I always feel like I leave school in June, after closing down my classroom thinking the summer ahead is going to be endless. Then, I sit here at the start of August and wonder where in the world it went and what the heck I could have possibly done with all my free time!?
Our summer has been extra crazy this year due to selling a house, moving back in with my parents, heading to Hilton Head for a few weeks, hubs studying most days, house hunting, etc. I honestly can't even believe its less than 12 days till we have to go back to school! AHH!
That being said, hubs and I wanted to get away before it was back to work for me. So, we planned a last minute trip up to Michigan for the weekend and will be here till Tuesday! But, so far this weekend we have relaxed and enjoyed ourselves greatly! Today, we went to Frankenmuth, Michigan to visit the Christmas store. It was rather large but I was not overall impressed with what the store had to offer. I had very high expectations of a huge elf factory, but it just reminded me of an ornament store. Although, we still managed to have a good time with hubs sister and her fiancé!
Today, we are headed to scope out the Bay City area! Hoping to find a nice lake beach we can sit out on and some neat attractions to see!
Then, Tuesday we will head on home, do some laundry and head out to a bed and breakfast for 2 nights in NY on Wednesday! It will be a great week to send off summer vacation!
Next week, back to the classroom to get ready for all my little kinder babies :)
As always, linking up to tell you all about my weekend!
Is blogging on Saturday, a thing? I am not sure the rules of the blogging world! Ha!
Anyway, the hubs and I are headed up to the great state of Michigan today! You know those horribly cheeseyyyy Michigan commercials
?! They got us, for sure it was the Kim Kardashian one, too... #justkidding
We are celebrating him being done with his test and planned a few fun trips to end summer on! I am so excited for our getaway to the Bay City area... anyone ever been there? Any must see spots?
Its great, hubs is the planner, I am the fly by the seat kinda gal. We have NO PLANS for this whole trip and I am giddy with excitement. Hubs, not so much, he keeps wanting to plan, plan, plan :)
I can't wait to link up on Monday and tell you about our long weekend!!
Linking up! With Rachael
woah, this weekend feels like it never happened!
Friday night the hubs took a small break for some early appetizers and when we came home, I headed to our neighbor's house for a welcome home dinner. Perfect night, out on the patio with a few bottles of wine! It have been unreasonably chilly up here in Ohio the past few weeks so it felt like a fall night complete with a bonfire. By the time I came home, hubs was done studying and we started a new season of survivor #coolkids #wedonthavecable #thankshuluplus
Saturday I explored target... again and pat catans, plus the dollar store. It was a busy day ;). I also was able to get a run in! It was a perfect day to run through our park system. We also drove by our house! It was still standing and still a beut :)!!!
Sunday, we spent all day helping my parents clean, paint and fix up the garage. It was a huge project but it is starting to look great. I also helped my mom refinish a few old cabinets and add sweet doors on them. I will have a before and after once I find cute hardware. The only downside of this refinishing, it the permanent spray paint and stain that is not stuck all over my hands/nail/feet/legs/clothes.
Now that I look back, this weekend was not very eventful. However, it seemed as though it was. #whoops
The hubs leaves today to head down to the state capital to take his test. For the next three days, send some good thoughts our way. I know he is ready and will do great!
I hope everyone else had a great weekend!
