Summa summa summa tiiiiiime!

Who has summer travel plans?! We don't have too much going on yet, and I'm trying to fix that ;) We've got one weekend in NYC which I think we've un officially done every year since we've been married, so that's fun! We'll be staying in Brooklyn with my bestie Casey in her new mansion (it's a 1 bedroom - and twice the size of her old studio!), so I can't wait. I love the city in the summer.

We broke out the BBQ and kiddie pool this weekend, so it's really starting to feel like summer - which makes me ready for the beach! I'm headed to the beach with a girlfriend in a few weeks and I'm working on my base tan and bikini bod until then. You can magically get in shape in three weeks, right? 

Tell me about your travel plans! Staycation? Road trip? International escapades?! I wanna hear all about it.
