This weekend was my 10 year old son's birthday weekend. On Friday we loaded up a couple of his buddies and headed out to Wisp Mountain and then stayed at a cabin in Canaan Valley, West Virginia. Here is what I learned:-If you want to learn about what your son is "into", let he and his buddies talk non-stop on a three hour trip.
-It is not necessarily good to have your son get scared at a haunted Mountain Coaster. (the coaster itself was very cool, it was the haunted house you had to walk through to get to it, that was not my best judgement call).
-One can gain about 5 pounds if one only eats sugary junk food for a period of 36 hours.
-10 year old boys know how to have fun and stay up late and still have energy at 7am.
-Take advantage of every single opportunity you have to have real spiritual conversations with your kids.
