A Great Weekend
Posted by: Lily on October 22, 2007 at 10:51AM EST

What a fantastic weekend my son and husband had together. They spent the weekend camping in the Georgia mountains with the Cub Scouts. They returned home yesterday, both smelling of a campfire and God knows what else!

They did the things boys should do with their dads (or moms for that matter)…fished, hiked, ate s’mores, sang songs and performed skits. And at the end of the day they fell into their tent and slept like a rock. Actually my husband almost didn’t sleep like a rock! He forgot his sleeping bag and had the nerve to call me and ask me if I’d packed it! No, I didn’t pack it or anything else for him for that matter!! (He had to drive 25 miles to a WalMart to buy one!)

Last night as I tucked in my newly washed Cub Scout I asked him who he had the most fun with over the weekend and “Daddy” was his reply. In this fast paced world, thank goodness for Cub Scouts!

I never have been much of a camper, but there is a lot said for getting away from technology and connecting with your kids in an old-fashioned way! We rented an RV and spent a week in Yellowstone one summer-- it was an amazing experience. Your son and husband will have a great memory together!
