Hitting the Open Road

My husband and I are finally taking our first vacation since our honeymoon ( so our first vacation in almost a year) - YAY!

We're heading to Roque's Bluff, Maine for a week.  We hit the road last night and spent the night in Freeport, Maine.  This morning we checked out L.L. Bean's Flagship store - which if you haven't been there, was basically it's own city.  And we also checked out the L.L. Bean Freeport Outlet.  If you haven't caught on yet, we love L. L. Bean.  The outlet was amazing - we got some STEALS on everything- we bought at least 10 pair of pants between the two of us - all of them $10 or less.  We each also found hiking boots for $80 - those will probably come in handy during this vacation since we realized that we both needed new hiking boots when we were packing.  Oh and our furry family member is joining us for some hiking fun with her own L.L. Bean hiking boots!

 Anyway, we're on the road again and heading to our second L.L. Bean outlet (in Bangor, Maine) and then we'll finish the trip and arrive in Roque's Bluff.

I'm looking forward to spending a week here:

Mission Complete (Bridesmaids Keep Out!)

I found and ordered my awesome gifts for my bridesmaids, but I needed the last piece to the puzzle!

To go along with my travel theme, I found these perfect toiletry bags from L.L. Bean to add.  Right now (through July 8th) if you use your L.L. Bean card you can get 15% off your purchase (along with the usual free shipping and free monogramming).

So I bought one of these bags for each of my maids and monogrammed it with their first initial.  My favorite thing about these bags is that they're from L.L. Bean which means that they have a lifetime guarantee.  If anything ever happens at all you can just return it for a brand new one, no questions asked.  You really can't beat that.

I am looking forward to these arriving, I can hardly wait!  I'll let you know how they turn out.
