Oh well, it looks like my excitement was all for nothing!
We had to cancel our planning camping trip to Belleplain State Forest in Woodbine, New Jersey for this weekend.
Multiple sports practices Friday night, Car Wash fundraiser for the Cub Scouts on Saturday, Soccer Pictures on Saturday, Football pictures Sunday Morning, Football Game Sunday morning and a Soccer Game Sunday afternoon all conspired to keep us from going.
I feel crushed!
We had previously decided to skip the practices and games but the fundraiser and the pictures are what swayed us. Also my older son and I are going camping with the Webelos (older Cub Scouts) next weekend so I didn’t think it would be a really good idea to miss two games in a row!
We told our kids last night and they were most bummed…a sentiment that I completely agree with!
So to ease the pain we are going to have a campfire in our backyard this Satruday night and allow them to invite several of their friends each. My wife and I are also going to invite some folks so we can enjoy some “adult conversation” and some “adult beverages’ while sitting around our campfire.
Until Next time,
Eric The Most Disappointed.
