Gone Girl

  Earlier this month, I had the chance to slip away on a girls' weekend where the goals for the moms of the group were to sleep in, stay up late, not make dinner for anyone, and watch a movie in the middle of the daytime...the simple pleasures :)  I was a little nervous about going, knowing that a weekend with the boys is not as glamorous as you might imagine.  At age 6, Boden, of course, is pretty easy to hang out with, but adding a 1 year old to the mix, means naptimes, lots of age appropriate snacks, and diaper changes.  All of which puts a real damper on free wheeling thru the weekend.  And Todd had a nasty cold that could have easily turned into strep throat.  But, I packed into the minivan with my gals on Friday with fingers crossed.

The short report:  Me and my gals rented a lovely home free of pet hair and kid grime and had a glorious time.  And, I heard "Boys Weekend" was great, quote "we did just fine without you."  Everyone's a winner!  I'm scoping out my next trip, already.
