Scandalous Vacation!

So my vacation officially begins with a night of Scandal! Gladiators unite!

I should be packing...... oh well!

Summer in Winter...

I've decided --it's going to be a bit crazy... to deal with summer right in the middle of what is obviously going to be a major winter in Kentucky! But I'm still more excited than words can say to get the opportunity to go to Aruba with two of my favorite people in the whole world! It's just amazing!

Today will be the day that I try on all my summer clothes to see what I'm taking and not taking...we'll see how this comes out. I've read a few blogs about money and packing in Aruba and I think this is the best packing advice I've seen so far...

• a good pair of flip flops
• a swimsuit
• a couple pairs of shorts
• a couple of tank tops
• 1 pair of lightweight casual pants
• 1 jacket or sweater
• your camera
• lip balm of some sort with SPF
• sunscreen (…and lots of it!)
• deodorant 

It sounds like a pretty bare list, but I can see where there doesn't need to be much more than that. Although, I already know I'm taking my standard set of toiletries - that's not gonna change!

28 days to go!
