We found an ad for pony rides and decided to take Lucy, since she is really into animals right now. We drove and drove and drove, so we started to worry it would be one horse in a little oval for five minutes. We were super surprised to drive up and find a huge working ranch, Lucy was in awe and could not soak up enough of the ranch life.
Our cabin on Lake Shafer was so much fun. Lucy has been asking for weeks to go fishing, so we finally got her a pole and taught her how to fish, no luck the first day but she loved playing with the worms. Sunday morning I think Lucy's head was still on her pillow and she was asking to go fishing again, so we bundled up and decided to be the first with our pole in the water. We hooked him and Lucy was screaming, all the guests came out of their cabins to witness her big catch. We let Walter go back in the lake, but Lucy did ask to pet him first.
We also spent an afternoon at the Indiana Beach amusement park. Lucy got to ride most of the kiddie rides herself...a big step for her and a tough one for Mommy, hard to let my baby go do something that seemed a bit dangerous. In the end I was glad we let her go and she really loved it.
I could go on and on about our trip, but I'll just write about two more bliss moments... Sitting in the shade soaking up the fresh air with Violet in my arms taking a nap and taking Lucy on the paddle boat was also surprisingly peaceful, even my go go little Lucy sat still and soaked up the lake life!
