Boys Weekend

So for months I have been trying to figure out a way to have the boys by myself for a weekend. I have thought and thought and thought about how to get Courtney out of the house and leave me home alone with the boys. I want a chance to do some dangerous stuff that boys need to experience. You know like getting on the roof, running out in the street without looking both ways, streaking around the neighborhood and drinking a full 2 liter of Dr Pepper and shaving each others head. All the things a mother would frown upon.

Wel I could not think of anything to occupy her for three to four days. Canton...not long enough. Shopping at the big mall in Minnesota...too cold. A full spa weekend...I don't think she would enjoy it (really, who would?). So when in doubt, call Autumn (the sister).

Oh, by the way, did I mention that this June is Courtney's 30th birthday? She has mentioned it to me a time or two and let me know that she might like to do something big for this momentus occasion. Once again, big event=call Autumn (the sister).

Why didn't I think of this before? Combine my desire to have the boys to myself for a weekend and Courtney's big birthday event. Genius! I wonder if...she might...no way...well maybe...she really might...this could work...LET"S SEND HER TO NEW YORK CITY!

Since I am all out of material let me sum it up. Courtney, mom, sister and friend are going to NYC for the weekend over Memorial Day. Lance, boy 1 and boy 2 are hoping to stay out of the emergency room over Memorial Day weekend. Let's see who wins!
