Air Conditioner Maintenance=Mini Vacation




SO, what do we do when the air conditioner needs maintenance in the month of July? We think fast and plan for fun. On Friday morning, the air conditioner was being replaced. High temperatures were in the forecast, so we made last minute plans for an overnight, in town.

The house was hot, time to start our adventure. First stop, Sydney's favorite place to eat in the city, Salty Iguana. Even Moriah enjoyed a Mexican treat or two. Next, we took the family to Charming Charlie's a fabulous jewelry and clothing boutique. Followed up by a tour through Crate & Barrel. It was a busy afternoon. We then went to check in to the local Holiday Inn. When I say local, I mean about mile from our house. We changed and proceeded directly to the pool. After a quick dip, we drove out to Jason's Deli for a healthy dinner(unheard of for us to eat-out twice in one day). Just because we got back to the hotel after eight, doesn't mean we didn't go right back to the pool. The kids loved swimming at night. Moriah was quite upset that I kept her out of the water this time. We swam until the pool closed and then fell asleep watching a movie in the hotel room. First thing in the morning, we were right back in the pool. Moriah demanded to get in first. It is hard to determine which kid loves the pool more.

It was a fantastic impromptu get-a-way.
