Wisconsin- A little slice of Heaven


We were headed out to Minnesota to see Aunt Nellie marry Jordan so I decided to take the kids out of school early and stop in Wisconsin first.  Safra and I planned to meet there at her Grandparents cottage on Lake Wubesa.  Its just a dream of a place.  Its my third time going there.  My kids are great little helpers.  I loved sharing the trip and Wisconsin with them.  



Tired of snacks from flying all day (we had a grand layover! Abby rode the escalator up and down almost 100 times on our layover!) … we stopped and bought some real food and some icecream.  Then got a goodnights rest at the cottage.  I was happy to finally meet her son Orion.  Pretty fun I have still never met her husband!  I have talked to him many times, but considering they lived in Israel most of their married life I have yet to meet him!






It was an all out vacation.  Walks to the grocery store were frequent.  Cookies and milk mid day… ice cream for breakfast.  Candy in the cupboard all the time.  Safra even let me have a few hours to myself and took the kids to the local zoo.  I sat and read a book in the lawn chair over looking the lake.    We swam in the lake.  Took the canoe out a few times.  Watched a few movies.  Did a few art projects because Safra and I have always done art there.  We caught a few (dead floating) fish.  stepped in a little bird poop.  Went to lunch at a crazy fun place and rode their carousel!












We were pretty tired by the weeks end.  Ready to head up to Minnesota for the wedding.  I got a rental car and drove the short 4 hours to her place.  It was a great drive since the kids slept most of the way!
