For Christmas Babe & Pops gave Bo and me some $$$ and told us to pick the night and they’d keep the kids. They told us to treat ourselves. So, we did! Bo took a half day today and we headed to Chateaux on the Lake. We were there in September, so I told Bo this must be where we go on our quarterly retreats. Man, is it good for the soul.
I’ve had Christmas down and been done with it – but the Landing and the hotel were still all decked out. It was pretty spectacular. I will say that the outlets were over winter – they already had Spring stuff stocked!
Guess I got too caught up relaxing – because I only took pics of the gingerbread houses. I will say that after seeing these – I think I have a challenge for Amanda and me next year :)
The best thing is knowing that the kids are having as much fun as we are. Of course, Babe & Pops let them pretty much rule the roost. I received the pic below at 8:35 (yes my kids normally are tucked in by 7:30). Pops made them homemade chocolate candy. This is them eating the spoons. I’ve did the same thing a million times in my childhood. So blessed for them to get to experience the same thing.
So we’ll only be gone for 24 hours – but the time is priceless! Thanks Babe & Pops!!!!!
