Nothing exotic, expensive or super flashy about this past weekend but with Kenny out of town and Maggie spending the weekend with my sister and mom, we had the house back to the four of us this weekend and had a blast! We kicked off the weekend with tubing at Bear Creek Lodge with Jack's pre-school class families and decided on the spot we are going to go back every year! We might not be a big ski family (partially due to cost and time and having young kids) but we can be a snowshoeing/tubing family in the winter. It was awesome! Secretly I almost peed my pants down the first run because it was crazy fast and took my breath away but slowly I learned to relax and had a blast. The kids took less time to relax and were soon riding down the hill on their own in their own tubes. I gave birth to dare devils I tell you!We left amongst tears from the boys and promises that we would return soon (and great parenting skills of distraction by promising a special treat on the way home).
On Saturday morning we went to visit Big Grandma and Grandpa (Flo's grandparents) and had a great time visiting with them and the boys. I think we get too caught up in our daily lives and the GREAT GREAT distance from the valley to North side that we just don't go up there enough...that is going to change. After seeing how much fun the boys had visiting, we definitely are going to make it a point to visit more often.
A weekend complete with church, playing outside, wrestling time and complete control of the remote! We decided to cap off the weekend and reward ourselves and our marriage and go out on a date night. The kids had a blast with their sitter and we got to hold hands and eat our meal sans fights or diaper changes. Happy boys, happy parents. The Florence fab four had a great great weekend overall.
