7 Real Quickies

Hosted by Grace today while we are still praying for Jen and Joseph!

1)
We are heading out for April vacation tomorrow morning at 4 am.  We'll be driving down to Maryland then on to Pennsylvania.  A week of no work and no school = guaranteed fun.  



Too many pictures to come, I'm sure.  Consider yourself warned.

2)

On the way home from this trip we are making plans to get together with Cari and Clan (gotta keep the Lotus and John-Paul romance alive), and try to meet up with Aimee and Crew for the first time!  I love turning bloggy friends into real-life friends.


3)
I only eat salad for the croutons, craisins and blue cheese dressing.  Oh my yumminess.

4)
I am loving Pink's song "Just Give Me a Reason".  Played on pete and repeat.

5)
This has been a really busy and stressful week at work.  I am so ready to not come back here at all next week.  Can you tell I'm in vacation mode already?




6)

McDonald's Medium Ice Coffee are only $1.00 right now.  Thank you St. Drogo.  Did you know there was a Saint of Coffee Shop Owners?  I feel like Catholics could start an advertising campaign similar to Apple's "there's an app for that": 

Problems?  There's a Saint for that.

7)
Joining in a day late for Theme Thursday: Grow
I cut open my bell pepper last night to make chicken fajitas and found a baby pepper growing inside!  So cute :)

Have a wonderful (hopefully) warm and sunny weekend everybody!

  1. Can't wait to see you. I'm making sure my camera is charged up so as not to miss a single cow eye exchanged between the two.

  5. #2... Lucky. Can I live vicariously through you and meet them too???

    #6 Too funny. That's a great idea, though. YOu should be in advertising

    I'm so happy you're having a vacation. Hope it's awesome. Wish I were hitching a ride retro style like I used to and visiting friends in MD who I haven't seen in way too long... but alas, I have some reasons that make it more difficult now ;) Have a great time. YOu'll be missed!

  10. Yay for vacay!! It sounds divine and I'll be oh-so-ready to see the photos!

    Per my trainer's suggestion, I got the Pink song on my iPod. Love, love it too.

    Thanks for the heads up on the McDon's coffee. One of my favorite places for on the go coffee/mochas. Seriously, I'm cheap and easy to please. Did that sound wrong somehow??

    Happy Vacation!! ENJOY!! I hope the weather is better where you are 'cause here it s.t.i.n.k.s. and I think spring will not ever come. EVER.

  12. Jealous of your impending vacation! Enjoy every nanosecond!

    As for #6...so much to love! Having recently given up Starbucks, $1 coffee drinks sound heaven sent to me! And the whole, "there's a saint for that!" Yeah, my creative, marketing mind is already on it. I won't steal the idea, though it is beyond fabulous!!
