We took our first family vacation last weekend to Deer Creek Lake in Ohio. Our vacation was even more special because it was spent with the Olivigni’s and Hendren’s.
We stayed in fully equipped 2 bedroom cabins. Each cabin could only hold 6 people so since we more than doubled in size a year and a half ago we had to stay in our own.
We had a nice screened in porch with a view of the lake.
They were so excited to be there and were running around all of the place exploring every inch of the cabin.
Carter enjoyed opening and closing the door over and over again!
Lila helping daddy unload the van!
Before everyone else arrived on Friday we visited the beach area of the lake but unfortunately because of all the flooding it was very muddy and not in the best shape. Madelyn is naked because on the ride from the cabin to the beach she got sick. Poor thing doesn’t ride well in the car.
On Saturday, we visited the playground and they all were in heaven. Well maybe even the parents…there are more parents on the play set than kids!
The whole gang!!!
Girl time…Isabella and Lila having a sweet moment!
Carter flirting with Isabella and then getting rejected. But hey at least he still has a smile on his face. He is saying…Ill get ya!!!
And now he is after Kyah! Oh this boy!
Let’s Race! Kyah and Isabella racing on the slides!
Daddy enjoying the slide as much as the kids!
Kyah climbing the monkey bars
Isabella is on a mission
Madelyn loving the slides in either direction!
Carter loved the slide too! He would climb up the stairs and go down the slide and start right back up the stairs over and over again. He really enjoyed going down head first on his belly. Little Daredevil!
This was as close as I was going to get to the 3 of them together!
Playing beautiful music together!
Lila was enjoying the slide as well and liked going on her belly too but she preferred feet first!
Its pool time! We didn’t realize at first that their was a kiddie pool so we tried out the big pool with our floaties and believe it or not Lila was the only one that would have anything to do with the float. But then thank goodness we found the kiddie pool!! Carter and Madelyn were a little unsteady in the pool and I am wondering if some of that has to do with their low muscle tone. The second time we ventured to the pool their were a few little girls that were in the pool too. Carter was in heaven playing with them and he was giggling and laughing while they would grab his hands and dance around with him. It was so cute!
Making smores by the fire doesn’t go so well when chasing three little ones!
Carter trying to blow out the fire so no one gets hurt!
Group shot…Isabella, Lila, Carter, Madelyn, and Kyah. I can’t believe we got them all to sit long enough to get picture!
Triplets on a mission!
Chris and Brad trying to herd all the kids away from the road
Saying good-bye
Madelyn and Isabella
Saying bye to Jason
Im outta here
This mini vacation was a nice test as to whether or not we would be able to handle a family vacation on our own for a longer period of time. I am happy to say that the kids did amazing and were really great most of the time. So beach here we come:0)
