Hubs and I don't often go on vacation - we usually have a 4 day (travel included) trip to the beach with friends once a year (when births, weddings, etc don't cancel the trip!), but that's about it. I am very lucky that I've been able to go and visit family in SC and TX/IL/MO a few times in … [Read more...]
