt Iva!!!
I just decided to do this last night (man, it was hard to sleep since I am excited) so all morning I have been on the phone making arrangements for leaving for two months at the spur of the moment. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS!!! I had to change Holly's appointments for her 6mo shots and explain to Remy's school why she will miss the last two weeks. On a side note: Remy is getting out of school on the 24th (I am making her finish out this week) and the last 7 days consist of two half days (what is the point of going to school for only 2 hours?!), a field trip, and a picnic day. So she is technically only missing 3 days of real school. I also had to find someone to take care of our cat and dog, not to mention the mail and the house!!
Now, my mom is expecting us to leave NY for our summer vacation on June 29, but now we are leaving on Monday!! She has NO CLUE of my evil plan. I called her last night to see what hours she was working (I gave her some dumb story about how I wanted to know so I could call her and she bought it
) and I am just gonna sneak up behind her at work and wait until she notices us!! So if any of ya'll are in the Sams Club in Ocala on Tuesday and see a woman screaming and crying please do not be alarmed!! This will make all the times I had to spend opening packages (my mom is a TAPING MANIAC) and listening to whining about us being gone and BLAH BLAH BLAH things my mom does to me worth it!! I have found the perfect revenge and it won't even kill her (hopefully).
*sigh* I am now better than her at being evil.
Now I just have to keep blabbermouth Remy away from the phone until we leave so she doesn't warn my mom. Never expect a kindergartener to be your ally, they will sell you out!! Remy did this when we found out I was pregnant! Wish me luck!!!

I personally hate surprises, my family knows to never do things like that to me.
