The Peterson's: Almost time for the weekend!

And I couldn't be more thrilled. It's been such a hectic week, but it certainly makes the work day go by a bit faster. I'm done with work for the day, and enjoying an extremely quiet household. Both my boys are fast asleep - one on each couch - and except for the occasional snore, the hum of my laptop and the wind chimes out back, there is no sound. It is fantastic. Cam has finished his second week of Skate Camp, and is pooped. P-O-O-P-E-D, POOPED! I drop him off in the morning, Bryan picks him up, and he usually falls asleep in the car on the way home. He'll have a bit of an afternoon snack, and fall asleep again. Nothing like skateboarding for 6 hours a day, right? He's been having a blast skating and has certainly pulled some tricks out of his hat the last couple of weeks, no pun intended. He's doing great. He's "taking the day off" tomorrow and headed out of town with Grandma and Papa Peterson for a long weekend - he couldn't' be more excited. They're headed to Knotts Berry Farm - and in looking at the website with him, it sure brought back some great memories. Who can forget Camp Snoopy? So even though I'll miss my baby terribly, that also means we've got a weekend to ourselves. The only "official" plan we have is to head out to dinner and see George Lopez Saturday night with some friends. And with Cam gone, we think it would be a perfect opportunity to see The Hangover ... which mom and dad said was hilarious. Now fast forward to next Friday ... drum roll please ...

We're ALL going away for the weekend. Yes, I said ALL. As in ALL three of us. Bryan, Cam and myself. The whole family. It's a quick weekend trip, but when it has been about three years since the last weekend we were away together as a family, well for cryin' out loud we'll take it! We made our reservations last night and are headed over to La Jolla for some beach action, some aquarium action, and of course, the shopping and little restaurants in the village go along with it. Our room has an oceanview with a balcony, so I'm envisioning drinking my coffee there in the morning, and ending the day there with a nice glass of wine. 8 more wakeups. I can't wait. Remember my last post? This one? I'm thinking that just might happen after all. :)
