a lil translation help, please - 10-27-2008, 09:26 PM

Ok, I think this is saying something about my vacation?

じゃ、すてきな休日を過ごしてね

Here's what I got myself, although I could be totally wrong...

すてきな休日 - fantastic vacation
過 - pass/elapse

and then I just have no idea about the end...
Thanks for any help!

The end is 過ごす which means "to have" in this sentence, but "to have" is not a good definition because it really means "to go through" sort of.

The verb is is in the te form which means a friendly command in this sentence. Ne is just to add to the friendliness and not make it sound like a hard command.
