A Weekend Getaway


 


Q.
What do you get when you combine 4 adults, 7 children (ages 9 and under), numerous towels and swimsuits, sunscreen, coloring books, balls, lawn chairs, cameras, mosquito spray, too many treats, wedding clothes and a trailer?

A. Too many late nights with not enough sleep...but lots of fun and great memories.

That's what we did this past weekend when we drove to Cincinnati to attend Greg's cousin's wedding. Our family, along with Greg's parents and 2 nephews and a niece (my sister-in-law is due with baby #4 momentarily...so they missed out) camped out, made smores, attended a water park (twice), golfed, ate, played, caught toads, and visited with family.

Granted, getting ready for the wedding was a bit crazy (I've never gotten ready for a wedding in a campground before!)...and sleeping wasn't quite like my own bed...but, the trailer (with it's A/C, appliances, and best of all -- BATHROOM!) sure beat tent camping. 

I might just be up for doing it again. Thanks to my in-laws for a fun weekend!
