For my birthday this year (on Wednesday) I am going to go to the Oregon Coast with nearly all of my closest friends and family, live in a beach house, eat 3 square meals a day, plus entirely too many\’c2\~ junk-food snacks, drink lots of coffee and do absolutely NO cooking, cleaning, or dish-washing for 5 days!\par

Yes, friends, it’s called Family Camp. The best birthday gift\’c2\~a girl can get!


Happy Birthday Ellie. It seems not long ago that you were being escorted to my house in a stroller.
Amen, sister! I got to fully appreciate the NO cooking/cleaning/dishwashing thing for the first time this year.
