Another year, another fabulous
Brown County vacation. This has become
one of our very favorite and cherished traditions, to get together with
my college roommates and each of our families in Brown County, IN.
Every year, we have so much fun that we end up adding a day to the following
year's trip. And every year, it seems like we have another little tiny person to
find sleeping quarters for. This time, Baby John officially brought the
kid headcount up to nine, but that's only if you don't count the new
baby that will be joining the Browns this October.
We
had a blast! One day, all the moms sneaked out for shopping and lunch in
the charming downtown. We found ourselves in a tiny boutique for an hour
trying on every scarf on the shop floor. Then, of course, we all wore
them around town and had our waitress take pictures of us. Crazy to
think we've been posing for pictures together since we were 18. But when
we were 18, we were wearing "going-out tops" or our sorority letters
and holding up our Red Solo cups. The guys had a great time sitting
outside by the campfire in the evenings; they even set up s'mores for
the kids after dinner one night. We divvy up meals and each family takes turns cooking,
though since Rob and I had just moved into our house less than two weeks
before the trip and were still upside down, our contributions were far from gourmet. Next year we'll trade
the frozen pizzas for something that has goat cheese or pine nuts. I
actually had to
unpack in order to pack for the trip. But a
vacation with amazing friends was exactly what we needed after a pretty
hectic couple of months. We were so grateful to the Haru family who
drove with two kids all the way from Charlotte.
It was another wonderful BroCo!
