Lancaster County
We had a good time with the Dunnings in Lancaster County last weekend. We arrived Friday and met the rest of the family(minus Ben:-( ) for a Smorgasbord dinner. They had lots of variety...I think everyone enjoyed their selections. Jay got to eat seafood all weekend(he doesn't usually eat it because I don't like it). He ate other things too, but he really enjoyed the seafood. We also went to the duck pond and playground at the resort. We saw little baby ducks and "teenage ducks" at the pond. They were so cute. Jay's mom came to our room and stayed with the boys after they were asleep so we could go to the hot tub. That was great. We met up with Elizabee and John and played pool volleyball and sat in the hot tub for a while. Saturday we were up early and ate the smorgasbord breakfast at the hotel. We brought Ryan back to the room for a nap(incidentally I fell asleep with him) Zach went to the pond and fed the ducks and geese with Grandmommy. We met up around noon and went to a great sandwich place called Issac's. And proceeded to try to find "Amishville" as Jay would say. Little did we know that the Amish do not live in little villages...they live among the "English"(that's what they call anyone who is not Amish). We wandered around for a while looking for Amishville before we decided to go to a place called The Amish Village which is a tourist place that gives a tour of what Amish life is like(there were no Amish people there). It was really cool and I learned a lot. I won't go into all that I learned, but it was very interesting. We got back to the resort had another smorgasbord dinner and headed for the indoor water park with the boys. They had fun for a while. We went back and put the boys to bed and Elizabee and John came over to play hearts. Went to bed way to late and got up way to early. Had another smorgasbord breakfast and went back to the room for Ryan's nap. Went back to the pond. We hit a cool mini-golf course on the way home. I beat Jay:) The golf course had ice cream(this is Elizabee's dream course I think), so we all sat down and had a treat and then headed home. It was a fun weekend.
