While we enjoyed our Mommy and Daddy weekend and Lacey enjoyed her Fall Bash, the grandkids enjoyed the Fall Sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Some of the high points of the weekend were "eating as much potato chips as they wanted," "driving the boat while Caden fished" (okay...were there life jackets??), many, many lawn mower rides through the fields, and "riding in the back of Grandpa's truck." Screech...halt....did you say, "riding in the back of Grandpa's truck??" Okay, I know as kids we did it ALL the time, in fact, when I turned 10 I could sit on the edge of the truck bed (but not until I was 10 mind you). So why did my stomach go into my throat when I thought about my precious angels doing the same? Has city life softened me so much, that the fear of riding in the back of a pick up truck makes me slightly sick? Or is it that parenting thing again? I would have to go with the latter. I informed mom and dad that next time, I'd just rather not know. And you know what...I am sure there are things that I used to do that they'd just rather not know too!

I am cracking up right now...I didn't hear about the ride on the back of the truck! Yes, which is a little scary considering my boys can't manage to hang onto the couch let alone a moving vehicle. I am SURE it was a like a ride down the driveway and back, right Dad???
