French Lick

It's so sad to be posting this post because that means our trip to French Lick, Indiana is officially and completely over. Boo! We had such a nice time (but with plenty of stressful toddler-induced moments that are inevitable when traveling with small children) and it was awesome to see so much of my family in one setting. My dad did a great job with all of his speeches and presidential (Indiana Dental Association) duties too. I was so proud. The kids did pretty well handling no naps the first day, going to bed 3 hours late each night, and being around so many people all the time. Sebastien was obsessed with Grammy Patty and Papa and wanted to be where they were at all times. I can't post all the pictures (see Facebook if interested) but here are some snippets of our trip.

Below: The next day we rode surreys (bikes for multiple people) to the sister hotel. This is the atrium! Sooo big! Notice how small the kids look.

Below: I jumped off to take this picture of us on the surrey.

That night we saw Heywood Banks, a comedian who sings funny songs. We were front row center and it was soooo funny. The next morning (below) we went with Grammy Patty on a train ride robbery.

Below: After the "robbers" took over the train, we got off and looked at the horses. Genevieve was not afraid of them at all. Sebastien, on the other hand, was clinging to Grammy Patty.

We managed to squeeze in lots more stuff into these few days and we saw almost all of my aunts and uncles, a few cousins, and a few family friends. It was a lot of work with the kids, but it was so great. Thanks Dad and Mom for organizing it all!
