family vacation: cabo san lucas 2014
Since we were little, my sisters and I looked forward to our annual family vacation where we could chill, hang with each other and eat everything all day and all night. This year the location was set in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and it was one of the best yet. With all of us spread across the country, this year was especially important as getting together isn’t as easy as it used to be. It was also +1 as my sister’s husband joined us for the first time.

One of the many joys of having a new job is disposable income. To be able to go shopping and get the things you want without worry is such a good feeling that is sometimes taken for granted. Now mind you I’m a serious bargain shopper, so we’re not talking multiple $$$, but shopping without worry is a great feeling and I’ll leave it at that. I spent the day with my sisters, and its times like today where I feel truly lucky to be a part of the unbalanced, dramatic yet super loyal trio that we are. We spent 7 hours at the mall (you heard right) and spent…
