2017 :: 36/52 :: Door County

this week we had nice weather so we spent some time outside and also ran errands and packed for our trip to door county with pat, kristy, and billy again.

Friday morning we drove to door county. we stopped in Wausau to see grandpa peter, pee and get lunch, then we also stopped at Maplewood meats just outside green bay for Al. we got to door county, drove to the condo in egg harbor, unloaded our stuff, then went adventuring for a bit until pat, kristy, and billy would be there. we drove further north up the coast since we didn't do that last time; we stopped in the town of Ephraim (Al's middle name), found a beach and a playground there to play at. on the way back to the condo we stopped at a custard place that we'd seen had a playground and we were able to buy popcorn to feed the ducks. once back the dixons were there so the boys played, we unpacked, made supper, and hung out til bed time (early since T didn't nap).

Saturday morning we went to Al Johnson's for breakfast which is a Swedish restaurant with goats on the roof. after that we went to peninsula park and explored for a bit. the boys eventually waded in the water, T got down to his undies since we didn't have a change of clothes with for him. they loved it but the water was chilly. we got to see a really cool, big sail boat out on the water, and the boys loved playing on the playground together. then we went back to the condo for lunch and naps. after nap, we went swimming in their heated pool and hot tub! it was wonderful! we had awesome weather the whole weekend but it didn't get over 73 degrees so it would have been chilly to swim without heated water (the wind was a bit chilly once we were wet). then the Dixon's made dinner, the boys played and watched a movie, then bed time.

sunday morning Al cooked breakfast and Pat got nummy donuts. then we went exploring again, this time to cave point park first where it was beautiful!! the beaches were rocky so the trevor and billy (srevor and biwwy) through rocks in and liked jumping over the logs on the path. then we went to whitefish sand dunes state park where we walked almost a mile to the pet beach since we had their dog, dash with us. the beach was beautiful and the water was wavy which the boys loved. they waded again and ran around until it was time to walk back for lunch. billy fell asleep on the ride home and T was super tired so they napped before lunch. during nap, kristy and I went into town for sandwiches and tea. when the boys woke up, they ate and we went swimming again. for supper everyone but me went for a fish boil (my tummy was hurting and I was stuffed). then the Dixon's packed up and headed out, while we went to bed.

Monday morning we cleaned up, packed, ate breakfast and waited for the sheets to be washed then took off. we stopped at a store i'd been wanting to stop at and they had delicious treats, samples, fudge, and cute décor. we bought some stuff, played outside for a bit then hit the road. we had lunch in Wausau at Panera so we got to see auntie althea, peed at grandpa peter's house then drove the rest of the way home. Al napped in the car, but T and I didn't so we took a nap once home. then I unpacked a bit, and we headed over to eat and watch the Vikings game with matt and the kids.

Tuesday morning our windows got delivered!!! and we all 3 ran to sam's club for groceries. then T and I walked over to Jodi's house to play and then walk down to the bus stop for chloe and kade's first day of 4K then we walked home for nap. we all napped since Al works overnights all this coming week. :(




gah, i'm so much bigger this time around, wish I would have worked on my abs more inbetween and not started this one with a gut....
