We had a fun time last week with Alaina and Ruby. We thought that now that they are older (almost 11 and 14) it would be fun to go somewhere with them, so we planned this little getaway.
I'm going to take a few days to tell you about it, because - I take lots of pictures, and I don't want to bore you with a super long post!
We left Monday morning, planning to pick them up shortly after 11.
So, we left a little later than planned, but soon had picked up the girls and were on our way.
Here we are, looking forward to a fun adventure!
We were driving to Dearborn, MI which is about 2 1/2 hours from our home. We stopped for lunch along the way and arrived at our hotel shortly before 3. We got settled in and checked the place out before going out to find supper.
The burger was delicious! Bob and I actually split it because each burger is 1/2 pound!
I had found these fun things to bring along for the girls. The Bertie Botts jelly beans have good and not so good flavors and you don't know until you taste them. They wanted us to try them too. Bob got a dirt flavor and I had soap!
The wax bottles were something I remembered getting as a kid. These were sour though - and this is the reaction the girls had to them!
