So Thursday morning Presley woke up at 7:30 and threw up?! WTH? She was running a fever and just slept. Well, we all slept in again. Steve took Piper with him to get Spudnuts (super good donuts at a place in Okoboji). Piper didn't want to leave Presley alone and all Presley wanted to do was lay on the couch, watch TV, play with her barbies and sleep. The water in the lake was dirty from the rain the day before I decided to take Piper to the local splash pad (to keep her busy and away from Presley!)
She was only interested in one water fountain.
I got the perfect picture of her peeing like a boy! HA!
She mainly enjoyed the playground and swings over the water, but it was good for us to get away for an hour!
Friday started off like Thursday. Presley throwing up about 7:30 and then again about 10. Piper slept until after 11...I even went in and put my hand on her back at one point to make sure she was still alive b/c it just didn't seem right that she was still sleeping!!!The weather was HOT and with almost no wind and honestly it was hard to stay outside for very long, so good thing the kids wanted to stay inside. Presley did start to feel better about noon, actually started eating and coming outside!
We just hung out and then as it turned out about 4:30 we decided we were going to pack up and head home! Normally we leave early Saturday morning, but almost everyone was leaving Friday night and we thought it would be good to get home, get unpacked and have all weekend to do laundry and recover before going back to work and daycare!
We got home about 9:30 and all took showers! Oh it felt SO good to take a good shower without having to put bug spray on afterwards....and then sit in camp fire smoke! So none of us got to sleep before 11 but we all slept in anyway!
Saturday was alot of laundry, cleaning, organizing, grocery shopping....then we met mom, dad, Holly, Boston and my Aunt Ellen from Wisconsin at El Mariachi for dinner! It was nice to have dinner with everyone and talk. Then we went back to my parents house and talked some more....then of course th girls didn't get to bed until after 10! (Monday morning was going to come as a SHOCK to all of us!) Our plan was to wake them up by 9 Sunday morning, but of course I didn't wake up until 10. So we got up, got ready and met my parents at 1908 for brunch at about 11:15. The girls were actually pretty good and we were able to do some more talking, which we don't do with my parents one-on-one very often. The weather was perfect and we were able to enjoy the patio with no one else around!
Overall our vacation was a success! Lots of laughs, good time and memories! Now back to reality!
