Current Mood: Relaxed
Vacation started on the 21st with a late start. Someone decided he had to eat just as we were getting ready to leave. AHEM, I wonder who that could be?! It's ok though, because the drive wasn't so bad since we were traveling on a Sunday. Jayden made the whole trip with only a fussy moment once (feeding time.)

We went to Pine Creek where our family has been going for years. Mommy's parents have been going there since her Daddy was a little boy, and he kept the tradition going with his family. It's so beautiful up there! It's Mommy's favorite vacation spot next to the beach. Mommy and Daddy hope to keep the tradition going by showing Jayden some wonderful vacations there!
We spent the whole week relaxing, eating, relaxing, playing games and eating some more! It was quite cold (as we normally don't wait THIS late to take vacations), but it was a welcome break. We kept warm fireside by Pine Creek while watching the eagle fly overhead and the squirrels and chipmunks fight for fresh chestnuts that just fell off the tree. Most of the rentals were empty and it was even more quiet than normal. (here is a picture of our house, the view from the bike trail beside the house and a few shots of Jayden enjoying the swinging chair.)

From the pictures you can tell that Jayden was extremely relaxed, even though he caught a touch of Daddy's cold while there. With the combination of it being chilly outside and Jayden having a cold, he didn't get to wear his cool sandles or creek shoes to go into the creek with! So we took pics of him wearing them just so he can say he DID have them on during vacation!
We made all our food fresh and even had home made pot pie one night! Mmmmm. Jayden seemed to like watching us roll the noodles out.
The trip wouldn't be complete without a STORY so here it goes. Daddy and Mommy were outside by the creek just enjoying the scenery. Mommy was down by the water taking pictures while Daddy was up the hill throwing chestnuts into the creek. Daddy thought it would be HILARIOUS if he threw chestnuts near the water where Mommy was taking pictures in an attempt to soak Mommy. Daddy threw a chestnut (see picture for the SIZE of these things) and it hit a tree, bounced off and THWACKED MOMMY IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! It hurt so bad it brought tears to Mommy's eyes! Daddy brained Mommy and he felt sooooo bad. Mommy milked that one for all it was worth! This story was added in case there is damage to Mommy's motor skills in the future.....then there is proof as to WHERE it came from!
