Swimming at the Lodge

My Mom and Dad took off on a little get-away to Pere Marquette Lodge and they invited us to meet them the next morning for a swim!!  The kids could not have been more excited or had more fun!!

After some swimming in the pool, we explored the lodge!  I have so many memories of time spent here with my family...and then from celebrating our wedding reception here.  It's just a special place!!

We changed clothes after our exploration and took off to visitor's center.  DAd showed Owen lots of cool fossils and bones.  They played in a replica eagles nest (which is HUGE!) and we enjoy meandering through the lodge grounds on a really pretty day!

They may or may not have knocked a branch off this thing...and picked it up and put it back on.  Shhh...I won't tell if you don't!!

Our last stop was a Grafton eatery for a lunch. We ate while watching some boats go by on the river.  A perfectly awesome summertime adventure!! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa :)
