And They’re Off
I have eluded that we are heading out for a fabulous mini-vacation to meet up with friends in Maine. We are heading out this week (we have someone looking after the cat in the apartment so I feel confident in stating so). I am beyond excited! I have missed Holly so much this past year, I can hardly wait to see her and her family!
This weekend I have worked so hard to prepare for the trip. With two kids in tow, organization is totally key. I also wanted J to be able to relax, as this will be his only break this summer from developing his lab and being all professor. I baked muffins and cookies for the road. I finished up some projects (see Holly you are not the only one leaving it till the last minute!). We went shopping for road trip goodies. Now I have to clean the apartment and do that last minute shopping and packing.
We did take the time this weekend to go treasure hunting (aka garage sale shopping!) Becca scored a backpack full of goodies that she paid for with her own money, we also found an old truck for Ethan and a night stand for Becca (that needs to be painted! I can hardly wait to come up with something wonderful). Then we found the most amazing thing … that I will share with you after Becca receives it for her birthday!!
I hope to blog a little on the road, but chances are slim that it will be frequent. Have a wonderful week. Happy Canada Day to all Canadians … Happy Fourth of July to all you Americans (hehe we get to celebrate both holidays!) For everyone else have a rocking week! Big plans for the holidays/week?

Can’t wait to see you! I was so excited when the computer informed me 17 hours to go this morning. Although since we don’t leave until midnight tomorrow, there’s actually more time than that.

How wonderful that you get to see Holly! Becca must be so, so excited to see Jaime! And Maine is beautiful any time of year, so I don’t think you could ask for a better vacation
Make sure you get a good meal of seafood…it should be even fresher there than in Hali…
(I got confused, I thought you were going this past weekend)
