Boys will be Boys
This weekend our boys (hubby and son) leave for their annual camping trip in the mountains of Pennsylvania. They meet up with my husband 's cousin (and business partner) he has 3 boys himself and they pitch tents and set up camp with some other friends and their sons and ride their quads and fish on 750 acres (yes- 750!) A friend of ours own's the property and he meets them with his boys....do you get the picture - BOYS ONLY? Not that I would go, I couldn't rough it in a tent...I like my down comforter and fluffy pillows! This is their 4th annual trip, lots of excitement in the air...packing, bags everywhere and questions from hubby like "do you know wear my riding pants and gloves are?" How the heck would I know that!? Here are some shots from last year and yes they wear all the safety gear, helmets (shout out to uswood1 in NY- I see you!) chest protectors, etc...they are all experienced riders.
Group shots on the "rides" See the little hunk in the front with no shirt on?
Hubby is 3rd from the left in this picture (or the only one with hair!)- My washer was clogged for days after this trip!
At least here in this picture I know they remembered to feed the kids! Pic on the right is of their camp site
My daughter and I have a fun weekend planned with lots of girly things! Pedicures, shopping for her shoes and a headpiece for the big wedding. I'll be able to catch up with some old friends, one who we call the Dunkin Donuts heiress! Her and her husband own a chain of 10 Dunkin Donuts stores....we laugh because you think she would be as big as a house from eating free donuts, but she is thin and beautiful and says that the only free donuts she gets are ones that had a donut "malfunction" that nobody would eat!
Oh and I also plan on listing some great flea market finds that I never got around to and also those beautiful Spindles handpainted by our lovely guest artist Claudia. I also will get the chance to get caught up a million things this weekend with the house quiet, like shipping out orders, and concentrate on some new projects. Planning our vacation to the beach and packing (I'll post more on that later) It's no where tropical, just a week to the beach. The tropical trip is planned for this Winter.
OH how cuuuuuuuuute! I love boys!

Our family does a camping trip every year. The guys pitch the tentS and the women "camp" at the house on the grounds! I hope they have a great time fishing and riding!

Do you think those boys have enough TOYS?? Lol...I especially love the pic from the side w/the cute little boy and no shirt...the look on his face...it's as if he is sayin..."AHHHHH mom...not another picture!!"...but we know NO GIRLS ALLOWED...so that can only mean one of the dads was following the RULES!!
Blessings your way...have a fun time w/your daughter...mom and daughter weekends...I love those...even w/my daughter grown...we still manage to meet up to have a fun week or weekend...thankfully now we have my sweet DIL to accompany us...went to Alaska with the girls last summer...we have a great time together... WE LOVE IT!! The guys do the same thing...except I think they are calling it "Guys Weekend/Week!" ha
