Getaway . . .

Mom and dad had a relaxing getaway at the Chequamegon Hotel in Ashland, WI to celebrate our 4th anniversary (8 years together!). The hotel is right on Lake Superior, so our room had a pretty view. It was great to catch up and have time all to ourselves. However, it soon became apparent that the only things on our minds were our kiddos. Trav couldn't go 3 minutes without imitating something funny that he had recently heard Ethan say.
When I returned to Grandma's house to pick up the kiddos, I found a hot, sweaty, filthy dirty little boy who looked like he had grown about a foot since I last saw him!

Ethan had a blast at Grandma's house playing with his cousins - he especially enjoyed the sandbox as you can clearly see from the picture below. Judging by the amount of sand he seemingly consumed over the past couple days, I'm thinking we're going to have some interesting diaper changes tomorrow! (Macie, our little angel, was in the middle of her 4-hour nap when I came to get them - when she awoke she had a big smile for mama - Awww . . .)
When we got home, Ethan enjoyed reading his new "digger" book and excitedly repeated, "New Book! New Book!" (This was, obviously, after a very long bath!)
