Vacation!

So, I've been gone for a while... my family went on vacation.  Actually, we went visit family in Georgia, but that's as much of a vacation as I'm likely to get these days, so...
I was terrified elated with all the time I'd get to spend with my family in the car (11 hours, give or take), and was actually surprised to find that Eli slept most of the way, and Riley didn't mind sitting in a car seat that long. Huh.  We went to the Braves/Tigers game (Detroit won! Yay!), the Tellis Science Center (museum? whatever), took a boat ride around Lake Lanier, and just had a great time.  Then we had to come home....  BOOOOO!  I need a job that pays me to lay around at the beach all day eating bon-bons.  Anyone know where I can get that job?  Being with my family for a week or so nonstop just made me wonder if my kids wouldn't be better off with a "soccer mom" who stayed home all day making crafts with them and taking them to the pool...  But then we wouldn't have the house we're in now, and we'd live paycheck to paycheck, which, after doing that for years, both my husband and I agree sucks ass.  So I'm back at work, missing hanging out with my munchkins.  *Sigh*  Well, it was fun while it lasted!


Captain Riley at the helm



Eli happy as can be on the drive home
