for memorial day, g & i escaped "the city" and spent the weekend up in midway.
i've
been staying at the homestead at least once a summer since i was a
little girl & the resort holds tons of great memories for me. it's always nice to get away for a little while and enjoy some fresh (pollen filled) air.
and while we are talking about pollen, let's discuss my allergies for a moment.
seriously, they are out of control. my nose is a faucet.
think gjo times 10.
yes.
anyways, despite my cracking-from-all-the-tissues nose, we still had a lovely time.
we
played board games, roasted marshmallows, swung on the swings, ate
lunch by the pond, played soccer, found baby skunks, saw a movie, swam
in the pool, ate out, went to an outdoor concert, went horseback riding
and just enjoyed the long weekend.
thanks fam, thanks mom & dad, thanks midway...i love you.
Jealous! Love the pics of your family - you've totally caught the love everyone has for eachother!!
ReplyDeleteWe were also in Midway this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous that looks like it was a lot of fun!
ReplyDeletepretty sure my next step in life is to try the reeses smore. WOW. I have tried the Caramello smore however, and it is to die for...literally. I can only imagine a reeses. P.S. what! Holy cow Morgan is getting so big...I havent seen her since I was in the family ward and she was a tiny baby. Where does time go? I hate it.
ReplyDeletewhat a fun time. I'm glad you guys had a good weekend.
ReplyDeletep.s. sorry about your allergies :(
It's sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I totally want to try staying out there sometime.. I've never had the chance but it looks like a ton of FUN! I'm glad you and G had a good holiday!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun. I have NEVER been to the Homestead... I'm thinking I need to go soon. And yes, Reese's are heaven in a smore.
ReplyDeleteYes, we still have the flying tube (the Manta Ray) although it is banned in all national parks. Umm yea that probably means it's dangerous and we shouldn't ride it anymore - but Jesse is crazy and we still whip it out every once in a while (he wears a helmet now - which doesn't make him look special ed at all). And yes, those trips to Powell on the Royal Sunrise were so much fun! And the ones to Ticaboo too... you can't really go wrong in Powell. Ahhh the good old days. We should do it again sometime.
ReplyDeleteThat trip was heaven. So nice to get away and spend time with the fam! I love your pics. I'm stealing some! Your right, I had no idea you took that picture. I love it though! Kate looks sooo happy. Good times!
