Off to French Lick

My mom has a friend who has a time share condo in French Lick, Indiana that she wants her to consider buying. So, Mom invited us to come down for the weekend while she stays for the rest of the week.

These first pictures are what happens when you give a 6-year-old a camera and tell her to take pictures of the condo. Here is a lamp in the bedroom...

The very large jacuzzi tub....


Yep, that's right, she took a picture of the toilet....




and the Bible!

We also got a picture of every piece of artwork hanging on the walls, several shots of butts, each bed, all the furniture, the iron, and the microwave.


Here we are right before bed on the first night when Grandma volunteered to stay with the kids while Mommy and Daddy headed to the casino (where we won $84!)

The next morning, the kids did a little more exploring. Here is the sauna that was in the bathroom.

Later that day (after swimming in the pool once already) we took a drive to see the sights. Here are the girls throwing rocks into Patoka Lake.

Our family at the overlook on Patoka Lake.


Here is the condo....we were the unit on the far right.


A little hay bale maze at the bottom of the hill walk before you get to the casino.



How sweet is this? We were walking to the pool (AGAIN!)


The swimming pool was really pretty....all enclosed except for the hot tub which was outside. It was pretty cold in the morning (low 40s) but 70s in the afternoon.

Emma in the hot tub about 10 minutes after a very unfortunate nose-to-sidewalk wipeout that resulted in a horrible nose bleed and a very scratched up nose! (its much worse now.......see the end for a picture from today from my cell phone!)
Miss Morgan in the hot tub. The girls made friends with Josh and Kate, some kids who were also there, and they had a blast playing Simon Says and all just entertaining each other!
After our swim, we went bowling in the resort's bowling alley! Too fun!


Morgan's bowling shoes! They didn't have any small enough for Emma but made her wear the smallest size they had...13 kids, when her size is a 9 kids. They looked like clown shoes and she could barely walk. After her 2 wipe outs and one resulting in a horrible nose bleed and scrape, I let her take them off even though it was against the rules!

The lobby of the French Lick Springs Hotel and Casino.
After swimming, hiking, swimming, bowling, baths, and dinner, we put all 3 kids in their jammies and took off on our 3 hour car ride! Here is Carter putting on his jammies! (I love naked baby butts!)


We arrived home around 9:30pm....all very tired and very ready for bed! The kids all went right to sleep and Carter slept in. Morgan wanted to, but couldn't since she had to go to school. Emma's letter of the week was F so she talked about her F-F-Family going to F-F-French Lick where she had a bad F-F-Fall! (and here is a picture of her and her nose scrape before Preschool....poor thing!)
