Vacations With Families Are Always Much Needed

It is always great to take time for yourself and get away. It is even better when you get to get away with family.

Family vacations are so much fun. They are even better when you do not get to see your family as much as usual. While being at college and working, it really does take away from family time. Also, with COVID19 going around has took family time away too. It is always important to catch up and have time together. There is nothing better than being together, telling stories, and reminiscing on old memories. Huge family vacations are hard to come by and do not get to happen very often. With everything going on, my family still pushed and made a huge fantastic vacation happen.

My family rented a house in St Augustine. I have never been there before. It was so exciting to go something new with all your family. All the grandchildren and my grandparents got to come. We stayed up late nights but still got up early. We made every single moment together count. As most of us are getting older trips like these are hard to come by. It’s hard getting everyone off work at the same time. It was even harder planning a vacation with all the sickness going on in the world also.

We got a house on the beach, but in a very private spot. We had our own boardwalk to the beach. The ocean there is so beautiful. I had never seen the Atlantic before in person. We also got to travel through different cities on the way there so seeing those were also cool. St Augustine has a nice beach, but also a nice town. It was a very historic city. It had forts you could tour. It had an ally downtown were you could walk around all the shops. It was a perfect spot for our family vacation.

We had the best vacation and unforgettable memories we will never forget. We had the best family dinners with the best home cooked meals. My parents, my grandparents, my siblings, my lover, and my nephew were all there to experience this beautiful destination with me. I will forever remember this vacation as one of the best ones. I’m forever thankful for family and this experience.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
