Wisconsin 2015

 
Wisconsin 2015 was a blast. Bronwyn got to go with us since Becky, Frankie and MaBelle couldn't come.
 
Mom and Heather took us to the train station. I am sorry Coop couldn't go, but he will go on a trip with us soon.
 
The train ride itself wasn't all that great. Lilly wasn't cool with being cooped up and not being able to walk around. The whole "sitting and enjoying the scenery" was taken up with chasing Lilly, telling her to sit, letting her play, trying to get her to sit in the booth and eat.... and much more. 24-26 hours was way too long.
 
 
 
Aww.... the lovely couple.

 
Bon voyage.

 
Lilly waving at anyone that made eye contact.

 
Our room...... Cozy isn't it?

 
Oh yeah...that's Phil's seat directly in front of Bee in the picture above.

 
Ms Sparkle showing off.

 
See the tracks?

 
Oh no, we are moving.

 
Me with my drink in hand and the city behind us. See ya Dallas. Berlin, here we come.

 
Oh wait, you mean this is all the room we get? Yep..... girls on top when the bed was down.

 
Finally, the baby sleeps.

 
Good morning. American Girls get to see the view.

 
Breakfast all snug as a bug in a rug. Booths not too roomy.

 
SQUEEZE


 
FINALLY some time to just sit and eat.

 
Are we there yet? PLEASE CAN WE JUST BE THERE YET?????? One last smile before we get off.

 
Oh wait......another train? Yet, a commuter train that was only about an hour and half ride. Not bad. Except for we missed the first stop at Milwaukee Airport. But got off just in time for Milwaukee Intermodal.
 
And we can't forget the scene out of a movie how we were running through the train station to get to the commuter train while a nice man got all 5 checked bags and zipped it on over to the train. We were going to have to wait two hours for our luggage b/c we were late getting into Chicago.
 
But we made it.


 
The cottage view from the house.

Campfire time!!!!! Sean explaining how it works.

A little selfie with the fire, or what will be a fire :)!

 
"How fast can I run and how far can I get before they notice I'm not here?"

 
Ryan says "Where are the logs?" Dorothy: "There, in the fire." Ryan: "No, the logs to sit on. You have to sit on a log at a campfire." She makes my heart melt.

The girls had a BLAST jumping from the raft. We were two to a kayak and took them out where they played, jumped, swam, jumped some more. It was great fun.
