Family Vacation, June 6, 2008


A couple weeks ago, we went on a family vacation to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. (Check out the photo album on the side bar.) It was so much fun. I never knew how far out there the Outer Banks are! It's like driving to the edge of the earth...any further and you'd probably fall right off. Even with the all day drive both ways, it was so worth it!

We read, slept, watched movies, and visited some neat places on the islands. After a long, grueling semester (okay, maybe a long, grueling 5 years) we really needed some downtime to completely "check-out" of this world. No cell phones, no emails, no chores...it was a beautiful thing. As we were preparing to go on our vacation I said to Caedmon, "Caedmon, we're going on vacation this week! Do you know what that means? That means we get Daddy all to ourselves!" And that was the highlight of my trip!
