Road Trip!!!!!

I am leaving tomorrow morning right after my morning bus routes with my daughter for our third annual ROAD TRIP! Up to Moscow Idaho to the U of I where my son is a student. It is MOM'S WEEKEND! Wooo Hoooo! Party! lol It is about a 5 to 6 hour drive and I really enjoy the time with Missy one on one. We talk about everything and listen to music REAL loud.
Steven (the son) is in Sigma Kappa Fraternity. On Saturday they do a nice dinner then have a silent auction on baskets the parent bring. This is my basket this year. The Oops gift basket. Notice the label on the wine...Oops. I look all year for funny wines. (Last year it was Trailer Trash. ) I also typed up a card.


This Oops basket is for any occasion you have had an oops moment and need to make up for it! Just clip appropriate oops note sign it with I love you and your name.
……………………………….....................................................................................................
Oops! I forgot you birthday!

……………………………….....................................................................................................
Oops! I forgot our anniversary.
……………………………….....................................................................................................
Oops! Sorry I fell asleep.
………………………………......................................................................................................
Oops! Sorry I did not call I was going to be late and you made such a wonderful dinner I could tell by what was left on the wall. By the way I can get the candle wax off the dinning room table.

………………………………......................................................................................................
Oops! Me and my big mouth, I meant to say was NO! honey that outfit does not make your butt look big.
………………………………......................................................................................................
Oops! This basket is to say I’m sorry I walked in the room?
Didn’t notice your haircut?
For breathing too loud?
Anything I might do or not do?

I think it should go for some money. There is two bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon Oops wine, fancy crackers, cheese spreads, wine glasses, stuffed olives, summer sausage, smoked oysters and some real nice Lindt chocolates Dark to milk. Something to appeal to everyone's tastes.
Spring is finally hitting. These are pictures from the front door. That is winter wheat green on the hill and in the closer field you can't see it quite yet but tiny onion hair is poking through the dirt. The cherry orchard to the far right on the hill is just now starting to bloom.


Dh rototilled this part of the lawn and wants to put some new lawn seed down but it has been too windy. Happy Happy spring!
Can't wait for this trip! We always have fun! I will take pictures, none too incriminating. lol

  3. I hope you have a fantastic time with your daughter on the road, and fun once you arrive to see your son.

    Make sure you stash the basket in the trunk for the drive! Or you might have an "ooops, I ate and drank the gifts in your basket on the drive over here!" type basket (kidding, of course).

  5. Have a great time. By the way, I suspect your son is a member of Kappa Sigma, not Sigma Kappa. Sigma Kappa is a sorority. Kappa Sigma is a fraternity. Although he might wish he lived with a bunch of college aged women, I suspect he's not.
