I think we need a little fluff :)

1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?

2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?

3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?

Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

So camp is available, not required at those times. You roll over vacation each year, so why again are you limited to only one week a year that works for a family vacation?

I am not working with just myself but 4 other adults who also work. So far, I will be asking for 4 weeks off next year when the new year begins. That will not include the days off needed for the following school year starting in Sept. 2011.

What is busy about Christmas break and spring break? I know there are holiday parties around Christmas and spring break could fall on Easter, but those are also great holidays to spend with family, imo.

To go away? Everyone goes away at the times kids are off. I have gone away on spring break and would never do that again. And again, camp is available to me that week so I would never consider it. If my mom wants to come for holidays, she is more than welcome :)

Wonderful and yes, where there is a will, there is a way.

Yes, of course. But why would I pay twice for my meals?

Well some others don't agree. That is why no one else is coming on our next vacation with us :(

Eating out is fun on occassion, but does get tiring very quickly.



so are vacations, which makes eating out and trying different places when we take one all the more enjoyable.

You never had to, what?



Your posts clearly state that you do not want to compromise location, costs and time.

Even though I have NO desire to go to Disney for vacation, if the majority or everyone else wanted to go there, I would. But I'd put my foot down if they wanted to go there every time we were planning a trip!

You aren't limited to the places on the meal plan or on the cruise ship?
