Florida...unchaperoned

The marching band is heading to Florida. They are going to run all around and have the time of their lives.  I feel a little nervous. But, I mean, how much trouble can this group get into??

Don't actually answer that question.

There's a sport that involves swordplay

When I brought up the idea of the boys doing fencing as their summer sport...

I think they were thinking, "She must be messing with us....that's not a thing."

"And then they got extremely exited and I became the BEST MOM IN THE WORLD" for like two whole days.

It totally beats going to practices and games 2-3 times a week and baking in the hot sun all summer. Instead, I would drop them off and go down the block to the fancy new Hy-Vee and get myself an assortment of baked goods to enjoy while I sat in the parking lot waiting for them. I highly recommend the Mint Chip cupcakes and the Coconut Lime cupcakes. Hea....ven....
