We decided to skip town one Saturday and head over to La Torretta Lake and Spa Resort. It was a lot of fun! They had about 5 different splash pads and pools each one dedicated to a specific age range. The girls loved the water slides and Clara absolutely loved the lazy river. She wanted to go back again and again and again.
The kids also enjoyed the small lake beach area. The water was warm for swimming and it was Brynn's first time in sand. The girls amazingly found buried treasure in the sand. It was a
n Estée Lauder lotion container with a note inside buried in the sand. The note was from a widowed wife to her late husband professing her thanks to God and her love for him on their anniversary. It was a very sweet and touching letter.
That was our first day. Then night came and Brynn decided to be Brynn. We could not get her to go to sleep for the life of us. It was all nicely planned out that Clara and Reese would sleep on the pull out sofa in the living room and Rob and I would sleep on the king bed with Brynn or Brynn could sleep on a pallet on the floor. By 12am or some time around then I really have no idea, Rob was sleeping sideways on the end of the pull-out sofa with Clara and Reese and Brynn was finally asleep on my chest in the king bed. Needless to say we were very tired the next day and went home that evening.
