Headed for NY!

Let's seeeee.... its Saturday night, and I am just about done packing for the family vacation to NY, wheeee! hehe. Last night, me and Lena went out with Angela to Cheeseburger in Paradise for dinner, then hung out at her house for the night and played some card games. It was one of those really great, gossip filled, laid back but hilarious nights that I haven't had in awhile and I loved it! It was like a middle school flashback all over again, except we just added a few beers to the mix. haha. Then I hung out with them for most of the day today, came back home, went to church, wrote a little paper for my online class, and here I am: procrastinating finishing packing up the last bit of stuff for the trip, as usual. I'm so excited for this trip to NY this year, because this is the first time in awhile that the whole family (well, whole family except for Dawn and Co.) has been able to make it up there together. I've been there at least once a year since I was little (with maybe one or two exceptions), but usually the whole family never makes it up at the same time, its usually two of my sisters one year, my brother and 2 sisters the next year, etc, but this year its the whole crew! Little Falls is like a second home to me, I remember always walking downtown with my brothers and sisters to go to White Rose Bakery and hoping we'd made it in time for Mcdonalds breakfast, haha. I remember walking up the secret stairwells all around the house, trying to find where they led, and late night poker games in the upstairs kitchen. This year could either be great or hectic, because it is not only us siblings and the parents, but also my sibling's kids, whom I love to death, but they may not necessarily enjoy our plans for the week quite as much as we will! The plan for the week pretty much looks like this:
Sunday: Get there. Get Yetti's pizza.
Monday: Hang with grandma.
Tuesday: CASINO! possibly Harry potter at midnight if we're not ridiculously exhausted.
Wednesday: Boys go golfing, girls go to Canal Place
Thursday: Cooperstown
Friday: Sylvan Beach, Lake George, or Old Forge
Saturday: No idea
Sunday: Go home!
At the very least, this week should be a great break from work, so I can't wait!!! Not necessarily excited to wake up at 7am tomorrow to get on the road, but being in a sleepless haze is half the fun of the annual adventure anyway! haha. Alright, time to pass out, NIGHT!
