Summer vacation may be over, but it is never too late to take a 3-day mini vacay with your family. As a little girl I remember the magical times my Dad would take us on vacation. My older siblings and I played in the pool all day, watched TV in our hotel robes and ordered room service until my Dad took us to nearby museums, landmarks and local shows. It wasn't until I was an adult that I realized some of those vacations were really his business trips. But that didn't matter. It was always special.

It's easy to combine business with pleasure and family travel, especially in places like Irving, Texas where we have the best of all worlds. Our corporate landscape includes seven companies on the Fortune 500 list, over 85 hotels, and we're just minutes away from an international airport - very attractive amenities for planning business meetings. But also, Irving offers fun for the family where they, too, can lounge by the pool and take in some local activity, shows, and great food.  So treat your fam to a special 3-day weekend, just follow me and see what I mean . . .

The weekend is the most important part of the week! And what would you have to talk about at lunch on Monday if you didn't do something really cool on the weekend? So below is our list of the top five ways to beat the end-of-the-summer blues.
