Check your hands

On Monday morning when my husband got home from work he said "why don't we just leave Ohio for vacation, like right now!"  I was just standing there in complete shock because I had spent the previous evening looking at different local attractions and activities that we could do on our "staycation."  Lucky for us my mom was on standby to watch our pooch, but we cleaned, mowed, packed, and booked our hotel in under an hour!
It only took 8 hours to drive there, so I decided to drive at least half of the trip since Ben hadn't had a chance to sleep yet.  As he was sleeping I notice that he had one of his hands down in his pants.  At first I was like what the heck is he doing, but then I realized that I've seen him do that before.  He isn't the first guy I've known to do it either.  I thought to myself for a second or two and wondered why do guys put their hands down their pants?  Are they keeping their hands and fingers warm?  Are they checking to make sure that everything is intact during their sleep?  With that in mind as soon as Ben woke up I asked him what the point was of such behavior?  He told me that it just keeps everything in line when he is sleeping so he can sleep better.  I guess I was a little disappointed with his answer, but it also makes sense.  If there are any ladies out there who have noticed such behavior with their guys, please fill me in on the answer that they give you.  If there happen to be any guys who read this blog, I'm definitely interested to see what you have to say.
Here are a couple of pictures from our awesome trip!
