The Cabin, Cold Water Lake, and Super Man Ice Cream!


Dear Leah and Logan,

In July 2016, we had another amazing week at 'The Cabin' in Weidman, Michigan. We started our journey after school on a Thursday. We met up with Grandma on the road, and drove 400 miles until we got tired. We got to Weidman at 2pm on Friday, July 7, 2016.

From there, it was non-stop fun every day.

We:

Took hikes.

Road the Quads.

Made lots of campfires.


Went fishing.


Went to Cold Water Lake 4 times.


Ate lots of S'mores.

Invented a new game of throwing the tennis ball in the pool.


Slept in a tent.


Went to a giant Waterpark hotel.


Ate 3000 blueberries.

Had a lake photo shoot.


Protected a fort with Aunt DeeDee.


What a fun week!     Family came and went while we were there, but GiGi, grandma, and me (and you two) stayed the whole time. 


It also became a tradition that every day after the lake, we'd go to Cool Dips for a giant ice cream cone. Logan, you had Superman Ice Cream every time!!  Daddy got the same thing every day too- Peanut Butter and Fudge Swirl.


On the last night, GiGi got us an amazing hotel room at a Water Park hotel. We road slides and the lazy river until the park closed. The hotel bed was a last night treat too...a good night sleep before our trip home.


We got up early on Friday, and we drove the entire way back to Tennessee. We got back to TN around 8pm (we drove the entire way in one day), and it was just in time to enjoy the Chilton's pool party (Claudia, Olivia, and Liam's house).


Phew!! what a week. You guys were both troopers for the entire trip, and I'm glad we were all able to enjoy a great week with some great weather and great memories.  We told GiGi we'd be back to The Cabin next year!!


Thanks for being such great travel buddies,


Love,


Daddy
