We started our vacation on Friday with the 6-7 hour long trip to Spicer Minnesota. Nick and I were a little worried about the trip because it is so long, but the boys really did great. DVD players and snacks made the trip bearable! We got to the resort in the late afternoon, got unpacked, and wasted no time getting outside. It was a bit windy so we didn't make it into the water, but found several other activities to keep our boys busy!
On Saturday, we were thrilled that the weather warmed up a bit so we could enjoy our beach! Nick even got his first nap of the week. Conner and Ben rode bikes and got to fish for the first time off the dock since last year. I even let them walk to the end of the dock to fish... I was a little concerned that one of them would end up in the lake, but they did great! They enjoyed playing in the water and Ben was a huge fan of jumping into the lake off of the dock. We skipped naptime in favor of beach time, but the boys exhausted themselves and got a little snooze in before dinner. Nick got a remote control boat for an early Fathers Day gift so they all enjoyed playing with that as well.
Nick... napping and texting... two of his favorite things!
We took the boys out in the boat for some fishing. They are great at reeling in their lines, not so great at the whole waiting for a fish to bite thing! But they both caught their first fish ever Saturday night and that made their daddy pretty proud! It was hilarious to watch their little faces!!! Ben had no problem touching his fish, and for some reason Conner really wanted to kiss his! They were both so excited!!!
What a great way to spend an evening...
