She is a dear friend of mine from back in the day. We've been friends for almost 20 years. We don't get to see each other much since we live in different states but we talk often. Our lives have become so busy because we both are mommies now. She drove 3 hours as well...we met in the middle.
We stayed at a great hotel that had a playground
and a pool. Did you see all those monkeys hanging around on the playground? Poor girl had to hang out with all those boys.
Ryan was so proud of being able to hold his breath and go under water. Whoo Hoo-RYAN!
Our rooms were right across from these amenities and right next to each other. It was a small town so it was great that we picked a place with a playground. We went to the local children's museum as well. We had a great time. They played at the museum and
we had a picnic at a local picnic table.
We couldn't figure out what the smell was that kept creeping up on us while we ate. At times, we smelled dog food and then we would smell garlic....it was wierd. The boys really thought it stunk...they held their noses while they ate.
What a bunch!
In the evening the kids watched a movie in one of the rooms together and then we put the kids to bed in separate rooms. When they fell asleep, my friend and I would sneak out and sit in front of the rooms and catch up with each other's lives. We hope to do this again next year or one of us might drive all the way to the other's house. Who knows? The kids were babies the last time they saw each other. We figured out that we hadn't seen each other since the holidays of 2005. Ryan had just turned 2 and Jack was 6 months old. Of course, Evan wasn't around. It was something else...having 5 kids under the age of 6 to entertatin for 3 days and 2 nights.

It was sad when we had to leave each other....this is before we went our separate ways and
this is a pic of momma and 2 of her sunshine boys.
Daddy missed us...gave us gifts when we came home. The boys are into Star Wars and legos so how appropriate...Chad got them Star Wars legos.
I got pretty flowers.
Don't think Evan got left out...he got a Curious George.
Check out some pics from our trip that made it to Weekly Winners.
