Getaway Weekend

We loaded the minivan to the maximum and trekked to Sheboygan for a long weekend at Blue Harbor Resort. Who doesn't travel with kites, pampers, and a walker?



Mom has always loved a good road trip and took the wind from Lake Michigan in stride.




This was our condo complex over looking the lake. Mom and Doug were in the lower right condo, we were in the upper left with Tina, Majid, Matthew, John's sister Bert and Oma.



When we weren't at the water park or visiting with friends we flew kites and watched kite surfers like the one below.


Housekeeping services were lacking so Matthew and Anna picked up the slack.



Of course, the kids love a good jacuzzi.



"Ho, ho, ho!"


We wanted to get a photo of the kids all together by the cool water fountain. Yeah, right.


Ben, doing things his way.


We had a great trip. We spent time with Aunt Marge, Uncle Jack, Amy and Brandon. Brandon even stayed a night at our condo. He is twelve now and just the nicest kid you could have around. We had loads of fun feeding him- Brandon can seriously eat. I suspect he will be 6 feet by the end of 2008.

That looks like such a nice weekend away. I am impressed by the density you achieved with packing the trunk. I forget how much stuff you need to take with little ones. The condo looks beautiful too.

It was a great weekend.

That level of packing density was achieved only with my engineer husbands superior visual-spatial skills. I stood inside shaking my head saying "We are going to have to tie something to the roof..."
