Vacation Plans??


5littleladies wrote: Is anyone else planning their summer vacations yet? We're going to the Badlands and the Black Hills (South Dakota) in June with Sara (~Roo'sMama~) and her husband and of course Andrew. happy.gif I'm so excited but can't tell anyone yet because if some of our friends find out they will want to go too and we don't want them to come! wacko.gif So I'm telling you guys! lol!! I haven't been on an actual vacation for a couple years now and I'm so ready for one. thumb.gif

coasterqueen replied: We are going to Kentucky Lake this summer for 4 days. We'll be camping there with the rest of DH's immediate family. I'm really excited about it!

We'll also go to a great resort for several days with my work this summer that will also be a mini family vacation. It's free so we'll definitely take advantage of it. tongue.gif

We'll also be in Chicago in early September for 5 days for another work event of mine but will be somewhat of a family vacation.

We'll also take a few camping trips (small ones) closer to home hopefully.

booey2 replied: Ours is already planned and booked. thumb.gif We head off to a cottage the last week of July up in Haliburton Ontario Canada. The past 4 years we were at one place and last year when I booked for this year I messed up and gave her the wrong dates and without double checking our booking for next year she actually gave away the week I really wanted so we have booked on another lake, still connected to the one we were on last year and closer to the marina my BIL rents the seadoo from. Oh I forgot to mention we vacation with my BIL and FIL and BIl pays the majority of the rental, we buy the food and I really don't get a holiday because I am the cook/maid for the week. DH does BBQ and most days breakfast is a get your meal kinda deal. This year the cottage is more then we have ever paid but it is way bigger, has a dock, paddle boat and a canoe and motor boat that we can rent. We also take my niece who will be 15 this summer and maybe her younger brother this year who is Matthew's age - so the boys have someone to play with. My neice just got a job so she may not come this year but she really wants to because she is spoilt when she is with us and she made some friends (boys) last year and wants to see them again this year. I can't wait to go.

Here is a link to this years cottage:

Listing and description of cottage

This one has way more room then the last one and we had 14 people one night last year. ohmy.gif

Terri

PS BIL is single and in his forty's and has money to burn so the only way we go to the cottage is if we go with him.

luvmykids replied: DH and I are going to Palm Springs CA in September, we go every other year (the other years Orlando) Hopefully I'm having a girls weekend in Texas ( thumb.gif ) and probably a Vegas trip in there somewhere.

With the kids we're thinking San Diego or San Antonio and a lot of camping if Macie can handle it. If not just day trips for fishing.

coasterqueen replied: Wow, that's beautiful Terri! That will be so much fun. thumb.gif

kayla's mama replied: The only thing we have planned right now is a trip to Branson with my parents and G'parents in Oct. We might go STL a couple of times.

Everyones trips sound like so much fun!!!! smile.gif

Sarah&Mackenzie replied: We don't go on vacations dry.gif

kayla's mama replied:

We don't either dry.gif This is a first vacation in 6 years!!!!

coasterqueen replied:
Sarah - we normally don't do anything but close to St. Louis or Chicago so I never really call those vacations. biggrin.gif This is the first year we are going farther.

5littleladies replied: Terri-That place is amazing! I'm sure you will have a blast!



We don't usually either. Dh hates trying to plan them and we rarely have the money, but this year I told him that I needed one and by golly we were going. rolleyes.gif We're just going camping so it won't cost us much, but at least we are getting away!

booey2 replied:
Thanks, I edited my post because if it wasn't for BIL we probably would only do stuff around town like go to the local beaches and the zoo and other day trips. We don't have the xtra in the budget for much else.

I just found my other link this one is easier to look at:

My Cottage for vacation

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Jennifer that sounds like so much fun!! I love to go camping! thumb.gif

We don't take vacations, either. We might go to the lake and stay in a cabin like we did a couple of years ago. That was fun. happy.gif Honestly, it is so much trouble taking Ethan anywhere that it just isn't worth it right now. DH promised me a family vacation when the kids are a bit older. wub.gif This says a lot b/c he HATES to travel. He will only do it if family is involved in some way. rolleyes.gif

I'M going to San Diego in June though. elephant.gif Just me...no hubby, no kids. I'm so excited! I'm meeting up with some friends and giving Scotty some alone time with the kids (muahahahahaha) He's so excited about it. He keeps talking about what all he is going to do with them while I'm gone. wub.gif They will have fun.

luvmykids replied:
I always wondered how to spell that rolling_smile.gif

5littleladies replied:
Aimee, what fun!! It will be forever before I am to a point where I could not only leave the kids (meaning I wasn't pregnant or nursing rolleyes.gif ) but also convince Jas to stay with them. You'd think he hasn't been here for the last 8 years helping me raise them, the way he acts when I want to leave them home with him. dry.gif tongue.gif

Kaitlin'smom replied: I dont know when but we promised to visit grandma in FL this summer we really need to pick the time frame so I dont go book something else the months are getting full already.

My3LilMonkeys replied: We will be going to Myrtle Beach with my parents and extended family the last week of July.

mckayleesmom replied: I will probably go see my mom at some point or another....she lives in Arizona and my dad and the rest of the family live in California....We are also probably moving this summer....hopefully to Florida.
