(yeah - I know - I'm old - shut up!)
I don't know if this would be considered a "stay-cation" or what. I am taking 3 days off from work so we can do something as a family before the summer is completely over. So far the general consensus for an activity is camping down at the beach - which is what I have been wanting to do all summer! I think we might be able to manage this. We already have our tent & coolers & chairs & all the swim gear & most of the camping gear. The beach is maybe an hour drive from home, so we don't have to worry about gas. All I have to figure out now is how long I actually want to live in that tent with the kiddos, especially once the newness of camping wears off. I know I could live on the beach almost indefinitely, but trying to keep the boys entertained is a different story. So we still haven't completely committed to this beach camping trip just yet. If this is what we decide to do, I just hope I am given more of a chance to plan & get things together than I was given for our last camping trip. Even though it was a great time - it was very unorganized and, to me, that is completely frustrating. I know that is a bit of my OCD kicking in. I can't help it. It would be more fun if you didn't have to run around trying to figure things out and scramble for everything at the last minute! I just know that I don't want to have to worry or stress about anything while I am sitting there looking at the waves roll in off the Gulf.
Whatever the case ends up being, we are going to enjoy our time together as a family!
