We decided to take the girls to the lake for a weekend get-away. Friday night we went to the Ft. Wayne Boat Show to see all the new boats coming out for the summer. It's always fun to go there and "pick out" our dream boat. The girls had a blast playing house on all the different pontoon boats and weren't ready to leave. After a total of 3 hours of driving, due to a mini winter storm, we finally made it to the lake.
The next day we started the sunny morning with some Tom's Donuts and the girls talked me into getting down the Lego bin. They had a great time dumping it out, looking at them and then deciding they wanted to play house instead. I think the Lego's were a little overwhelming for them. They didn't have a clue where to start. After playing on the icy lake all morning we took the girls to Acapulco's (mexican restaurant) for lunch. We were the only ones in there! The scene is definately quieter at the lake during the winter. After that our friends, the Hampton's, arrived and we got the girls ready for some tobaggoning at Pokagon.
When we got to Pokagon and the kids saw how steep the run was we were all wondering if any of them would even go down it. But they were all very brave and each went down the run. It's was VERY busy and took us over an hour to go down just two times. After that they were pretty much done and frozen. We headed back to the cottage to play some more and hangout for the rest of the day. It was a great weekend and so nice to get away for a couple days. We can't wait to go again in the summer!
