Ready for break

I have looked forward to this week for what feels like forever! it's finally he last week in class for this semester. I have a two week break then fall semester starts but I'm so excited for those two weeks. I actually get to sleep! I think that means I get to treat myself to a trip one of these weekend since I won't be spending it catching up on sleep and homework!

Things on the home format have been calm after two weekends of being away I know I wasn't the only one ready to just be home! Roo enjoyed visiting with friends but I think he would rather be home so he can get his 22 hours of sleep in for the day :)

In case I forget to post this weekend happy birthday to my love! Hope that present gets there in time! And to my MIL Miriam- no more waiting to open that present-Hope each of your days are special!

Lifestyle of the Rich and the Famous!!!

This weekend was, in one word, awesome! My fellow Minnesotan and I traveled to Mentone, Monaco, and Monte Carlo this weekend! It was a long bus ride, 7 hours each way, but to me totally worth it. Again Im going to give you all a smattering of pics but in summary here is what we got to see. Stop in Mentone, a seaside town for some breakfast and exploring the local markets, Monaco-Cathedral of Monaco where Grace Kelly was married, took a break in a local park to sit and watch the water....ahm yachts drive by, watched the changing of the guard, toured the Royal apartment (sorry no pics), Monte Carlo- enjoyed some beach time, Monte Carlo casino (again no pics of the inside where I dismally lost my 5Euro-im a high roller what can I say, gawked and rediculous cars in front of the casino and just simply took in the area. It was a such a beautiful area and I really hope I get the chance to return, maybe to ride on one of those yachts, big dreams, or maybe just dragging the hubby would suffice! Enjoy!
