I LOVE COMMENTS and VACATION

I love the comments I'm getting! I should dress people more often! Coming soon: My Beach outfit!

We are getting prepared to leave for Pensacola, Florida for vacation. Tim's sister and husband are going with us, which promises to be a hoot! Mary Margaret is sure she will get Garrie to parasail, zip line or maybe even bungee jump.

All summer the girls have been doing odd jobs to earn their "playing money" for vacation, these girls have been working hard.

Mary Margaret has, baby sat for Sandy, mowed my bosses yard all summer, chores at our child labor camp, mowed a cemetery, and tons of odd jobs at the funeral home.
Taylor has helped my bosses wife with her grocery shopping all summer, toted stuff to the attic for my bosses wife, cleaned up a cemetery, helped my boss with the flags for the veterans in our cemetery all summer, and done tons of odd jobs at the funeral home, plus her chores at our child labor camp that we live at.

Mary Margaret set herself back a little when she had to pay on the phone bill. She's almost back up where she was until that fiasco. Taylor has counted, counted, and recounted her money 1,999,999,999 times this week. She has now decided that she is willing to spend only $20 of her money towards her number one vacation activity so that she can spend the rest on cute clothes for back to school IF I agree to pay for the rest of her GO CART RIDING. HA!!!!!! We did not cut a deal.

My plans are to sit, relax, read a book, get some sun, build a sand castle and have a good time with my family. This will be a first for the girls and Tim. I can boast a little, I have been to the beach way back in the day when I was 6 or so way back in 1979. Taylor said that trip didn't count since it was soooooooo long ago.

I say to her WHATEVA.

I have a real problem with this post. Who does she think she is saying 1979 was SSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOO LLLLLLOONNNNNGGGGGGGGG ago? I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL in 1979. Tell her no talking is allowed at the child labor camps in AR.
