120 days and counting

120 days…
There are 120 days that remain until we board a plane for Hawaii; and this, my friends, is when the hysteria in the my house starts to build.

We believe, you see, that part of the fun is in the preparations. Because trips are over so quickly, and imagining all of the scenarios, needs, and adventures you’ll have over the course of the trip is all part of our fun.

Towards that end, I have a new iPad air for syncing my photos. I will carry my newly ordered Shootsac to keep my dslr handy for lots of photos. We are very excited about making another photo book like we did last year. I wonder what the total photo count for this trip will be?

I’d like to take Captain America again – and take more photos with him. It just always seems to fall apart though because it’s actually kind of time consuming to set up those shots, and usually everyone else is ready to move on. 

I’m starting to think about a preliminary packing list for me and the kids. I think it is very helpful to do this actually, because the more I think about it and write down thoughts as they come to me, the fewer packing mistakes I make… At least, that’s what I tell myself! 

 

Note – I wrote this a while ago, but just found it here, unpublished.  So, better late than never!
