For the past four days I have been unplugged.
It was a kick-off to summer with Mr.Wonderful home (be jealous, my husband is a school teacher, and he will be home for a few months).
It was a crazy fun family vacation away from home with lots of sand and little children off schedules.
Hi, my children think it's okay to wake up at 4 AM. Oh, and Starbucks did't open until 7 AM. SEVEN.
Obviously they didn't know my children would be up so early or they would have made an exception, right?
Memories made - Jack sitting on the edge of the shore squealing with delight as each wave came; my dad pulling Charlie around in an inflatable boat in the ocean, my husband and I staring at our tiny video monitor next to a huge 52" television that was turned off and whispering so we wouldn't wake Jack sleeping above us in the loft.
Did you do anything special for Memorial Day weekend?
PS. Thank y'all so much for the encouraging comments about my shop anniversary! It was so nice to open up an over flowing inbox after being unplugged :)
What a fun little vacation (except the 4 AM part!). The life of the teacher is pretty spectacular in the summer months ;)
ReplyDeleteSo glad I'm not the only one with early risers! What an awesome vacation!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you guys had a blast! We did a little vacation too, and yes, Jude decided that 4am was a perfect time to wake up and play.

How wonderful it is to unplug for a while! Looks like your weekend was super lovely. I'd do almost anything for a beach trip this summer!

ReplyDeleteWoo hoo for family trips! Although they are quite exhausting...you're right,memories were made.
ReplyDeleteyour photos are great...it looks so relaxing! I need to unplug soon. It was nice to go w/o a cell phone while in Ireland. But I still felt like I needed to check in via email, skype, etc. Eek!
