Our family didn't take a big vacation this summer. And since next week at school the kids have short days and Friday off, we thought it would be a good time to ditch the routine. Tomorrow morning we fly to Branson, Missouri and meet up with my husband's parents from Iowa.Now I know what you're thinking. Branson? Really? None of us are big country music fans, so believe me, that was not the draw! We're more excited about the fact that Branson has lots of lakes and rivers to enjoy, and that it's close to Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennesse, Kentucky, Illinois and Kansas. We could visit 7 states in less time than it takes to drive the California coastline! Of course we have to try!
As a result, I won't be blogging next week. (Yes, I'm sad about it too.) But before I go, I wanted to leave you with some great links and pick the winner of And Tango Makes Three. First, the winner (drum roll please!)

Congratulations ladies! Email me an address and I'll send you the book when I get home from Branson! Don't forget to let me know who you pass it on to when you're done :D
As for the links, I have two fun ones:
- Twitter fans, here's a list of things that Matthew Inman comically says you should stop tweeting about (although with this list, there isn't much left to say!)
- Have you heard of iStoryTime? Those of you with PBs might want to contact FrogDog Media and get your stories onto the iphones of the parents of tech savvy preschoolers. Seriously.
Have a great week everyone!
