So we weren't able to use the long weekend to get away but we decided we needed a break! Mostly, at least for Bill and I, we needed wide open spaces! We are a little homesick! It is funny the things you take for granted...we were missing golden fields, tractors, and spaces with few people and cars! Since we weren't able to telecommute to the midwest we just decided to drive in that general direction! We found a place in the Shenandoah Valley. We left after school on Friday and drove there...which took far longer than we anticipated with traffic and bad directions. But we got there! The kiddos were so excited to just be staying in a hotel (its the little things!!) Then Bill had found a great water park for us to go to on Saturday morning. It was so much fun. I wasn't sure that Addison would go down the BIG slides...but there was one that she loved. It totally surprised me. Landon loved spraying water and going down the smaller slides. After having some lunch we took a scenic drive and found a pumpkin patch, state park and some beautiful scenery on the way! We even saw CORN! Both Bill and I got excited the moment we saw it! How sad are we? It was exactly what all of us needed!!!
Water Park Fun!
Landon LOVED the boat rides...it was a lazy river and his favorite!!
Going down the BIG slide with Daddy!
The "frog mouth" as Landon called it!!
We even found a place for the kids to have a pony ride!
Daddy and Addi!
It really was beautiful!
These are some beautiful kids!
CORN! This is the corn that Bill and I were SO excited to see! Hmmm do we belong in the midwest? YES WE DO!
Kisses for his sister....always!
Happy Fall colors!
We even found someone to take a family picture!!
