Summer Fun!!

Sorry no school stuff in this post.  Why? Because……... We went on a mini vacation to the Keys and I didn't lift a finger to any work. I had a blast with my own kiddos instead. It is super important to take a step back, get your head out of the "work" and enjoy what God has blessed you with. I am now back and getting down to business. Up next, VEGAAAAAASSSSSS and I AM SO EXCITED for the TpT conference (can't you tell??) Meanwhile I thought I would share a few of our pictures from the Keys!  I hope you are having a fabulous summer vacation AND that you also remember to "unplug" for awhile!! :0) Here are a few pics of our fun:

Jumping in the middle of the ocean!

Rock Wall Climbing in the middle of the ocean!


The famous Key Deer!!

THe kids and I at Mallory Square! (Jeez…. I just realized that I look like a Munchkin standing beside my oldest - and he's only 16!!)


So that's what we have been up to! Your turn……….Have you ever been to the Keys? Do you have a fabulous trip coming up soon so that you can "unplug" your busy/hectic life??? I hope so!! :0) Happy summer y'all!!
