I'm Ready For Vacation!

Things have slowed down at work, the weather is warm, the school year is ending this week, and I am ready for a vacation!!!

We have two family trips planned for this summer: first is our pilgrimage back to Chicago! It's more of a mini-vacation, but I'm so excited about taking the boys to Wrigley Field for a game, visiting some museums, going to visit the town we lived in when the boys were born, and going to my home town, Naperville.

Than, the BIG vacation is the last week of summer. This will be our fourth year going to the Outer Banks of N.C. (OBX)! It is one of the most enjoyable family vacations ever! We rent a beach house(click on photo for tour) with some friends of ours, and we literally hang out at the beach for a week straight. No phones, no watches, no sense of time, just enjoying each other. We eat when we're hungry, sleep when we're tired, and play the rest of the time. I could totally be a Beach Bum!

Well, I just had to write about it to motivate me to keep up the work, cause vacation is around the corner!!! Can't wait!!!!!!
