Everyone needs a break sometimes, and I’m taking one this summer. I oopsed and didn’t let you guys know before I left the week of my last scheduled post, but since I have lots of pictures to share, all I’ll say is here’s what I’ve been doing on my summer vacation…

EDIT: HA! I forgot I had this scheduled. And I really have so few pictures from the other trip that they aren’t worth sharing. Having said that, Myrtle Beach was gorgeous. We were a bit earlier than usual this year, and it was amazing the difference in the waves and beach animals that just a week makes. No dolphins, but tons of flying fish. Barely any seagulls and the sandpipers didn’t show until the end of the week, but there were more pelicans than I’ve ever seen in one spot in my life.

I ate too much (again). Drank with my family and laughed with my kids. (Or is it drank with my kids and…no. Not that. My kids don’t drink. Anyway…) Finally got Pokemon Go to work on my phone. Learned I need a new phone. You know. The important things.
