I HAVE VACATION FEVER.
But really, it's been over 2 years since I've had a true vacation (i.e. going somewhere other than the mountains or the beach). And while I realize how fortunate I am to even be able to go to those places, I am still just itching to get out of North Carolina and see the rest of the world amazing (...sometimes) country that we live in. Here's a quick recap of the places I've traveled to so far...
January, 2007 - first ever trip to NYC (with friends)!
 |
| this view...makes me melt. every time. |
December, 2008 - 2nd trip to NYC (this time with my family)!
 |
| atop the empire state building...it was FREEZING! |
July 2009 - first trip out of the country...CANCUN!
 |
| I'm not kidding when I say my life is full of handsome men, y'all ;) |
These are by far the most exciting trips in my life..but others include...
1. Disney World, FL when I was 7
2. Washington, DC with the family when I was 10
3. Peoria, Illinois when I was 14 for a World Series softball tournament (this was my 1st flying experience!)
4. Disney World, FL again when I was 15 for another World Series softball tournament
5. Countless trips to Snowshoe, WV for some good 'ole skiing and snowboarding
 |
| so, so beautiful. |
6. And then here and there trips to Tennessee to visit family, Myrtle Beach, SC for cheerleading competitions, and Virginia for more softball tournaments.
SO, therefore...
I'm planning a trip (for my birthday, May 12th) to three places (still close by, but hey..I have to get away ASAP) that I've never been before....
Charleston, SC
 |
| picture perfect |
Hilton Head, SC
 |
| did I mention that I love sunsets on the harbor? |
and Savannah, GA
 | |
| pure bliss |
I am so pumped about this trip and cannot wait to get out of North Carolina there!
I'll be posting again soon about all of the other places in and around the U.S. that I have yet to visit, so be sure to keep checking back! :) xo
Have you guys been itching to get away lately? Where have you been before, and where would you like to go?! I'd love to hear!
Always,
Haley

Oh yea, you need a vacation. We went to Charleston and Savannah a few years ago. You can read about the trips on my blog under the travel tab at the top.
Thank you! I will absolutely check that out!
interestingly enough we head to carolina frequently! a small lake in creswell has been our summer get away since i was five ~ taking our children there now is simply amazing! we also love the boone area. my sister and her family live in wake forest. other places our family enjoys are ~ hershey pa, inner harbor baltimore (great aquarium and childrens museum) chincoteague va, disney (with three kids that's a winner) san diego (great zoo). the list is long but those are our top choices.
