While we were off being baby-free, the guys held down the fort! On Saturday night when the ladies were enjoying a relaxing dinner out, my hubby invited the whole crew over to grill some burgers and let the kids play. Safety in numbers, right?
I can't even describe how great it was to take a breather from the kids, knowing that the daddies had it all under control. They updated us with cute videos and pictures of the action back at home the entire time we were away.
If you want to see what the girls were up to, take a peek at Lindsey's Girls Baby-Free Weekend post!
Where is your favorite kid-free vacation spot?
I LOVE that your husbands did this for you guys!! Think they can call up my husband and "help" him come up with the same idea? ;)
ReplyDeleteYou should just leave this page up and hope he walks by the computer:)
ReplyDeleteLOL! I wish that would work! My husband is very thoughtful, but this is something he'd never think of (or even be hinted to). I'll just have to come out and ask him to do it. Which isn't all bad- the outcome is still the same! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's so awesome that they updated you during the trip. Total dad-type kid watching – tv and hanging :) I don't know if we have a fave kid-free spot as we're rarely kid-free :P
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing that your husbands did this for you guys. I didn't know you and Linsdey were real life friends.
ReplyDeleteGreat guys roundup! We have to do this again next year :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you all had a lovely break.I have not had a break away without the kiddies,the longest they have been away is when they went to their grandparents a few weeks ago but I was stuck at home.
ReplyDeleteThis is HILARIOUS! I love the kids and daddy collage at the top!
ReplyDeleteYou ladies have amazing husbands to do this for you!
ReplyDeleteLove that they updated you with what was going on. :) I think this was a very cool thing for the dads to do. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat guys you have. Looks like a great time by everyone.
ReplyDeleteI think it's so amazing that the guys set-up a girls trip. I read Lindsey's post and you guys had a total blast!
ReplyDeleteYep! Our hubbies have been best friends since HS!
ReplyDeleteExactly!
ReplyDeleteGreat fun! Love the updates from the family why you are away. Too cute.
ReplyDeleteAdorable pics! And I love that Jake is on such a big screen! Keep these beautiful family pictures coming, I see great memories being made!
ReplyDeleteMitch
I love this! Love how the dads came together and gave the mom's a night off! So special!
ReplyDeleteI just saw Lindsey's post. It looks like everyone had the best time! (And, Red does look like the life of the party in these photos.) ;)
ReplyDeleteLooks like so much fun. I love seeing the other side of the "girls weekend".
ReplyDeleteDaddies are very capable and it's nice that you got away for a few days. I've never been anywhere kids free really on a vacation. I'd like to think anywhere with sand, warm weather, and tropical drinks.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like moms and dads had a good weekend! What fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they had quite a bit of fun. I love the 'lets see how close we can get to the tv' game ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, man... it looks like the dads had just as much fun as the moms! Hanging out with the little ones always is!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they were having a good time! Fun memories for all!
ReplyDeleteLooks like dad is having as much fun as the kids. Love the picture of red in the basketball net.
ReplyDeleteI really is hard to "let go" and let the guys handle everything! It was well worth it!
ReplyDeleteTWO nights off:)
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun. I would love a kid free weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat's great that you had the baby-free weekend! We all need a break sometimes.
ReplyDeleteA baby free weekend away with the girls sounds like pure heaven! Looks like the kids enjoyed having the daddies all to themselves too!
ReplyDeleteHow nice of the husbands. I love it when guys are considerate like that
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome! Sounds like everyone had a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove Red's pic in the basketball net! Sounds like everyone has a fun weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love that they sent pictures and videos while you all were away! At least you knew things were going smoothly!
ReplyDeleteAww!! Men being dads. So awesome! Looks like they had a fun time~
ReplyDeleteAww, how thoughtful of him! And all the guys too - that's awesome!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. It is so important to take time away and regroup and relax.
ReplyDeletesuch a good looking group. sound slike you had a great time relaxing
ReplyDeleteLOL everyone had a great time looks like. I don't know if my hubbie could handle it so well and the house would be a disaster!
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed. When I go out of town I put out all the kids' clothes. I'm a bit of a control freak and giving up control drives me crazy, but we all deserve a little time away to unwind.
ReplyDeleteThat is so thoughtful. I am glad you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteWell it looks like both groups had a great time. It was a win for everyone!
ReplyDeleteI swear, even just a few hours to myself is like a vacation. I have never really been away from my kids, but I sure need it.
ReplyDeleteAwww they are so cute. I love how Lindsey had the ladies part of the trip and you covered what the guys and the kids were doing, great idea!!
ReplyDeleteI saw LIndsey's post. HOw adorable! What a fun time.
ReplyDeleteLove that we get to see the guys at home too. What a fun weekend for everyone!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! What fun.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they had a great time as well! I'm so glad you all had a very fun weekend.
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that they send pics and videos so you'd know what was going on at home and could totally relax. When my kids were at home, I never took a vacation without them so I have no fave spots. I didn't really do it on purpose...it just never happened!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they had it under control and now you can go away on a regular basis!
ReplyDeleteReally!! Your Hubs and his friends planned a Girls Getaway for you and your girlfriends? Oh Man, you better keep a tight hold on that man. He is a GEM!!!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome Mother's day present! Those are some smart men :)
ReplyDeleteawe...this is an awesome present from your husband! so sweet of him!
