a week without a husband.

andy is leaving today for an entire week and to say that i am depressed and emotional would be the greatest understatement. i have shed tears over this day for the past week and a half. pathetic? i think not! i love him so and can not wrap my little mind around him being away from me for an entire week. . . 7 WHOLE days is a very long time in newlywed world.
every fall andy, his dad and a few other men head to craig, colorado for their annual elk hunt. it is a trip that he looks forward to and talks about all throughout the year. it is also a trip that requires intense preparation. he has been watching elk hunting dvds for the past 6 months, mastering elk calls (which is hysterical to listen to) and packing the warmest clothes known to man. wives prepare food for their sweet hunters to eat. . . i am crossing my fingers that my chicken spaghetti and ziplocks full of blueberry muffins will not cause anytype of tummy problems. honestly, i am so excited that the time has come because i know how he looks so forward to this trip. . . but goodness how i will miss him!
so i figured there was no time like the present to dip my sweet little toes into this blog world. i have been telling andy for weeks that i must start a blog and here i am people! so keep checking in because while the husband's away this mouse will post everyday.
