As we were eating dinner last night, our family discussed where we want to go to celebrate Rob's graduation (yes. I know that it is still three years away, but, hey. We can plan ahead, right???).It was decided (sort of) that we want to go to Fiji or Cozumel or Cancun or even a Disney cruise (thank you Travel Channel).
I made that comment that I really don't care as long as I can sit on a beach, drink margaritas (virgin, of course....), and read a book.
Jacob was incredulous that I wanted to read. "Read on vacation?" he snorted. Laughing hysterically, he said, "Reading on a vacation is just plain stupid!"
I told him, very matronly-like, "Jacob, that is what adults like to do. They read on vacation because they have no time."
Remember the days gone by when it was pure torture to actually read. Pulling teeth ring a bell?
I make my kids read for 30 minutes a day and you would think that I was the worst mom ever!

In three years Makel will graduate from High School and it will be our 20th Anniversary. We need to plan a fun get away. My friend went on a cruise with her family to the bahamas. Her oldest son graduated from High School and is leaving to go on a mission this fall. I think all of those reasons is good reason to go somewhere fun.
