This week was Spring Break at LCC. It would have been fun to travel to some exotic, warm, tropical climate but alas that was not to be. We did make an overnight excursion to Shipshewana, IN, where we spent the night at Splash Universe. Cubby had an absolute ball! The blue area in the front of the picture is the entrance to the toddler pool - 8" deep. Not for Cubby! He wanted to go down the yellow, blue and orange slides. Even the blue slide being a closed tunnel didn't phase him. Claire would go with him to the top, make sure the slide was clear and send him down. I'd be at the bottom and pull him out. Then we would wait for mom to come down. After awhile, he wanted mom and gamma gamma to change places. Yes, another one of those things you only do for your grandkids. Gamma gamma went down the slides too.The next morning we spent another couple of hours at the pool and then on to Yoder's and Lolly's. I found some new Ricky Tim's fabric that I hadn't seen before and a $5.00 bag of really nice batik scraps. I kept telling myself to exercise restraint because Chicago was only a month away.
Friday was also my dad's birthday so we stopped in Kzoo for presents and Happy Birthday Quality Dairy doughnuts. Now it's back job hunting and homework but it was a good mini vacation

You're a good gamma, Lisa. And aren't you ALL having fun! Assume you have your quilts by now and Cindy graciously said she would take yours when she picked hers up. Kari now has my two pink and green quilts for granddaughter Rose's twin beds. SHE can hardly wait! Daisy
It may not have been far-away and exotic, but it sounds like there was something for everyone and you all had a great break.
Water is ALWAYS fun!!!!!! Glad you got a get-a-way.....
HOORAY Lisa, Claire, and Jacob!
I am soooooooooo glad that you got to go somewhere not-at-home and have fun - that's all a vacation is - to vacate where you generally are and be somewhere different. You don't HAVE to spend four months riding a bike across the country!
But I am glad that you went in the water slides - I resisted them for many years (at T'giving with family) and when I finally succumbed, I loved them! Think of all of those stairs as a good work-out!
Good Luck with the job hunt. School must be Real World practice now, eh?
