Vacations

It's been a while since I've posted, but with good reason. We were on vacation! My parents arrived in town on the 21st, and we set out for the Oregon Coast not long after that. With the random holidays in the back of my mind (and written down on a list so I could refer to it each day), we spent the last two weeks celebrating and savouring God's creation, the love of a close-knit family, the giggles of a soon-to-be two year old, and some pretty tasty west coast food! And while we may not have managed to celebrate every random holiday (I mean seriously, who wants to eat lasagna for National Lasagna Day when the menu before you lists the most amazing seafood...), we did take a stab at a few. Here's what was on the list of celebrations from July 23 to August 6:

July 23 - National Hot Dog Day
July 24 - Cousins' Day
July 25 - Parents' Day
July 26 - All or Nothing Day
July 27 - Walk on Stilts Day
July 28 - National Milk Chocolate Day
July 29 - National Lasagna Day
July 30 - National Cheesecake Day
July 31 - Mutt's Day
August 1 - National Girlfriends Day
August 2 - Friendship Day
August 3 - National Watermelon Day
August 4 - Coast Guard Day
August 5 - Sister's Day
August 6 - National Root Beer Float Day


What have you done to celebrate over the past two weeks?
