Day 2298 | Hello, Tampa

Look at me at an airport! Without children in tow! Can you believe it? Neither can I. I guess that’s why until I boarded the plane I didn’t let myself actually accept that the trip was happening. I didn’t even pack until last night/this morning. That’s never my traveling strategy—but living/learning through a pandemic will do that to a person. 

This trip is 2.5 years in the making. No joke. I had the dream of attending a production of Dear Evan Hansen with my nieces pre-Covid down in Madison. Fast forward all those 30+ months and we’re finally going to see it…in Tampa. Three nieces, two sister in-laws, my mom, and I are all together for a little girls weekend with hopes of soaking in some sunshine, laughing a lot, and singing along (in our heads, of course) to a musical that I’ve been listening to on repeat for years and years. I have no doubt that my high expectations will be met and then some!!

I’m taking a bit of a blog-break as I disconnect over the next few days. I’ll be back with photos to share as soon as I can.
