12/13 October



The Weekend Lens.....Attitash resort, New Hampshire
WE made it!  The trip we planned months ago to celebrate the birthday weekend.  We got to do the super fun mountain slide...TWICE, mountain coaster and jumping pillow.  WE got to go for a walk in the woods.  WE got to swim in the totally awesome heated pool and hot tub.  We got to eat dinner out in some of our favorite places.  WE shopped a tiny bit.  We saw some beautiful fall foliage.  T and J hiking "up the cut" 

AND....for the story that the pictures don't tell....

We almost didn't go, in fact we were in the ER on Friday with L (only way to get a quick appt. with a neurologist)
When we did decide to go we were rushed and packing trough the tears of finding out that L was not going to be allowed in school until we iron out some details with him medically,
We got there much, much past bedtime.  
waiting over an hour and a half in the slowest line ever for the mountain slide (no wonder they put the "beer window" right there)
One really bad meltdown and a few more little ones. (stuff that is totally out of the control of regular parenting)
Grumpy faces and mean words on the "fun" family walk.
The Two full cups of apple juice spilled everywhere at dinner after waiting 45 minutes for a table.
Needing to order a special hot chocolate wherever we went.  
Yeah, so not the best family vacation ever, but still glad we went.
