Only Two More Months
We leave for our vacation two months from today! The women that are going on the vacation met today to talk about the things we need, the things that have been bought and the meal planning.
We are going with four other families and we are staying in a beach house for a week. I can’t wait, obviously!
Why did the women meet and not the men too? Well, because the women know what we are talking about and remember the details, the men don’t!! LOL!
My sister-in-law and her husband are just fantastic people. They are the ones who booked the vacation, paid for the house for the week and are footing a very hefty part of the bill as far as food and supplies. We were lucky enough to be asked to go along and I can’t quite express how appreciative we are for that.
Our kids have never been on a vacation. Yes, you read that right. Other than going camping for a weekend every summer with my side of the family, they have never been on a family vacation. They have never seen the ocean or been to a beach. This is another reason why I am so thankful for this opportunity.
Another great thing coming? My husband’s niece has an awesome camera and she offered to take our family picture while on vacation at the beach. Her mom has a great photo printer that can print pictures up to 13×19! What a great thing to have from our first big family vacation. We will also be getting a big group shot with matching outfits like everyone does at the beach…haha! I just cannot wait to go and relax and spend this time with my family. Well, my husband’s family but if there was ever a family who made you feel as if you were one of them, this is it.
Also? I made a list of things to pack and boy, it’s long!! I have a bunch of things to buy before we go too so those days before we leave will be busy.
Thank goodness we are coming home on the Sunday before Memorial day…that means an extra day to rest before work and school!
