Our Annual Beach Trip


We leave for our annual beach trip in a few weeks. We are really hoping that hurricanes do not delay or disrupt our trip. (The photo to your right is from last year).

At the moment I'm desperately trying to prepare myself -at least mentally making lists of what to pack, what we need, what needs to be done before we leave, etc., in my head. However, I'm up to my eyeballs in work so I'm not really getting anything done right now in the vacation planning department of my brain.

This year, unlike every other year, we are staying for nearly a month! (Cue the singing of angelic music. Did you hear that? Yes, we are staying that long! I'm so excited!) So, my work and my son's schooling has to be packed up and taken along too which is not really as big of deal as I make it out to be because, hey, we are going to be HOMESCHOOLING AT THE BEACH! ;)

We're very excited about the prospect of spending nearly a month relaxing on a beautiful and peaceful beach with our family. Morning & evening walks on the beach, watching the sunrise while the waves caress our feet, collecting sea shells, crabs, and sea creatures with the boys every day, as well as eating delicious food that I likely will not have to cook for nearly a month is going to be delightful. I want to experience every day and every moment with my boys & my family to the fullest this time around - as it may be the only time we get to stay this long with everyone together.

We'll be back just in time for Halloween...

Posts from our previous annual beach trips that I love going back to read every year.
