After yesterday’s post by BigSis, today I’m finding it hard to talk about eyeshadow, a new skin care product, a new recipe, or even a funny ‘kitty’ photo. And, I’m certainly not going to complain about gaining five (or so) pounds from not being able to exercise. In the big scheme of things, none of that really matters.

The most important thing to me is spending as much time as possible with family and close friends. Isn’t that really what it’s all about? I’m on vacation in Chicago right now visiting the kids, grandkids, and all of SirHoney’s family.

We’ve already had so much fun since we’ve been here. We had the entire extended family together for Father’s Day, spent a great day at the lake on Monday and then a full day at the pool with Meem and all three little guys yesterday.

And, we still have lots of fun stuff planned for the next several days. We’re going to head downtown on Thursday, we have a big family reunion and Bo’s and BigGuy’s birthdays to celebrate on Saturday, a cookout on Sunday, and will head back to California on Monday.

I hope every one’s Summer is off to a great start and that you’re able to spend some time with family over your Summer vacation!
