Day 20

We had a great, if short, day with the Kramers. Chris and Max went with Pete and Steph to watch Josh play basketball in a 3 on 3 tournament (they won the whole thing, congratulations!). I stayed home for the girls and to take them to the pool when they woke up, something that they didn't do until 11:30! I actually was starting to get worried that they had all died in the night (thank you for that particular paranoia Mom). I did manage to eat a delicious egg sandwich made for me by Peter, played with the dog, get caught up on the blog, on my People magazine gossip, my email and Facebook while they slept. They were alive and groggy when they finally got up.

 By the time the girls got up everyone was home so the kids went over to the country club pool while the grown-ups caught up. 

Koa didn't want to miss a thing.

Then it was back into the car to drive west to New Buffalo, MI to meet up with the McHughs. Their new dog (Winnie the golden doodle) joins their family in 8 days so we didn't get to meet her this time around. We did, however, get to have a yummy dinner and then walked to Oinks for ice cream. They have beaten Ben and Jerrys to the punch and make a malted chocolate ice cream with pieces of malted milk balls in it. Very good, though the vanilla malted in Minneapolis with malted milk ball pieces would really be optimal. Yes, we are all going on a diet when we get home.

We tucked ourselves into our 1970's beds (their rental house is stuck in 1972, glass block and mirrors everywhere!) and had a good nights sleep in anticipation of our last day of vacation.
