We got to spend 10 days at Waffle Farms for our summer vacation this year (June 25-July 5). And also this year, things were a bit different...my parents and my aunt Carol actually both bought campers and decided to join in on the fun! It worked out best for my mom's side to all come the first weekend (June 26th) so everyone met up at the campground with their boats. We planned another fish fry, but rather than catching our fish (we didn't have time), we brought some fish from home in our stock pile. Uncle Rusty and Aunt Julie came on Friday with Brandon, Lexie and Ryan. Uncle Kenny and Aunt Sharon came on Saturday. Everyone stayed til Sunday since the weather wasn't exactly perfect. In fact, Saturday was a complete wash - it rained all day and was actually like 70 degrees!!!! We checked out a little restaurant on Coldwater Lake (Barefoot Grill) with the family to spend some time together. Sunday was better. A bit chilly but it was sunny. We did all our lake fun on that day.
We allowed Gabi to have a friend come up on Tuesday through Friday...Kylee Stapleton from school cheer came and had some fun the remainder of the week. Luckily it stayed dry for us...only a bit chilly. Highs were only in the 70's. It's a good thing we had some girls who aren't afraid of getting in some chilly water. We did keep busy though while it warmed up. We actually took the kids into town to go cart one day and we also went to eat at the little bar with our boats (which was very good!) My parents and Chad/Amber and family all stayed through July 5th so we had plenty of visiting and entertainment.
We ended the week with just the family (my parents and Chad/Amber and family). Kylee went home on Friday evening. We actually got to watch fireworks on both Friday and Saturday evening over the lakes. It was beautiful. All in all, it may have been a bit chilly sometimes, but we had lots of fun and got plenty of sunshine in the end. We all came back nice and tan!!! Very thankful for that R&R.
