Our Weekend Recap

This past weekend was tons of fun for our whole family....
though we didn't spend half of it together!

I got to go to a slumber party, with lots of my closest Bible study friends. We had a blast...eatin' out, hanging out in the spa, sharing our testimonies, eating junk food, giving gifts to one another, staying up until after 4 am, sleeping in a bit, and making a big breakfast together. It was such an awesome time with the "girls!!"

While I was having my time away with the ladies, my boys headed off on an adventure of their own! All of my boys love the movie Cars, and Josh decided to take the boys to a motel that the Cozy Cone (in Cars) was "modeled after." It is the historic Wigwam Motel, on Route 66, and all of the rooms are individual "tee pees!" The boys got pizza from Brothers Pizza and ate it in the room, while they drank their "Route 66 Beer!" They stayed up late, watched TV, and went night swimming. The man that runs the motel (Mr. Kumar) gave each of the boys a Cars backpack and was extremely friendly. The boys got donuts the next morning and swam again, before heading home! Josh tells me that the room was clean and well-kept and it was pretty inexpensive to stay there! I know that the boys will treasure that time with their dad for years to come!! I told Josh to take lots of pictures, and he obliged.....

**If anyone is interested in info on the Wigwam, please feel free to call us! A few friends made fun of Josh for taking the boys....but they absolutely loved it!! Josh didn't have one negative thing to say about it, and the service was awesome. The room was less than $80/night and was clean! Josh said that the grounds were kept us nicely, too! The boys keep asking when they get to go back!!
