Ha ha. I was totally like "There's a Disneyland in Chicago?"

I'm with the girls, something warm and sunny soungs good right about now.

Well I would love to go to our cabin but it is still snowed in. Other than that, I feel really content. I have to work anyways so I have no choice. Cute ideas though.

Somewhere warm, sunny, blue waters and white sands. This would include a lounge, cold soda, and a good book. Oh, but I'd probably have to put a swim suit on--hmmm, bummer!
good luck making wishes come true!

I would want to do some of those things that your kids said. Tell Kenley can I go miniature golfing.
Bye bye.

Dream vacation=tropical. For me anyway. I thought the same thing Heather did! When did I miss a Disneyworld being built in Chicago? Too funny.

Enjoy your last few days of Spring Break! Keep dreaming big!!

I'm dreaming of...there's so much...I just can't pick one!

We've had a similar conversation at our house. "How come we NEVER go to Disneyland?" Triple Play was in our plans, but since we are having company this weekend, that got booted. So off to the park we go. That's the basic of our Spring Break Vacation. Oh and we'll probably hit the bowling alley too! This was cute Debie.

Right now I am dreaming of being anywhere with my husband around. Tax season is about over, so maybe that will be a reality soon. I think I would like to go anywhere foriegn. I have only been to Canada, which isn't too much of a culture shock.

Elizabeth said...

I still want to go to the Bahamas
:( Can't we go like next summer or something?

Emily said...

You're killin' me! I need a vacation so bad!!! It's always fun to dream though.

Sarah Jones said...

I would go anywhere! I think next time you have a break you should all make a trip down to Utah. We need some more visitors!

Lisa Christine said...

oh.....I would love to be in Europe. But I have a feeling that won't happen for a few more years. I would love to take the girls when they are a bit older....I better start a travel fun :)

ANYWHERE THAT MY KIDS AREN'T! CAN YOU TELL THAT I AM READY FOR SCHOOL TO START AGAIN!

Ms. Kristen said...

I would love to go to the beach and read three books and stay in my swimsuit(cover-up)all day and lounge on the sand!

hatch said...

I was thinking the same thing.. When did Chicago get a Disneyland. To funny!

I loved this. Bowling sounds like fun right about now.

Marilyn said...

What a cute post Debie! We hiked Badger today, and holy cow, that was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. My legs will be sore tomorrow!

Jeanette said...

My girls had spring break a week ago and I think we all enjoyed sleeping in the most! Enjoy your break.

What a CUTE post. I would have been thrilled if we had done any of your secondary, closer-to-home fun things. At least we got half a camping trip in.

Nicole said...

We had hot plans this week to do a lot of your second choice activities(mini golf and bowling specifically) but we got pink eye instead. We did get to go to "Spurgeon's Cove" I had to laugh when I called it that as we pulled in.
