As I sit down to write this morning, the house is quiet yet starting to stir and my coffee is hot and just what I need. I'm looking over my to-do list for the hundredth time. It's time to get the last of things packed and ready to go before our spring break adventure. Packing and getting ready for a vacation is a small feat in itself, especially when it involves four kids, but it will be well worth it when my feet hit the sand. Our flight leaves later this afternoon, and I can't wait! My kids definitely can't wait because they've reminded me of our itinerary every five seconds since last week-HA!
We are heading to my happy place...otherwise known as the beach. I love to travel and explore new places, but I'm a warm weather, beach girl at heart in terms of vacation spots. We are heading to a spot in Florida where I spent a great deal of my childhood visiting my grandparents. It's exciting to be able to now share this with my own children and create new memories with them. Sunshine, warmth, (oh, and I did I mention the beach?) are good for the soul. My happy place may be the beach, but really it's about being with the people I love the most no matter what adventure we are tackling next.
Where's your happy place? :)
The beach is definitely my happy place as well. Enjoy your vacation!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! I agree with you- sunshine, warmth and the beach are good for the soul.
ReplyDeleteI love the beach, too - and the mountains. With a kiddo in school in the mountains, that is my happy place for now. But....that beach is definitely calling out to me, too. Especially when I am face down in a snowbank wondering where my other ski is...Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteSweet that you get to enjoy both, family and beach. I have a feeling you're going to do just that!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing quite like heading to a place you love with family! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWe just got back from a beach vacation, and it will be hard to put away the clothes and summer fun that we took with us! It was so nice to be away for a few days...back to dreary, rainy reality now! I hope you are enjoying your time at the beach!
