So the rest of the family is already there, enjoying day one on the beach. Austin didn’t want to travel on his birthday so we are leaving tomorrow- bright and early!<\/em><\/p>\n

I have been trying to pack for our family of 6 while Andy runs all kinds of errands, all the while dealing with two boys who are bouncing off the walls excited to go, one boy who is getting anxiety about the flight, and one girl that wants to eat non-stop. Crazy.<\/p>\n

I never stress too much about packing because I feel like whatever we forget is the closest Target away. Of course it will include a ferry ride, but it can be done. <\/p>\n

Most important, I have bought three new books<\/p>\n

Girls in Trucks by Katie Crouch<\/p>\n

Can you keep a secret? by Sophie Kinsella<\/p>\n

Nantucket Nights by Elin Hilderbrand<\/p>\n

All three seem like great beach reads. I also have a bunch of magazines<\/p>\n

Better Homes and Gardens<\/p>\n

Cookie<\/p>\n

Real Simple<\/p>\n

and probably the one all of the chicks (including my MIL) will be fighting over- People’s latest issue<\/a> with the hottest guys. Of course none of my top picks will be one the list. But that is a whole ‘nother post. One of my friends told me that she thinks I have the worst taste in men- well except for my husband. She thinks he is pretty cute. <\/p>\n

My list would include a musician
\n\"RS987~Billie-Joe-Armstrong-Rolling-Stone-no-987-November-2005-Posters\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

Because how can you not love a musical genius, and he is so stinkin’ cute. But probably way too short for me<\/p>\n

a comedian<\/p>\n

\"Seth-Rogen-Happy\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

Ok how can you not love a guy who makes you laugh all the time??<\/p>\n

and a professional athlete<\/p>\n

\"3245031199_238841a09b\"<\/p>\n

Now you know the real reason I like hockey. Just kidding.<\/p>\n

And no, my husband is not allowed to make a list because all you have to do is walk into his place of biz<\/a> to get an idea who his list might include. Ok I just pulled up the link and I have that bikini packed to take to the beach but I am missing two large components for the top portion. It says miracle bra swimsuit but I think that miracle may have included a trip to a dr. Just sayin’….. that suit does not perform that kind of miracle on me. Oh never mind, upon further reading I realize that I have last years version which does not include the removable padding. That explains everything. LOL. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Ok, off to get kiddos to bed EARLY.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
