Take me with you!!!
So ready for vacation. I had hoped that we could be on a plane out of here the day after my last final exam of the semester, but I totally spaced and forgot to remind Aaron to get a new passport. Some jerk face broke into his apartment years ago and swiped his backpack which had his passport inside, and he hasn't had to internationally travel since then. So he went and got that handled this week, but it will be about 6 weeks (or less, hopefully) until it arrives. I don't want to set myself up to be stressed out so I am holding off on booking any trips until he has the new passport in his hot little hand.
We have a bunch of trips coming up, which is exciting! Getting away is really under-rated. In two weeks we are going to Dallas to see my friend Brad get married, yay! (I am glad I will have wedding things to talk about again - still no word from my photographer about the photos, sadly!) Early June is hopefully when we can squeeze in our Honeymoon in Canada. Then in late June we are going for a long weekend in Port Aransas for a mini-beach vacay with my Mom's family. We all went last year for my Granny's birthday, so it is turning into a tradition I suppose - which is great news to me! Fast forward to Labor Day weekend, my bestie Katrina invited me to be her date to her friend/my acquaintance Aaron Blue's wedding. He and his fiancee are getting married on a cruise ship before it takes off to the Caribbean, so we are going to just pop on the boat for the nuptials then spend the weekend exploring Miami! Or failing that, lay on the beach all weekend drinking margaritas in Miami! Woohoo!!! Katrina and I know how to have some serious fun on vacations, so I am really looking forward to that! Then in mid September Aaron, little brother Jeff and I are planning a trip to Japan, which is going to be soooo fun and cool. I have never been so far from home before! Side note, does anyone else think I totally over use the exclamation mark? Too bad, I like it! lol Then after all of my vacationings I will settle in to what I have been told is an accounting semester from hades. Gulp. Last one, then I am done!!!!!!!!! And once I get through that one, assuming I have any vacation time left, we hope to get over to Nevada over Christmas break sometime. Then maybe an anniversary trip come January? Maybe, we will have to see! Aaron gets burnt out on travelling so I don't want to overload him.
The really great thing however, is that while we haven't exactly combined our finances yet, we have just been funnelling everything we can into our credit cards that give us airline points (any pay them off each month, of course) but between the wedding and all that business we have enough points to get plane tickets to all of our destinations (aside from Japan). So that is pretty sweet! But until then I will be dreaming of vacation for a few more weeks...
Anyone going anywhere cool this summer??
