Yesterday we took the girls on our first trip of the year. We went to Bay Beach in Green Bay, which is kind of like a combination carnival and little kid amusement park.
They had so much fun! In spite of the heat, we were there for a few hours, went on the handful of rides and even went on the little train. The trip was cut a little short because Joel wasn't feeling well due to an allergy flareup. We intend to go back later this summer, and will spend the whole day there. Their prices for the most part are still old timey, so it was very affordable for us. Lilah really liked the train and Gabbie's favorite thing was the helicopters that went in the air.
On our way home, a friend asked us if we wanted to come join them for fireworks since they had a great spot. We decided to keep driving and went down for the girls' first fireworks display! Gabbie did really well and was very excited, even identifying many of the shapes, but Delilah was just a little too tired for the whole display, so we left a little early.
Today we got up and went down to Pecks in Spring Green before going to a family party and Highland. It was a huge hit! They had baby goats, baby pigs, chickens, geese, potbellied pigs, and a variety of other animals as well as many many things to the kids to play on and around. We stayed for about an hour before we had to go and I could tell we were going to have to return at a later date to finish this visit as well.
By the time we got home today, Gabbie was begging to just stay home for the day and not go anywhere until tomorrow. It turns out she's a bit of a homebody like her momma.
I can't wait to see where our next journey will take us in a couple of weeks! I really really love spending this time with my family.
