The Samuelians offered to let us use the Deer Valley Club, and I jumped on it. I have had a little bit of hormonal craziness over the last month. My doctor said it might be Peri-menopause, but I think it might be “end of the school-year recovery”! Whatever it is, I was really looking forward to a few days with just my kids. And there isn’t a better place than Deer Valley to forget real life, and hop into a relaxation / fun mode.
My kids nailed relaxation.
And they nailed fun!

One amazing memory that came out of our Deer Valley stay, was the UNO playing. We played well into the night, and got up early to play more. While we were playing, Scout developed a song that` he sang over and over, that we were all dying over!
It started out with “Camino Capistrano”. He sang it with a bit of a Spanish accent, and then continued on with street names, city names, and names of different locations. Then when he stopped the song, there would be a pause…then he started up again with Camino Capistrano. We would burst out laughing every time! The best part, is that he was singing it very mindlessly. It is the same way when he does his homework — he sings mindlessly while working. So while he was playing cards, he sang. We all started giving him more city name and street names, and he just added them in at his leisure. It was the funnest card-playing jam session EVER!
“Camino Capistrano, Stonehill, Dana Point….”and it went on , and on, and on!
