Chalet Adventures

Well, welcome to our house up north..."The Chalet" as we call it!! It was great to arrive on Friday in the early afternoon and have time to get in a dip at the pool!!! The friends that we had invited to come with us couldn't make it (bummer) but we managed to have a great time anyway.
Andrew had to work back at home all weekend so we left him there to hold down the fort. It's hard for a mama to leave one of her "babies" at home all by his lonesome.....
So, anyway.... here are a few pictures of our Friday. The kids enjoyed the pool...even if they forgot to pack THEIR goggles and Dad had to buy 3 cheap pair( and leaky too) at Pamida.
We had our FAVORITE broasted chicken from a bar and grill just a few minutes away...and enjoyed it out on the deck....well some of us did...Luke wanted to eat inside to be closer to the huge bowl of watermelon.
and last, but not least, I just had to show you a picture of our bedroom and tell you a little story.
Check out the walleye hanging on the wall. It was caught in a lake about a mile away....by one of the other families that share the Chalet with us. Every time we get up to our chalet, my husband takes the fish off of the wall and rests it in the corner of our room...EVERY TIME. I asked him about his reasoning for doing this, and he said "Those eyes just creep me out! " Too funny!!!! So, while our family is at the Chalet, the "walleye" has a little time out in the corner.....Hmmmm.
Hope you enjoyed seeing part of our Chalet adventures.....more tomorrow.... including an unexpected vet trip and bocce ball and BUGS! Jill
