Edgewater Family Fall Trip!


For our annual whole family trip this fall we headed to Duluth and stayed at The Edgewater Hotel and Waterpark. What a blast we had!!! 
 We got there Friday night and hit the water for a bit before having our pizza night. We also did a small celebration for Ian's 6th birthday with cake and presents before hitting the hay. Saturday we had breakfast and swam before lunch. After lunch we played mini golf and in the arcade. We then went into Duluth where it was quite rainy, so some headed back to to the hotel while some stayed and went to the visitor center. We swam some more before supper and then watched Turbo and played before bed.

Harper wasn't quite sure what to think of all the water and noise but she had fun...

Linnea did the BIG and DARK and TWISTY waterslide over and and over and over with me, Daddy or Papa. What a brave girl. I could not believe it! So proud of her :) She surprises me every day.

Breakfast!


 It was very rainy Saturday after but we went into Duluth anyways. Brian's family and us went to the visitor center briefly and then met everyone back at the hotel for supper and watchingTurbo!

movie night with the cousins :)

Linnea is redeeming all her tickets she earned in the arcade for some little trinkets (toys that will get lost but candy that will get eaten) She thought it was very cool to see the tickets going in.


 Harper enjoyed crawling in and out of the bedstand :) I enjoyed a run along Lake Superior before heading home.
 It was a super fun trip that will likely be repeated. It was later in the season than usual but it worked out great. Some year we may go one weekend later to see the Bentleyville Lights!

Meyers Family,
Wow! It looks like you had a blast during your stay and the pictures are just fantastic! It's great that the kiddos pushed their limits and try new things. That is always a rewarding thing to see. Next time you visit we'll try and keep the sun out for you :) Also, a helpful hint: If you are wanting to come and see Bentleyville Lights we do sell packages that include a train ride down to the lights. Some of our guests really enjoy that package as well! We feel fortunate to be a part of your awesome family weekend and we can't wait to see you back again soon! :)

Thank you,
