It's Friday!!!

And not only is it Friday, it's the Friday before vacation! Woohoo!! Mark and I both took next week off. We usually don't take time off in the summer as we prefer to travel when things are less crowded, but this year we decided to take a week off and stay home! We've got lots of things planned for next week including a BBQ with some other friends who have 4 kids (including the boy who likes SB and has since 2nd grade! She likes him too!), lunch and a movie with said boy and his mom, a trip to Waterworld, a night away for Mark and I, the circus, our normal 4th of July picnic and fireworks with my mom, Mark's dad, and sometimes Mark's brother and his family. It looks to be a fun week and we all desperately needed a mid summer break!
