Our "Vacation" @ Homestead


Terry had to go up to Midway for a golf tournament for Stampin Up, so we decided to take advantage of his travel reimbursement and all go up and spend the night at The Homestead. We all had a great time during the daylight hours, but it was probably the worst night sleep of my life! Rowen was on an adrenaline high and he would NOT sleep. He wasn't crying, he was just awake and hyper, he kept standing up in his crib and jabbering, and bouncing all night long! Terry finally took him to the car at about 4:30 and drove around until he fell asleep. The problem was that he had to get up at 6:00 to go golfing, so we all got about 1 1/2 hours of sleep! The kids loved the pool and the duck pond though, and I loved the crater and the homemade fudge! Overall, we were really glad that it was just a one night trip though!

Wow! He gets to do all sorts of fun stuff with this job. Glad you got a (sleep-less) vacation out of it!

Vacations with kids are over-rated. I never sleep when we all go on vacation. Hopefully that will get better as they get older.

Ya gotta love the Homestead. Such a fun place, but next time, try it without the kids!!

Sorry Stef - I've been trying to leave comments for a while but my computer kept freezing up. Sounds like you had a "fun" vacation. :) I bet now you REALLY need a vacation. And Makaylee's hat is amazing!! :)
