Early Independence Day

That's right. Independence Day came early this year. At least it did for the boys. Demi did a great Mom thing today. She took both boys and 3 of their buddies to Canobie Lake Park for a day of fun. The boys had a half day of school. She picked them right up at school and headed up to NH. The Fab Five had the run of the park. Sure there were some field trips to contend with. But it is early in the season and not all that packed. The issue Demi had to contend with was the divide and conquer. The older boys would want to go to rides while the younger boys went to others. The older boys had their cell phones. The younger boys had the power of 3, the magic number. Demi made multiple trips, with Gizmo in tow, back and forth to the car for food, dry clothes, towels, etc. The had all agreed on a meeting point if they got separated but it was never needed. In fact, they boys roamed around with such efficiency and responsibility that Demi let them close the park down. They got home at midnight. The Fab Five were sacked out the whole ride home but technically they stayed out longer than the men for Studs Night Out.
