We are going camping this weekend on what is shaping up to be our only vacation/getaway of the summer. We thought we would be moving this summer, so we didn’t plan any vacations, and boy can I feel it.
I feel like I am in a rut and need a change of scenery. My dad arranged a family camping trip this weekend, and I couldn’t be more excited. I feel like I am going away for a week instead of a couple days. The boys are super excited as well, and can’t wait for s’mores the camp fire, and sleeping in a tent.
I am off to the stores to get everything we need for our 2 day/2 night camping trip. I wish we were going for a bit longer, but on the plus side, at least I don’t have to pack two weeks worth of clothes and other necessities for the family.
In other news I have been riding my bike almost every night, and am really enjoying the exercise. Joe got the part needed to fix our bike trailer so he and the boys can start going with me. We got Cole a bike yesterday- he just has to keep up with Ryan. He cried every time Ryan got on his bike, and he didn’t have a bike to ride.
Finally, I am completely into the Olympics. I am loving Michael Phelps and Dara Torres (the 41-year old mother, who is in her fifth Olympics), and gymnastics. Fortunately I have been able to get some tagging done for a consignment sale while watching the Olympics. You’ll have to forgive me if my blog posts are lacking this week. If there are no posts, you’ll know I’m doing my part in supporting the US Olympic team! 🙂
