I’m back from my San Diego trip. I had a great time, and will write again to say all the things we did. For now, here are the photos:

I’m going! to San Diego! wahoo May 15-18th. Using my some well-scheduled furlough days to go have some fun w/ the west coast cornells!

Photos from this past weekend

I’ve known for a while that my family is mostly women, but I actually counted it up for vacation and there are only 5 men on this trip, and 10 women. holy moly. Here’s our roster:

Grandma
Dad
Mom
Jason
Carrie
Dan
Christina
John
Jenna
Sean
Becca
Alisa
Ava
Maggie
Sophie

Here’s a rough mockup of what my souvenier is for the beach! I thought the t shirts might be cooler to have than coasters I’m going to print out the iron on sheets tonight at Seanie’s and then start ironin’. Each shirt is going to have a number on the back according to the age of the person …so grandma is getting 1 and sophie the youngest is getting 15. I’ll take pics of the finished ones. So cute! It’s gonna be great.

4 days til vacay!

I’m doing pretty good on my diet/lifestyle change! Been going to the gym 3 or 4 times a week and doing a moderated weight watchers points plan thing. I weighed in this morning and Ive lost 10 lbs in the past 5 weeks. thats really, really good.

Go me!

I’m going on vacation in 8 days! I can’t wait for relaxation and swimming, sun, and fun times with family. The house we’re going to is called Star Fish

I’m looking into hostels for Italy, and I can do this trip so much cheaper if I just do a hostel for the whole week. For two people, we could spend $300 for the entire week. $150 a person on lodging is incredible! yes it won’t be as glamorous, but I’ll be able to do the trip on less money which is becoming more and more important.

I know I said I’d like to go to italy in april or may, but i’m also thinking that i could go in sept/october in case I havent saved enough money. And sept/october is also off season, so i’ll get the better deals.
