vacation? I have a three day weekend coming up. My fiance, daughter (she's 2) and I haven't been out of town in forever. So here are my options:

#1 - go to Austin, TX and just take it easy, go to pachildren'schildren's museum, and eat for a few days. we can stay at my dad's place there for free so we will only pay for gas, food, and entertainment.

#2 - stay home and put the money we would spend on vacation towards a credit card bill, put a little in savings, and get a haircut! hopefully we will be able to use our tax refund to take a little trip this summer.

#3 - put what we would spend on the vacation to austin away to save for a disneyland vacation in a year or so when our daughter is a little older.

The reason this stresses me out is because I know it would be good for my family to get out of town and spend time together. BUT I hate wasting money when we need to be paying off debt and saving for a house etc. What would you do and why?
 
With the way the economy is now the best thing that I would do is pay off debts. In the past two months I have paid off debts reaching over $5,000. My husband and I have never even had a honeymoon. But now that our debt is clear we can enjoy our time and save money back for a real vaca.
