I was laying in bed last night....for the brief moment my eyes remain open once my head hits the pillow...thinking about SUMMER! Glorious, wonderful, fantastic, splendid, super, marvelous....okay well, you get the idea....SUMMER!
So here are my---
Top 10 Reasons I Am Looking Forward to Summer Vacation:
10. Sleeping in -- even with kids sleeping in until 7 or 7:30AM is better than dragging our rear ends out of bed at 5AM!
9. Sunshine and Warm Weather -- we haven't had a lot of sunshine and warm weather this spring, but I am still clinging to the hope that it is on its way!!
8. Swimming -- I can't wait to go to the pools!!! I love the water and I enjoy sharing that love with my children!
7. Camping -- getting out of town...in the woods...far or not too far...using our trailer...letting the kids get really dirty...relaxing...campfires...marshmellows...get the picture?
6. Reading and Writing -- I get to catch up on my own personal reading lists!!! Finally, I will have some time to start putting the ideas in my head down on paper...okay my computer...same thing!
5. Celebrating my 7th Anniversary with my hubby -- we are hoping to get away for a night! Majorly looking forward to that!
4. Going back home -- my youngest brother, Jordan, is graduating from high school...my grandparents from Minnesota will be there...I get to spend time with my mom, sister, and nephew too...take Caleb and Emma to all the fun places back in Rapid City...getting to see friends and their kids...eating at my favorite restaurants there...and so much more!
3. Visitors from Afar -- my grandmother, aunt and 2 cousins from Minnesota are coming out to visit us! I am so looking forward to doing stuff in this area with them and getting to spend TIME with them! I hate living so far away from family. And I am sure we will have other visits during the summer too. We call our house, Hotel Wiese, because we have people in and out quite regularly.
2. Going to the Oregon Coast -- the ocean...the sea food...the shopping...the beaches...camping...campfires...the exploring...the pictures...waking up to the sound of the ocean...the bike rides...
I could go on and on about the things that I love about the coast! You get it though, so I will stop!
1. Getting to spend my summer with my husband and kids -- lots of cuddle time, playing in our kids back yard pool, walks, parks, the zoo, exploring new things, snapping pictures for them non-stop, eating ice cream together...not being in a rush all the time...watching cartoons with the kids...working with the kids on different things (shapes, letters, ABC song, etc.)...
I hope that I can blog a ton this summer and keep you up to date on all the fun things we are doing!
