Enjoying the last of our February vacation up in Maine near family!
We had dinner out just the two of us in Portland while the kids spent the night at their grandparents.
They went sledding at sunset with cousins.
We visited all four great-grandparents.
I went to a spin class taught by my sister-in-law.
We sat in the evening sipping port and talking to my in-laws after they’d read to their grandsons and put them to bed.
I went for long solo walks on the beach, and fun family seaweed filled walks too.
It was amazing.
It’ll be hard to go back to the morning school routine. Rushing around, packing lunches. Carline.
I like sipping coffee until nine while the kids run around in pajamas and then walking down to the ocean before going to see my grandparents. It’s pretty amazing.
I’m trying to remember that I also like dropping the kids off at school and having some blissful hours to myself.
Which you know I’ll be spending in class. Aquasport? Vinyasa yoga? The laundry will do itself, I’m sure of it.
I’m even thinking about taking up running. Any of you run? 😉
Hope you had a wonderful February break if it applies, and make the transition back easier by remembering the things you love about your normal routine! If you can’t think of any, it’s time to incorporate meditation, a piece of chocolate, cup of tea, phone call with friend, a good book, or Jimmy Fallon lip sync videos into your schedule.
Or whatever makes you happy 🙂
