When Lived Together

"Life is better when lived together."

(Volvo's new slogan, another reason to buy a Volvo station wagon one day FAR, FAR, FAR in the future...)

Family time!  We have thoroughly enjoyed the past few evenings.  I think Josh and I both feel like a tremendous weight has been lifted from our shoulders.  Michael has spent every evening outside since Tuesday. We've been to two playgrounds this week, Josh's basketball game, and we've played and played in the backyard.  Our little guy can't get enough of the great outdoors.  And, boy!! does he get DIRTY everyday.  Is this a boy thing?  He's seriously FLITHY each night, which is good...but kinda gross!  

Tomorrow we are heading out for the weekend for some much needed family time.  I know we could spend time at home together, but when we're home there's the laundry, the cooking, the un-decorated house, the cleaning, the organizing, and the YARD clean-up staring us in the face.  

We've been looking forward to this weekend for so long, I just hope we are able to relax.  I don't even care about the weather, it can rain...snow...sleet...whatever!  Just as long as we can spend time as a family. 

I'm not real sure about wearing a bathing suit, though!  (The hotel has a pool.)  Josh said I need one with "flaps".  Any idea what on Earth he is talking about?!?!  A skirted suit, perhaps?  : )
