The past few weeks

Have been exciting and filled to the brim with trips, family, and all that jazz. Let's see, we went to Vermont to spend a weekend with Dad and travelled home in Hurricane Irene. What a trip! First off - Vermont is beautiful and the resort was lovely. We had such a great time with my dad. The trip there took 3 hours, 45 minutes. The trip home took....8 HOURS! Yep, we got stopped twice because of downed power lines. We saw trees down, flooded roads, trees on fire. It was not a trip home I'd want to repeat any time soon. My dad stayed there for a few more days - some of the time without power and all of the roads in and out were closed except for one.

Trip number 2 was my sister and me for a long (long) weekend at Disney World. Yep - no boys, no kiddos, no cooking, no making our bed (if we didn't want to). It was awesome! Highly recommend it.

Trip number 3 was to visit my family this past weekend. It was a short trip - less than 48 hours, but we filled it with soccer, cleaning, harvesting, birthday party, bonfire, and more.

This weekend coming we are celebrating B's uncle's 80th birthday. He is a wonderful guy, and we can't wait to celebrate this milestone birthday with him.

I don't foresee any other trips in the near future, but you never know!
