She\u2019s invited three friends to go to the zoo with her, then come back to our house for a sleepover. This is the first official slumber party we\u2019re hosting, and I\u2019m excited about it, even if my body protests.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Our older daughter is going to a Halloween party, which is also a slumber party, so that fulfills the requisite \u201cno siblings allowed\u201d that each of the girls mandated for their parties this year. It\u2019s a busy weekend for our daughters!\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;\">I have so much nostalgia and even envy for sleepovers! Why don\u2019t adults have them? (Um, can you even imagine a bunch of middle-aged moms giggling late into the night, snug in sleeping bags on the floor, bellies full of popcorn and cookies, afraid to turn out the lights because of a spooky session with the Ouija Board and \u201clight as a feather, stiff as a board?\u201d Guess that answers that question.) But I guess in a way, we sometimes do. We\u2019ve rented a house together with friends. We just all have our own beds and bedrooms (bonus if we get our own family bathroom!), we replace popcorn and cookies with wine and whiskey, and we play board games or charades instead of Ouija and ghost stories. Extra bonus if there\u2019s a hot tub!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;\">In a couple of weeks, we\u2019re actually spending a few days with friends on the coast in their company\u2019s beach house. We trade off cooking and cleaning responsibilities, while spending the days on the beach or hiking, or just lounging in the house. In the evenings after the kids go to bed, you\u2019ll often find the adults staying up late, enjoying adult beverages and card games. (Other times the adults conk out early with the kids.) It\u2019s a family slumber party!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slumber parties Kid and adult versions October 28, 2022 The rainy season has officially started in Portland.
