Weekend Getaway

This weekend we went with some friends to their lake house. We all had a lot of fun! We got down there Friday night, went to dinner and rented some movies.

The kids curled up on the couch in the living room to watch theirs. Saturday we had breakfast then headed down to the lake. The lake was completely covered in ice and was thick enough to walk on.

The kids, Natalie and the dog played towards land, but Johnny and Brian ventured all the way across.

After playing on the ice awhile we headed back to the house. Bella at that time decided that since the lake ice was safe that the pond ice outside the house was safe too. She was wrong.

She fell through, luckily it was only a foot or two deep and right outside the warm house. We got her in the house, got her clothes off, and got her warm again, where she informed us she wont walk on ice again unless Daddy says its safe. After everyone was warmed up the kids played some Rock Band while the adults played Sequence.

Johnny learned an important lesson... He can't always win! Natalie and I beat Johnny and Brian in Sequence multiple times. Sunday morning we just relaxed around the house awhile before packing up to head home, before we left we fed the neighbors horses some apples. The kids really enjoyed this and I was surprised they knew all the horses names.

We had sooo much fun. Bella had claimed Saturday was the worst day of her life but I think she has changed her mind and now she can't wait to go back, and neither can we!


P.S. Thanks Brian and Natalie for showing us a great time this weekend!
