Winter Vacation

We're leaving later this week for a vacation in the snow. Wahoo! We're going to Mt. Bachelor for skiing and snowboarding. We're all very excited. Unfortunately Josh has to miss out because of his broken clavicle. He got to go last year and Zack didn't get to go. Zack gets to go this year but he only gets to go for part of the time because he doesn't have enough vacation days to stay the whole week. So he will follow us up there and then have to drive back by himself early. If the weather cooperates we hope to get 2 full days on the mountain with him. There's a winter storm warning in effect right now but it's supposed to clear before we're scheduled to leave. I'll take lots of pictures and will hopefully have some good pics to post here.

Going on vacation seems strange to me this year. In years past when I worked as a staff nurse it didn't matter when I was gone. My shifts would be covered by other nurses and when I came back it was no big deal. Now that I have an office job my work will be piling up while I'm gone. I expect to come back to a lovely stack of stuff to get caught up on. It will all be worth it though!
