Laughter in the Mountains
How often is it that you actually feel refreshed after a weekend of traveling?
It rarely happens, but when it does happen… it is gooooood.
PhillyBoy and I headed to the mountains in PA for New Year’s Eve weekend with some friends. The plan was to just chill out- unplugged- for a few days and enjoy our company, the fresh air, and relax. And that we did.
I needed a moment to reflect on the past year, recharge, and start fresh.
The weekend was exactly what we needed.
The girls cooked an insane New Year’s Eve meal for the guys…
The guys cooked for the girls…
We had a fire every night…
A serious game of charades (which the girls won- of course)…
Lots of Bananagrams…
And tons of laughter.
Oh, and copious amounts of sweets (it was worth it).
It’s been a long time since I’ve laughed that hard and also just let loose in every way. I was not restricted by any schedules or daily stresses, and I can’t believe the tremendous effect 3 days had on me.
I feel like a new person ready to tackle 2011.
Get ready for some serious cooking….
