Get me a ticket on an airplane...

Get your ticket to ride.

(TWSS)

I'm booking our Spring Break trip.

We are headed to Phoenix to see my Mom.

I don't know why, but when booking these trips I get so nervous.

Anyone remember me booking our Disney trip last year?

(Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?)

I was sooo flustered when I finally clicked the button to purchase I made an error and had to call the airlines to change our flight.

Because of that change we spent TWO extra days down there that weren't originally planned. Instead of leaving the 26th of December we flew out on Christmas Eve and spent our first ever Christmas away from home.

In the end, it did all turn out wonderfully, ya know minus the fact that soon to be ex was with me.

Anyway. Spring Break starts March 22.

(Hi. My name is Stacie and I am a procrastinator.)

I know, a short three weeks away. I have hem-hawed around about purchasing tickets.

I mean, have you checked the prices for airfare?

Cause I have and it's RIDICULOUS.

Friday as I was leaving work my boss came in and informed me that there will be a bonus this year! WOOOT!!!

Though it's only half of last years, it's still money I didn't have to begin with...

SOOOOO I booked our tickets.

I was so nervous.

I sat so long on the screen waiting to hit "purchase" ticket that I had to start over because I couldn't refresh the page.

Not really sure why I was nervous, but I did it.

PHOENIX, HERE WE COME!

So, anyone want to guest blog? LOL

(total side note, I still haven't thought of a nickname for "friend" but have had some giggles over your suggestions. Click here if you haven't make YOUR suggestion yet.)

  5. Just relax and have an awesome time! I spent a ton of time in Phoenix once for work. If you can get to Sedona, GO! David came down one weekend and we went up and took a Pink Jeep tour. It was fun and beautiful and I know the kids would love it.

  7. OK, I did see the "LOL" after the comment, but I'd guest blog. For real.

    I don't get a vacation until early June! Enjoy your spring break. I'll sit here and be jealous until it's my turn.

  9. It's hard to buy those tickets!! I don't know how many you purchase for, but we have 5. That means at LEAST a thousand bucks every time we take a flight. But then I also find it nerve racking because we purchase in advance. We aren't flying until June, but already have the tickets. What if something happens? Then we dropped a grand for NOTHING!

    Have fun on your trip. :o)
