What One Does On Vacation
We loaded up the car last week and headed for the beach for a little break from “normal”. We met up with my husbands family for a week of rest and togetherness and a wonderful time was had!
Now what would three ladies do on vacation…hit the outlets? Naaahh, we hit the fabric store! My sister-n-law found a great little quilt/cross stitch shop so three of us piled into the car and went with great anticipation.
They had a pretty good selection and I was excited to find that they had better prices than our local quilt shop. I of course could not resist a few of the finds! 
After a busy afternoon of shopping at the quilt store how else would you unwind but with a game of Settlers of Catan! I think that we played three games during the week and I am very excited to report that I actually won one of the games! There was some fierce competition so I was pretty excited!
It was a great week of being with family, resting, enjoying the kiddos and a hubby who took the whole week off! We are very thankful for Brad’s parents invitation and getting to visit the beach for a bit. Sometimes it is quite nice to feel the sand between your toes, the wind on your face and hear the waves as they break!
Here is a peek of what I will be doing for the next few days to come! 
Laundry laundry everywhere laundry!!! The trip was still worth it though!
Oy with the laundry already! Looks like my house – ha! Love the beach…the only sand between my toes these days is in our crab sandbox – oy!

We love you BUNCHES and can’t wait to see you again next month!

I’m so glad you all had fun! Laundry is not fun, but you are right, oh so worth it.
