It was Friday night, the day before our family vacation. I was getting everything ready loading the truck. My wife, Anna Conley was packing my two beautiful kids. They were so excited that when it was bed time, they had trouble falling asleep. After I gave my beautiful kids a goodnight kiss, I went to take a cold shower and got ready for bed. My wife was already sleeping by the time I got out the shower. Surprisingly my daughter, Maria and my son, Max were soundly asleep. My kids both love to fish with me and their mother. They are the greatest gift I have ever received. They always make me feel like I am the best father in the world. The next morning waking up, I turned to my left and saw that my wife was not there. After waking up, I was going to wake up my kids, but they were not in their rooms. When I was going downstairs, I smelled fresh pancakes and heard birds singing. “Good morning everyone,” I said with a big smile because everyone who I was looking for were already downstairs getting ready to eat breakfast. “Good morning sweet heart, how did you sleep?” Anna said, “Oh, I slept good,” I said and I asked her the same question. “Who is ready for a little camping vacation?” I asked the kids. Max and Maria both said “MEEEE!” After we ate breakfast, we got our belongings and started heading toward Lake Keowee. It was such a bright, beautiful morning. Everything was going so great until my truck suddenly broke down. This was strange to me because I never had problems
While we sat in our rambling tan and yellow cabin among the trees at 416 Spencer Falls Lane at Big Bear Lake, we watched the gloomy rain fall all morning long. Finally, the storm passed and the dark gray clouds passed over, the sun shone brightly on the wet grass. Yes, the day soon was as pleasant as any other august day, of course we knew it was frequently the case with a warm summer rain. This time, however, the rain had swelled the river washed away our small wooded bridge. Elaine my youngest sister sat beside the washed out bridge, she was so unhappy because it was loss. It was then that a shiny blue convertible drove up beside her, the four of us, our names are: William, Martina, Ella and David, watched as the car approached, it was around
It was winter of 2010 during Super Bowl week. My family; Mom, Keith, Hunter, Alyssa, Eric, Lucas and I were driving to Minneapolis, Minnesota to have a family trip. Every year we go out of state to have a family trip. When we were in the car it took us almost five hours to get there and my legs were hurting so I tried to stretch my legs underneath the passenger seat to get rid of the pain in my knees. The ride was boring so all I did was go on my Ipod playing video games or listen to my music. When we got to Minneapolis, the leg pain ride from Oshkosh, Wisconsin was going to be worth it.
The best trip I have ever been on would have to be our first family trip to Florida.

Before spring break had started I took a vacation to florida. Me, my sister, my baby sister, my grandma, my mom, and my mom’s boyfriend all flew to florida, it took us three hours to get there. When we had finally arrived I was ecstatic, even though I had been to florida two times when I was younger, it was even better this time.
As a child, I believed that I was invincible. Nothing stood in my way and if it did, I just tore the obstacle down from the source. Whether it was trees to climb, pools to jump in, or wild hair getting in my way; I always overcame them. There was point in my childhood though, I realized not everything was under my control and power. I didn’t receive everything I desired like I was believing. My childhood untainted mind was rocked with a new discovery and mindset. Of all places for this change to happen, it was on a family vacation to Disney World.
I could hear all the kids scream as they played outside. Many other adults were talking and I finally understood one of them. “We need the wood thank you so much rover.” This is what i got out of all of the conversation. Soon after they grabbed me and took me in this hut where many other wood piles and pieces were. Then I heard “DAD!” I looked over and seen my son. Woody turns and say “Dad i found mama!” Sarah my wife and mother of my child looks at me and says “I'm so glad to see you, we are helping this school keep warm” These children are really sweet, They come in here all the time talking to us. But of course we can't talk back to them.” “The kids always thank us for keeping them
One beautiful Saturday morning, I woke excited about going to Delaware County Fair as if I was the same age as my young daughter. The day was looking beautiful, as the weather was like a typical fall morning. The breeze I could hear through the window; I felt like this was the perfect day to go to the fair. I opened the door of my daughter’s room to wake them up; I turned on the lights and yelled “It’s morning.” My oldest daughter looked at me with one eye half way open and said “It is not morning.” The sky was still dark as it was a cloudy morning. I told her “We have to go to the fair early so we can stay there all day.” They both jump on me giving me hangs and kisses, as this was the first time they went a fair.
When I think about a place, the first thing that comes to mind is a beach I visited in the Bahamas on a family vacation. When we first arrive at the beach we walk through an old wooden rustic tiki hut, where I was instantly hit by a strong aroma of fresh fruit. Followed by the sounds of their chef flipping veggies on a sizzling grill, and a sort of buzzing roar of blenders whining and grinding down ice to make the perfect tropical smoothies. When I was in the Bahamas my senses seems to enhance and adjust to the tropics of the island. I embraced the strong smell of the fresh salty air, the soothing sounds of the crashing waves, and the beautiful scenery of the fine light blue ocean’s endless waters. That particular day it was very humid but
Every year my family and I would decide on the country to visit for our Fourth of July family vacation. It has been a tradition of ours for a while now. Our goal is to visit all of the countries in the world and learn about the many different cultures for ourselves. We are all humans at the end of the day and we are all similar in more ways than we realize. The reason is that we just don’t want to remain complacent in a comfortable bubble, due to the fear of the unknown or false information. Therefore, our next destination would be to Africa, particularly South Africa. After reading various blogs from the study abroad students at Temple University, two of the blog posts had captured my interests because both of their locations were in Africa.
Have you ever had your life flash before your eyes or hear the sound of your bone crack? Well that happened to me. It was a cold and gloomy morning. My Mom asked “do you want to go skiing?” I replied with a “yes.” My Mom called Lee’s Mom to see if she and her daughter Lee wanted to go skiing. They replied with a “yes.” Lee’s Dad asked if we wanted a ride to the train station and we said “sure.”
There are certain memories that we have that we can remember like they happened yesterday. Many of those memories that have special meaning to me were of family vacations when I was young growing up with my brothers and sisters. Family memories are important to many of us because they take us back to a time or place that was special. One particular family vacation I remember vividly, and it’s a story I have shared with my kids on many occasions. Over the 40 or more years since that memorable vacation, I still smile and think how lucky I was growing up with a mother and father that did everything to give their kids an unforgettable memory.
