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?

Plus, when we are on vacation, we usually eat dinner rather late so my kids are often tired and spent. Much easier to let them relax in the living room playing a board game than sitting in a restaurant either waiting for a table or waiting for a meal to arrive.



Yes!

I think the best time to try new foods is on vacation. We all love to eat and try all different types of places.

I don't see the need to watch TV on vacation. Here and there while waiting for everyone to get ready but we are there to do things that we wouldn't and could do evey other day.

Yep...We always ate lunch in, when the kids were little, then they went down for a nap.

Well, for years now, I've always traveled with small children.

There is plenty of opportunity for that, w/out eating every meall out, for a week or more.

If you have access to a washer and dryer and have nothing else to do I can see that.

I don't have an issue if the kids want to sit and unwind while watching a movie, while I prepare dinner...or if they want to watch a cartoon in the morning, while waiting for the shower.

I would rather do it someplace where I am spending a ton of money and then not like it. On the cruise I can try everything and more than once and if I don't like something I don't have to make something else or pay for another meal in a restaurant.
