We rocked out 90′s hair at my graduation:
And we were so proud at her graduation just a few years ago!
Yay for the best Mom’s ever on Mother’s Day!
Vote for Mom and I HERE for Best of the Road 2012!
What? You haven’t voted yet? Well get in it now- there are only 3 days left! Click HERE, register- then vote for Team Blue Lollipop Road!
Because I have been saying hi to ask for your votes via video, Mom wanted to say hi too. Sure enough as we usually stay unscripted- here she is, laughing away at herself:
So mother like daughter? Yeah, we can definitely entertain ourselves. We always joke about how much fun we can have doing nothing.
Are you getting inspired to travel? We hope so! Here’s a little thought for this Wednesday afternoon:
It’s not all about us! Do you know how much free, cheap and fun stuff is out there for the finding? Travel doesn’t have to be pricey or fancy, it’s all about sharing a laugh, a treat, and some time out with someone you love- or learning something new from someone new.
They were good sports (no pun intended!)- at Wrigley Field yesterday. They happily agreed when I asked them to be on video. Joe was trying to channel some Harry Caray. Hilarious! And the chick in the background who pops her head in to make a face? Gotta love it. People hamming it up everywhere!
…for the Rand McNally/USA TODAY Best of the Road rally 2012!
Why?
Because we can finish a Ben & Jerry’s Vermonster no problem!
Talk about being able to hang!
Welcome to the world of the Peacock’s. Sure, Mom and I had some help on this giant bucket o’ goodness, but we are not afraid and we like a good challenge! We finished:
It’s been about 10 days since the good madness began for Team Blue Lollipop Road soliciting votes in hopes to be chosen for the Rand McNally/USA TODAY Best of the Road 2012. I have worked my tail off already and can barely sleep at night because I want so badly to go on this trip with my Mom. The anticipation and excitement of it all (and we are not even on the trip yet!)- is the energy I live for. I love it. I love “meeting” new travelers on social media, I love watching the videos from last years competitors, I love reading about small towns I have never been to and daydreaming about going to to them.
To VOTE FOR TEAM BLUE LOLLIPOP ROAD for the Rand McNally/USA TODAY Best of the Road rally 2012!
A special thanks to our Friday lunch waiter Joel for being a sport about this! Talk about jump right in when a stranger asks “Do you want to be in a video?”
What a cutie he was and super fun.
