First Family Vacation

This past weekend we took our first "family vacation" with Adrian. We felt a bit like a National Lampoon's adventure - with the station wagon all loaded up, and driving around in circles when we didn't know where we were going (no Wally World though!) But we had a great time! We had perfect weather, perfect fall colors, and a perfect family get-away! And aside from being Adrian's first vacation anywhere, it was also Mike's first time really visiting Duluth and seeing Canal Park too, so it was an exciting adventure for all! And while Adrian won't remember any of it, we think it was the best first family vacation we could possibly have offered him! Here are some of our favorite memories:

Enger Tower & the fall colors

Canal Park & the lift bridge

The lake

The little guy on his first vacation...

...and all tuckered-out from his first vacation! :)

And my favorite part - being together as a family!

We closed off our family fun with Mike's birthday on Sunday. We didn't get to make him a cake because we were on vacation, but we did make sure he got some "Peanut Butter Bucket" from the Chocolate Factory in Canal Park, so I think it worked out and he had a good day. I'm glad - he deserves it! Happy Birthday Mike!!
