One of the best ideas ever! Thank you, Renee-- for sharing your family tradition so that we can do it in our family, too!
We implemented a fabulous idea tonight
Five minutes after we'd put the kids to bed, we crept downstairs, barged into their room, and announced, for the very first time: "Get up! It's time for a Pajama Ride!!!"

What a wonderful idea! Your kids look so excited -- priceless.
ReplyDeletePajama Ride? I'm gonna try it...no photos...but I'll try it...and I might leave kendra out of the mix...something about a newly pregnant/morning-sick mom of seven being waken up in her pajamas to get in the car doesn't sound too positive...

How fun! Go Mommy & Daddy :) What a great idea in every way. Love, Q
ReplyDeletePS - Fletch, that is some thoughtful thinking ;)
Love it! Gonna do it! Thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteI am just *bursting* here! We have got to do that too! If only just for my own excitement! It is way too serious around here right now...
ReplyDeleteWhat a good momma you are! They'll remember moments like those and talk about them years from now.... "Remember when?"
ReplyDeleteLoved the OCC pictures, too! WHY OH WHY can't I remember to get ours done?!
I have wanted to do this! Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteThe kids look SO excited. I laughed out loud when I saw the first pic of them in the car - too cute!
So tell me...was it hard to get them to go to sleep after this?

That is FABULOUS!!!!!! I am going to do this!
ReplyDeleteStacy,
ReplyDeleteOooo--I can't wait to do this! I've been scoping out Dairy Queens nearby! =) Thanks for introducing us to Renee's blog, too.
Beverly,
ReplyDeleteI know! Isn't it the *best* idea?!
Fletch,
I guarantee your kids are gonna love it. Do let me know. And I agree- you should let the nauseous mama stay home and rest!
Quinne,
Thanks :)
Joni,
See? I knew people were going to want to do this!
Carrie,
~smile~ I know, it was a real treat for me and Mark, too!
Cindy,
That's what I love about it. It will be a fun memory for them.
And- NO OCC??!??! Cindy! Next year I'm going to be sending you daily reminders!
Stacy,
Oh, I know. I thought it was hilarious how excited they were when they had NO idea where we were going. They were positively giddy.
They were *great* going down after the fact... :)
Melissa,
Welcome! It was so much fun. :) I'm thinking next time we might scope out a hot cocoa or donuts run! :) (Ice cream was a tad chilly for this time of year!) Just think of all the pajama ride ideas one could come up with!
Annie,
I can't wait to hear about how it goes over at your house! :)
Blessings to all of you!
