July Vacation Wrap-Up

This week I have been off of work and I have LOVED every minute of it! I've slept in almost every day and have spent the week pretty much doing whatever the hell I felt like, nice!
Vacation started off with my cousin's wedding July 2nd and reception July 3rd. So we were very busy with that. So busy that by the time the 4th rolled around I felt like crap and my leg was killing me. So I spent the 4th in bed and rolled out just in time to take a drive down to Selfridge Air Base and see some fireworks while snuggled up to my hubby.

Monday Fred had also taken the day off of work so we took the boat to Stony Creek- I love Stony Creek. We did some swimming (wadding really) and fishing...which I am also finding I love...and got a ton of sun!

Tuesday my mom and I spent the day together, beginning with massages and a hair cut for me (I think I found a new hairstylist) followed by lunch, shopping and meeting up with some friends to see the new Twilight movie. It was decent. I'm not a hardcore fan, but I think the movies are entertaining.

Wednesday I had a ton of house-work to do (ok not exactly what I wanted to do, but it needed to be done) then in the evening my aunt, her boyfriend and my adorable new nephew (cousin) came over for dinner and drinks.

Thursday my mom (who also had this week off) and I headed to Metro Beach and hung out for a few hours, later in the day Fred and I went out to eat and then began watching the Showtime series Dexter, which we are now totally addicted to!

Friday, we went back out on the boat on Lake St. Clair and did some shopping. Now, sadly it is the weekend again and Monday is looming. Today was nice though- I had lunch and went shopping with my friend Court and am now settling in to watch more Dexter. Tomorrow I have two photos shoots and then its back to the day job.

The only shitty part of my vacation was that most of it I did not have a car, and I still don't. Luckily Fred's co-worker lives two streets away and they car-pooled so I had Fred's truck most days. I swear not one hour after starting my vacation July 1st my car lost power on the freeway. It should be fixed Monday- it better be, or I'm going to be having some words with that mechanic!

Next vacations coming up are a four day camping weekend in August and then in September a girls weekend in Chicago with Brit- super stoked for that! I'll also get to see my newest baby cousin, William.
But having a whole week off was really nice...I think I'll do that again some time : )
