Spring Break!

Oh my it is that time of year again. Spring Break. Not just any Spring Break, but Megan's senior break. Where did that come from? I remember just yesterday it seems that she was a sophomore and Lauren left for college, and I thought we had 3 years of these breaks to enjoy. But here we go. The last one with her before college. And to top it off, Austin is going to be with another family skiing in Lake Tahoe! So, with just us three, Megan decided to bring a friend and we are now going to the place Austin would rather not go, Palm Desert. Too boring for him, he hates to read, sit by a pool, shop and have fun long, conversation filled dinners. So be it, he will be active the whole week, skiing every day with a buddy and having a blast. I however, will be enjoying a wonderful break from this weather in my favorite place, PD. Loving that Megan is coming with us and loves to do all that we do. Loving that Reed and I will get to spend a ton of time together and loving that there are no plans! ( and no Hank. Sorry, we love you but...). We hope to see Lauren a few times and are looking forward to seeing Reed's family and celebrating his Birthday with them. Seriously though, such a different break than we are used to. Usually it is all about the kids, crazy, sunny and perfect. Things change and I am good with that, but I am a tad bit nostalgic and know that change usually means going back to the photo album for reminders of what was. What will never be the same. Not that new breaks won't be fun and special, just that they will be more unpredictable and spontaneous. Oh well. Like I said, I am thrilled to leave soon and thrilled that my senior wants to be with us, still. Who knows what we will be doing next year? I do think that when that time comes, it will feel like yesterday, again, when I wrote this!
