Me!

I’ve been a real blogging slacker this week.  I was on vacation…that’s my excuse.  Our time away was awesome!  We stayed at the beach and the kids had a great time.  (Ansley almost cried when we were leaving…she said, “I want to live here forevah, I don’t want to leave!”  I felt the same way!)

We were able to go the beach just about every morning, head in for lunch, then go back out to the pool for a little while before the afternoon thunderstorms hit.  The evenings were nice and breezy and we enjoyed spending a lot of our nights on the patio. 

Overall, it was one of the best times our family has had together.  I think even Jackson was more relaxed and enjoyed his vacation!  He started doing lots of new “tricks” this week and kept us all entertained!  It was great for all of us to relax, enjoy each others’ company, and not have to worry about the stresses of our everyday lives. 

Now it’s back to the real world.  Vacation’s over (sigh!) and there is cleaning to be done, clothes to be washed, and lots of other stuff that I didn’t have to do while we were gone.  Maybe I’ll go take a nap and do all that stuff another time.  It’ll still be there tomorrow (unfortunately).  Or maybe I’ll start planning our next vacation…

Our family is on vacation and it is off to a great start.  We had a great time at the beach this morning, came in for lunch then the girls got some pool time in before an afternoon thunderstorm.  I think they were pretty pooped…Ansley just climbed in her bed and fell asleep around 4:30!

It’s been great to get away and relax with the family.  Here are a few pictures from our day at the beach.  (I had a really hard time getting Jackson to look at the camera…he was having so much fun!)

It’s been a busy and fun-filled weekend.  A few highlights from the past three days…

  • Ran the Watermelon 5K with Heather, Jacklynn and Leigh Ann…matching shirts and all.  (We’re such dorks!)  Heather did great…it was her first race and she did awesome!  (I even forgave her for the death looks she shot my way every time I talked to her!)
  • Spent time with family at my sister’s house Friday afternoon and ate WAY too much food!
  • Spent time with friends Friday night and ate WAY too much food, again.
  • Saw an amazing fireworks show.
  • Worked out really hard on Saturday to try and make up for all the food I ate on Friday.  (I probably should have worked out for 10 hours straight to burn it all off!)
  • Got an amazing facial at this place.
  • Did about 49 loads of laundry and packed for vacation.
  • Went to the benefit concert at Avalon and heard Shane and Shane and Josh Wilson perform…LOVED it!

We’re looking forward to our vacation at the beach…gotta go finish packing!
