Where do I even begin with this post?? I have hundreds of pictures I would love to share, just proof of God's kindness and grace extended to our family and how family vacation with a 5, 3, & 1 and a half year old can actually be ... well, thoroughly enjoyable!
This was our 2nd year doing this. This year we rented a cabin about 13 miles outside of Duluth and stayed there for 4 nights, and 1 night in the middle of that week drove up the North Shore to Lutsen and stayed at a resort complete with Gondola ride up the ski mountain and indoor swimming pool. And we went up a night early because Nate's dad got us a room in Canal Park with his hotel points, balcony overlooking the lake and lighthouse, it was awesome! I can't emphasize enough how good God is to help Nate and I on these trips. Truly the grace to manage our expectations successfully and the patience to deal with the kids without letting it stress us out is HIS GRACE ALONE! The kids LOVE Duluth and Lake Superior. Sophie and Chason frequently talk about things from our trip and ask about our next "family vacation". I pray we can continue to make memories with our family for years to come doing this.
So here's part 1 of pics (I guess our order will be backwards, this is towards the end of our wk) - Gooseberry Falls, Grand Marais, a couple from our cabin & Canal Park...
