The second night Uncle K grilled us some hamburgers. They were delicious!
The way the house was laid out made it look like it used to be two places turned into one. There were basically two separate houses attached with a breezeway. Here is one of the kitchens and the one we used to make our food since it had the bigger dining table nearby.
This is the other kitchen.
Aunt Karen read the girls bedtime books one night.
We all got into darts while we were there! T showed Mama how to play and she did really good!
In fact she got the highest single score of the trip! :)
After the girls went to bed we played cards and talked.
I went in to check on them and found Buggy’s pillow ejected and her barely hanging onto the end.
My camera wouldn’t focus in the dark but I thought Peanut looked so funny here. I guess she dealt with the heat by unzipping her pjs. Haha :)
It was a great place to stay. The big bummer was that part of the reason we got this place was because they had built a new pool that was supposed to be ready by June. Unfortunately they had problems with their contractor who messed up big time and they had to redo a bunch of stuff which made the pool un-useable.
Not only that but there were trenches and wires all over the yard so we couldn’t let the kids outside at all. :(
They did give us a discount for the trouble.
Our last morning was also the morning of my birthday! Noni put candles in my bagel…trick candles! I’d never actually seen them in person before. They would blow out and then start sparking and light back up! The girls loved it!
They wanted to try to blow them out too.
After we got ready and all packed up and checked out we headed back into town for a little more shopping and lunch before we left.
The favorite was the Christmas store. The girls about lost it when they saw this window display of Frozen stuff. They were so excited!
I got some cute ornaments to commemorate the trip. The girls favorite part was the wide selection of nativities. They loved seeing baby Jesus.
Bug and Boo begged me to take their picture with these flowers.
After shopping we headed to another lunch at a little German café. They had soups, sandwiches, and a variety of “wursts”: bratwurst, veggiewurst, klockwurst??…all kids of them. Haha :)
Love how Peanut is peaking over Daddy’s shoulder. She got carried around all morning. Any time she got put down she would find someone else and sweetly say, “Can you please pick me up? I’m a little tired.” and of course all the adults said yes. :)
We had to get one big group shot before we headed out. Such a fun trip!
