Last weekend was the annual father and son overnight camp out. As I was getting them ready to go, I told the boys to get pajamas and a change of clothes (which includes socks and underwear)and put them on my bed. Really, that wasn't too long of a list right? Not one of them could remember everything.
Taylor pulled out a pair of wet pajama bottoms from the washer. He forgot the pajama top. And seriously, is it really a good idea to wear wet pajamas to bed, especially if you have no top?
Bennett forgot the majority of the list. The only thing he remembered was a pair of socks, underwear and his pajama top. I guess between him and Taylor they have a complete set for bed.
Owen almost had it all. He just forgot the socks. He did have to take his pile of clothes that he dumped by the garage door into my bedroom. I know what he was thinking "Well, we will be going in the car which is in the garage, so I guess I'll dump my clothes as close to the car as possible." I will give him credit though. He got his clothes before I told him where they needed to go.
Oh and Chasey. Well he wasn't invited. As much as I begged Scott, he told me that the rules state the son must be potty trained in order to go. Sure they do...
Me thinks it will be a long time until I can trust the boys to pack their own stuff.

Love your last two posts! They made me smile and I could so relate!
Only think, in just a year or two, you'll get that night all to yourself!! I just love it when the boys have to change in a locker room or use the toilet. It's like, hey Dan, the boys will need some help in there and I just can't go in there you know....
