Please post pictures when you have the time as I would love to see it and live vicariously through your family and Nath's family, BUT, reality is reality. Please rest up and feed the family (and yourself, of course!) and bills.

Like an above commenter, if you add Italy you'd have my dream vacation. (Especially Scotland. I would so love to hear The Lord's Prayer in gaelic again..... My Mom used to be able to say it.)Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738504696243512495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-34771825128993871352012-08-08T22:13:21.416-04:002012-08-08T22:13:21.416-04:00They go back early since we are a modified traditi...They go back early since we are a modified traditional school with the whole week off at Thanksgiving, 3 at Christmas 2 for spring.Paula Calvanicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071152704222978446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-54432079491814821202012-08-08T14:04:06.194-04:002012-08-08T14:04:06.194-04:00Alex..

It's a wonderful place to visit. <br /><br /><b>Janet.. </b>Oh wow! Your upcoming trip to Scotland sounds just wonderful!!! So happy for you and your mom. I didn't think London was so overly crowded because of the Olympics. Not that I know what London is like any other time. And maybe because I compare most large cities to NYC and no place is as crowded as NYC. lol! <br /><br />All the best to you with the half this weekend! Sounds like a great race. I'm sure you'll do really well! Yay! <br /><br /><b>Gina.. </b>Thank you! I've missed you, too! <br /><br /><b>Dru.. </b>Thanks! What?!! How'd we miss each other on Twitter??! Glad we remedied that. :) <br /><br /><b>Maija.. </b>It was wonderful.

I'm on my way to Scotland at the end of August (with my mom) and am so excited. I haven't been over in 29 years - looking forward to re-connecting with cousins! There will also be a side trip to London (post Olympics - don't know if I could handle the crowds), which I am thrilled with as I've never been (nor has my mom who was born and raised in Scotland).<br /><br />As for other aspects of my life - running a half on the weekend (race is capped at 100, so it will be an intimate affair).<br /><br />Looking forward to the vacation post, Christine :)Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13297537075103893956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-64150693421100202712012-08-08T00:30:06.042-04:002012-08-08T00:30:06.042-04:00Oh, that picture is great! you two make a lovely c...Oh, that picture is great! you two make a lovely couple!<br />I'm so happy you had such a great time!

When we were newlyweds and then new parents we had no money to travel. We're making up for it now while we panic about the girls growing up [and out of the house!] too fast. <br /><br />Aww, I can't believe your kids go back tomorrow. You go ahead and complain all you want. I would be too with kids in three different schools, all that homework, driving them places, juggling school, social and extracurricular activities. Doing the shopping, cooking, cleaning AROUND all those other activities. Okay I'm tired just thinking about it. Why are they going back to school just when it's getting so hot? July and August are the hottest months here in NJ.. which is why we're not in school now. No air conditioning in schools.. taxes would be even more outrageous than they already are if we had to pay that bill, right? <br /><br />All the best for a great school year for everyone! Including YOU! xo <br /><br /><b>Linda ... </b>I can't wait to share! I used my iphone a lot on this trip, so most of the pics will be ones I've posted already. Hope I don't bore you! lol!

Yuck, it went way too fast I'm just not ready to get back to driving them to 3 different schools at 3 different times no less and have homework and junk start over. I told my hubs I'm just too old for this, at 47 I should be chilling :p oh well Of course the heat is starting this week too, 105 and such just grand. Boy I'm really complaining, I think I needed a little more time at the beach.<br /><br />Glad you had a wonderful trip : )<br /><br />PaulaPaula Calvanicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071152704222978446noreply@blogger.com
