We did the whole growing up thing, the responsibility, the home, the kids, the career, the details. But, baby boomers are now between 56-76 years old. We have earned some fun.
Julie and I are planning a girl's slumber party at a friend's house because, well, why the heck not? Here's some suggestions for girls to have a slumber party and guys to have a backyard campout -
Girl's Slumber Party
Invite the best gal pals - on a night when you or one of them has the house alone - no boys allowed!
Activities to keep the girls busy
Pillow fight

Boy's Backyard Campout
Get you or one of your friends to have the house to yourselves, and invite the buddies over for an adult version of the childhood backyard campout.
Start with an 8-man tent (you might as well have one on hand anyways because they are going to want to take this ritual on the road)
Don't forget inflatable mats
What to do -
Firepit - for cooking and telling stories
Ingredients for s'mores
Beer - lots of it - consider an interesting cooler situation like a wheelbarrow filled with ice and beers
Music to set the mood-
John Cougar
The Beatles
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Clint Black
Jimmy Buffett
Johnny Cash
Bob Dylan
Led Zeppelin
The Beach Boys
The Rolling Stones
Activities -
Scary stories around the fire
Flashlight tag
Play guitar
Clean some fish and grill them
Play cards
Project movies on a sheet hung from a clothesline
Battleship game
Do henna tattoos
