this weekend steve had a retreat with the college group so the boys and i tagged along. we drove up to lake lopez (only about half an hour from our home) and felt like we were far away. it was great to…
-take a break from my computer
-build a fort with the boys
-read chicka chicka 123, thomas, and does a kangaroo have a mother?
-build block towers and demolish them
-give the boys long baths and then snuggle
-not cook (ha! because i usually cook such elaborate meals…)
-read mr. darcy’s diary (so fun! next is mr. knightly’s diary)
-go to bed at 10 and wake up at 7, nice!
-drink lots of camp coffee, with flavored cream
-get to know some new students and hang out with some very sweet girls
We had our own bedroom, bathroom and living area so we weren’t roughing it at all. Both boys had so much fun and loved all the attention. My camera died the first day, but I managed to get a couple pics of David. I think the second pic looks like a men’s perfume ad. just casually lounging in an adirondack chair…
What’s Mr. Darcy’s Diary???!!!!
oh! I heard that the “Diary’s” are good books! I should read those…
Sounds like a lovely weekend. Sometimes taking a break from the computer is the best break of all!
David’s got that sort of blue-steel-presence it takes for modeling.
sounds wonderfully relaxing!
What a wonderful weekend! Good for you all:-)
OH I love Lake Lopez. My parents and my family (my husband, two sons and I) went to Lake Lopez about 4 years ago b4 my parents moved to East. I thought this is a kid-friendly camping site! Glad you and your kids had a good time!
Enjoy your remaining weekend!
I’m glad you had a great weekend. Love the photos of David – he looks like such a big boy!
I love the comment about the “long bath”. Seems like just yesterday you couldn’t even get David into the tub without tears. So glad to hear that things have changed and baths are a fun time again!!!
Sounds like the perfect way to spend a weekend!!
May your week be filled with love & joy!
sounds like so much fun…i love the perfume add: so mature looking ! =)
