Road Trip!
We told the kids we had a surprise for them. The only thing we would tell them about this surprise was that they would need swimming suits. We take many trips, both near and far, so they had no idea if we were going across the country or across town. The suspense was driving them crazy!
My Love of My Life and Me getting on the road
Our Boys- yep, they brought their skateboards
and half an hour on the road they still have no idea where we are going.
We stopped at a Pizza Hut for lunch on the way.
We liked the sign so we took a quick picture.
We live in the city so it was quite a treat to eat lunch in a small town with small town hospitality.
It felt a little like being back home in Michigan.
We finally arrived at The Beach in Ottumwa, Iowa.
It is about a forty minute drive from our home, but took us longer because we stopped often to browse interesting gas stations, touristy areas, and to eat.
I love this photo!

I love it!
The boys had a blast on the slides.
The tall one on the left plummets nearly straight down 200 feet.
They free fall for most of the drop!
I was too scared to try it.
The wave pool was fun.
Love of My Life and me....we have so much fun together!
I am so squinty. I could hardly keep my eyes open. The sun felt like it was burning through my retinas!
We stayed until we were all tired and hungry. We had dollar burgers at McDonald's on the way home.
That was a great day! I love my family!
