Lake George Vacation Part 1



Our first vacation all together was a lot of fun -- no one wanted to kill each other and we are even talking about making this an annual tradition! We left late Thursday night and drove straight through to Lake George (about 4 hours away). We all drove in Kim and Jess' fancy minivan which was nice. We got a good deal at a rather rustic (ie. no-frills, like we had to empty our own trash) motel. It was the closest thing to camping that Carolyn will probably ever be willing to do. Olivia is just about 2 years old now, and since Avery is walking around, they played together a lot more than they typically have. Avery thinks Olivia is so funny! They played peek-a-boo together, and on Friday morning when they woke up, Olivia could hear Avery crying in our room (we were right next door to each other and the walls were very thin) and said "Oh no! Save Avery!" and she looked out the window to look for him. Some of the cutest moments were in the car where they read books, watched DVDs, and took naps:

At breakfast, the kids checked out giant teddy bears:

Avery and everyone look like they had a great time on this vacation! I love Avery with Bert and Ernie and also in the pirate outfit. He is so cute!
