I'm with you Kim. I'll take vacation any day over school. The kids had so many tests and projects due this week that I think I am more excited than they are to get out of school.
My DH and I have to buy the kids something to play with, build or craft to do because I think we like them better than they do. My DH's favorite part of christmas is putting the toys together. Unfortunately, they are getting older and they don't get that many toys anymore.
