My mom took my kids for 3 weeks!!! They are heading to S. Dak, WY and other places. They are going with my aunt and uncle, and their 4 grand kids!! they are including Custer State Park, Yellowstone, Tetons, Mt Rushmore and more. My kids have done this trip with dh and I before, but this should be fun with cousins. They called from Western Minnisota tonight. They spend a long time watching the barges in LaCrosse, WI go through the locks on the Mississippi. I told my kids that they have seen it before, and they reminded me, not withtheir cousins!! Lol.

It's hilarious the reactions I got when people found out my kids were gone for so long.

The same things that we did when they were away at camp. We go to eat at places the kids don't like, and watch whatever we want, when ever! Lol. My kids were gone earlier this year as well. Dh and I love it for the first few days, then we look at each other and wonder, "Now what?"!

Our kids were already away earlier this year, so we already had our firlst break this year. You are right to enjoy the quite time. We are lucky enough to have great camps, relatives and grandparents that are willing to take our kids every year!

Sounds like your kids are having a blast.....I hope mine are too. We dropped ours off at a lacrosse camp 1 1/2 hrs away near a state park. My younger one is 8 & has called a couple times while my almost 11 yo hasn't called at all, LOL. DH & I are enjoying the novelty of coming home to nobody making demands of us & being able to spend some time cuddling ;-) if we feel like it! Have to ask them how things went when we see them Thursday.

Whoo hoo that's so cool for ALL of you!

Remind them to ride the alpine slide by Mt. Rushmore and to eat lunch at the little grill at the top of the slides! You get a great view of Mt. Rushmore from up there and it's so pretty!
