Weekend Up North

We had a really relaxing weekend up north at the Hofmeyer's cottage. We drove up after work on Friday and got into town around dinner time. After unpacking and a quick walk through the woods, we went into Interlochen for dinner. After Will went to sleep, Phil and I started to get things ready for a campfire. But then we heard thunder in the distance so we decided to read inside and listen to the storm. Saturday was cool and overcast, but we didn't have any ran. We went to the Interlochen campus and walked around for a bit. Traverse City was having their high school graduation there so it was pretty crowded. But we were able to walk around for a while. After Will's nap, we went to a restaurant in Interlochen to watch the soccer game. Will and I left Phil there to play on the playground for a bit. Then we went to Traverse City for some shopping and pizza. Saturday night we were able to have a campfire. We woke up to sun this morning so we went back to Interlochen and Will was able to play in the various theaters. We got on the road just before his naptime. Thanks to Aunt Mara and Uncle Ken for letting us use the cottage for the weekend!

Will was a great traveler. He babbled for a good portion of the trip and ate snacks from his snack cup. Then he dozed off and woke up in great spirits. He also slept like a champ in his pack and play - he even let us sleep in until 7:45!
