Yes, you heard me...Summer is officially over in the Baugher house. Chris has headed back to work and the boys start their 2nd year of preschool ( I can hardly believe it myself). Our last week of summer was spent on vacation. We started out in Sandusky Ohio, at the Great Wolf Lodge...waht a place! It came complete with a waterpark for the boys to enjoy. Boy did they enjoy it...they absolutely loved it! We ate on Lake Erie the first night and the next day hopped a jet boat to Put-in-Bay, an island about 40 minutes from Sandusky. It is a small island and it full of shops, restuaurants and places to see and visit. We rented a golf cart for the day and carted around the island the entire day. We headed to Pennsylvania the next day, with a stop in Pittsburgh. We visited the Carnagie Science Center and rode up an incline to the top of Mt. Washington where we could see the whole city..very nice! We then headed to Hershey, PA. After some nervewracking hotel problems, we finally got settled and visited Hershey Park. We toured the Chocolate factory, watched a 3-D presentation about Mr. Hershey and participated in a chocolate tasting. What a full day!! On Thursday, we got up and headed to Lancaster. We rode a steam train through Amish Country and visited the Pennsylvania Train Museum. We ended the day at Dutch Wonderland. This was the highlight of our trip, that's for sure! Dutch Wonderland is a wonderful place for little kids. They have tons of kid rides and family friendly rides where parents go on the rides wtih the kids. The boys especially loved the airplane, log flume and the frog hopper (which they asked to take home the back yard). We watched a dive show as well, Owen absolutely loved it...
Friday we packed up and headed home. Ugh! I am tired just talking about it all .
We are back to reality this week..boys at Stella's, Chris and I at work...but its the life we love
Looking forward to Old Settlers this week and Chris's class reunion on Saturday (15 years)
Chris starts basketball next week and the boys start swimming lessons in October at Fusion..should be a great fall!
Pictures will be up soon!
