It’s been a crazy week but I couldn’t help but sit down today and scour through dozens of property listings, dreaming of a beautiful vacation home on the water somewhere. I know, it’s crazy – we’re years and years away from being able to do something like this. But I always think it’s important to continue dreaming (and I love to dream big). I keep picturing a large cabin on a lake, the kids out water skiing and tenting in the summer, fresh towels wrapped around them each when they’re chilly from swimming. I can picture my boys throwing rocks into the water off the dock and roasting marshmellows in a firepit. I also love dreaming about the fun they would have to bring their friends for a visit and have such fun parents!
I can also imagine huge family gatherings with all the little ones having tons of space to run and play and explore. A tree house, a rope swing, a garden of yummy berries and fruit trees, and don’t forget a hammock for restfully relaxing and reading a book. I shudder to think of the last time I took a break out to read. That would be lovely.
What’s your Big Dream? What’s your idea of your perfect summer home? I’d love to hear!
Isn’t Jess Pretty and Nice?! I should say so. She’s also one of my favorite bloggers in the universe and may even join us at the Boutique Cafe Girls Getaway. Go tell her she’s pretty and that you want to meet her in person!:)
Yesterday Brigs, Noah and I swung by McDonald’s for a quick bite to eat. As we rolled through the drive through and we were handed our chicken nuggets and drinks, I passed Brigs his toy that came with the meal. It was a cute ball with Mario’s face on it. I started to drive away when I hear his tender sobs from the backseat. “Brigs? Honey what’s wrong?” I asked. “Mommy my ball, it has no instructions!!” he bellowed.
