So today Cullen and I are leaving to spend a week in the great state of North Carolina.  This trip means so much to me on so many levels. First we’ll be heading to Charlotte, NC to attend the comic book convention HeroesCon.  This will be our 3 year attending and although I’m not a big fan of the city of Charlotte, I do enjoy going to the convention. Cullen has some wonderful friends in the comic book industry and they’ve always made me feel just as welcome. (with the exception of one, but, we won’t go there.) I think my biggest complaint with Charlotte is the food available around the convention. We’ve had bad luck at different restaurants on both trips. I’m hoping the 3rd times a charm and we’ll have nothing but great service and great food this time. I’m really hoping Laura Samnee doesn’t order the bacon free grilled cheese sandwich again. Poor girl orderd one last year at a Shoneys we went too, they brought it out with bacon, she asked for a new sandwich, they brought her back the same sandwich with flecks of bacon still stuck in the cheese.  It seriously was the worst service I’ve ever recieved in my life.  But like I said this years going to be different, I have faith.

After the convention we’re headed to Broadway, NC to spend a few days with Cullen’s family. I have to say, I am so blessed, I have the best in laws in the world. I absolutely adore my Mother and Father in law. They’ve always made me feel right at home.  I’m most excited that when we get to Broadway, we’re going to surprise Cullen’s parents with the news and very first pictures of their new grandson.  We decided since we’re getting to his parents house on Father’s Day that we would frame pictures of Jackson and give them to his Dad for Father’s Day and surprise them both with the news. I can’t wait to share this with them. I know they’re going to be so excited. 

Once we get back from  NC I’ll share more info about Jackson here on my blog. I just didn’t want everyone else to know everything we know about Jackson until we had a chance to share all the news with all the grandparents.  I can’t wait to share it here. He has some of the cutest little characteristics.  We’re hoping for an update with new pictures sometime in the future. Hopefully the near future.

Until then, I think we have his pictures posted anywhere and everywhere we can.  We’re so proud.  He’s just perfect.

Well enough chattering, time to close this laptop up, pack it away and head to the east coast !!!!
