Hiiiiii. Lazy Sunday over here. Drinking tea and considering making a fire. I just want to eat all the food and watch all the TV.
Random side note - DH blew a fuse the other night and I was pissed because we couldn't fix it ourselves but then the electrician came and also fixed the electric heat in the bathrooms which means I can shower and not freeze to death when I get out!

Good morning everyone. H and I just got done duck and goose hunting in Michigan. We are going to go to lunch with his grandmother. Then we are going to see his aunt and then head home. It has been a busy and very enjoyable weekend!

Lazy day here too. I think I'm going to copy penguin129 and do some candy corn nails. My black ones are looking pretty haggard. Other than than we've got another hockey game this afternoon and I have to update our budget spreadsheet with this week's spending.

Lazy day here too. For me anyway, H always finds stuff to work on around the house. Counting down the minutes to the Pats game and very much looking forward to some yummy chip dip.

Yes! I got two geese, and H got a mallard duck and a goose. H's cousin went hunting with us, and he claimed the goose MH shot. My H didn't want to argue with him.
Where did your dad go to moose hunt? That is on my bucket list to get a moose!

He hunts around here (central Ontario) and across the river in the laurentian mountains in Quebec. They got the first moose in Quebec.
I did a 10k this morning and actually did way better than I thought I would! I have hardly run at all since we got our foster sons, and didn't have high hopes for this race. But I did ok! Not great, but "ok" is good enough for me!
Now I'm getting ready for my friend's wedding this afternoon. Our boys are in respite care this weekend... I miss them already, but it's also nice to have a little break.

Super cute Ray. I am jealous of people who can paint their nails. I am so horrible at it. I stopped trying years ago and just blame my left handedness haha.

gabride2010 it wasn't literally three weeks worth of laundry because I've been wearing clothes from the pile, but I hadn't bothered putting anything away for three weeks...
It was a ridiculous amount of laundry though. I was sick of not being able to find the socks and undies I wanted.

So my mom just offered to watch the kid for us so I am planning a vacation DH and I in April. We haven't been on a vacation just us in FIVE YEARS. I am looking for ideas! Where would you go if you could go anywhere? Okay not anywhere, let's narrow it down to the continental U.S., Mexico, Canada, and Caribbean lol.

I pretty much only put laundry away when I can't find what I am looking for. It drives DH crazy that I keep stuff on top of my dresser.

Ooooh exciting!!! Do you have any ideas what type of vacation you want? Relaxing, activities/adventure, all inclusive, etc? I love planning vacations!

We love Aruba. Been there twice, both times were awesome. Would go back again in a heartbeat. Both trips were in September which is the slowest month for the island in terms of tourists, not sure what April is like.
Bonus: JetBlue has direct flights from Boston to Aruba.

Another Aruba lover! I've been in late March and think that April would be a great time of year there. It's my favorite island for sure!

I would prefer relaxing but DH is less into that. He'd rather be go go go. I am trying to find something in the middle. DH also doesn't love to travel. He knows he will have fun once we get there but it is the getting there that can be tough.

Ohhhh Aruba is a good suggestion! I haven't been since high school when we went on a family vacation but I remember loving it. I was also thinking maybe a cruise. DH always complains to me that beach/tropical vacations are boring so I need to convince him otherwise! After a long New England winter it would be nice to go somewhere warmer.

I have really liked Puerto Rico and it has some variety but is easy to get to. Vieques is supposed to be very nice but I've never been. I like that it feels different but still is the US so money, cell phones, etc work. We loved St. John but it's pretty quiet (lots of different beaches, snorkeling, boat trips to do though).

We stayed at the same hotel both times. The first time it was the Radisson, this time (a month ago) it was the Hilton. It's not the fanciest, but we really like it. It's in a great location, not as expensive as some of the other hotels, and we had great stays both times.
Personally I recommend not doing all inclusive in Aruba. There are so many amazing local restaurants that you miss out on if you just eat at the hotel the whole time.
I have plenty of recommendations if you end up going there.

I love Old San Juan but have never explored farther than that since I've only been to PR on cruises or layovers. That could be a good option. I was also maybe thinking somewhere in the U.S. Virgin Islands but I think in order to sell the Caribbean to DH I need to research/find some exciting excursions for him lol.

Awesome! Thank you. I asked because I was curious about hotel vs. AI. You make a really good point about AI. If that is where we decide to go I will PM you for sure
