Memorial Day Musings

May 22, 2012 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 6 Comments

Memorial Day is the official kick off to summer for many, especially if you have little ones in school. My niece is finishing school in the next couple of days and she has been discussing the start of summer vacation with me for weeks now. I was curious what are your plans for the Memorial Day weekend?

Will you be packing the car

Or perhaps going for a sail?

Architectural Digest

Or what about camping?

Or to a good old fashioned barbeque?

Pottery Barn

Or maybe you are staying at

Vanilla Decor

We have not made our final plans yet but frankly, any of the above sounds great to me! I would love to hear about your adventures and plans for the weekend big or small.

Have a great day! Be good to yourself!

    How wonderful to start the summer holidays so early, the children go on until the middle of July, though there is a half term break (this year it coincides with the Jubilee.)
    We'll be going to Brittany so that's the beach, sailing and plenty of seafood. Role on mid-July!

    Well, we won't be going away. My daughter has prom Friday night. I think I might just BBQ and hope the weather is lovely so we can invite loved ones and eat alfresco. xo
