Kentucky Ch 9: The End of a Good Thing

Kentucky Vacation Chapter 9: All Good Things Must Come To An End

Our Sunday finished out with some swimming at a nearby pool (brrrr),  jacuzzi time for the girls and then Ryan who actually skipped supper so he could play in the tub, homemade pizza and packing up. Our goal was to be leaving in the morning by around 10:00am and we actually beat that by 30 minutes. 
Not that we were anxious to leave, but life and the responsibilities that go along with it were awaiting. And we were ready, for we had spent a weekend at Shiloh, a Biblical place with a name
meaning "A Place of Rest".

Not that all we did was rest...


 In between the hikes, the windy roads, the theatre, the sky lift, and the muscle flexing,
we found time to harmonize...


…and eat…
(because food always tastes better when you are on vacation)


…and journal and someone gave his wife a manicure just because...




…and soak in the tub on a Sunday evening and 
I was nice and didn't post the picture with all three of my girls in there at the same time because 
somewhere out there is a photo of me just waiting to be posted on Facebook and
 I didn't want to take a chance...
 Stop!
Look!

                                             Or just relax…it's all good. 






So, if you've ever pondered a weekend getaway...

…and found the idea just a little bit laughable...
 .
…think again…
(That may or may not be Aaron's thinking face.)

…and dive right in...

…and remember…
1. A family vacation is about being together.
2. Whether a vacation is big or small, it really is about being together.
3. Kentucky is a great state to explore.
4. When given the opportunity, vacation with the grandparents, and not just for their Monster Van .
5. All good things do have to come to an end, but the memories can linger for a lifetime. 

Love,
Dianne                                                          


TheEnd
