Our good friends, Bret and Katie, invited us to their Michigan lake house this weekend. Jenn and John, as well as Jessica and Andy also spent the weekend there with us. It was our second time at their vacation home, and we had a great time! This time, there was only one baby (Bo), so it's not a baby weekend :)
We got there on Friday evening. We ordered pizza, drank wine/beer, and watched a scary movie, The Strangers. Saturday morning, the boys took Scraps and Re-Run to the beach. All eight of us spent the afternoon in Saugatuck/Holland, a nearby town with many cute shops and art-galleries by the lake. After lunch at The Butler hotel, we saw the Halloween parade, did wine-tasting, shopped at a variety of stores and took pictures of many black squirrels in town.
In the evening, we went to a local "haunted barn" where we went to their haunted house and took the haunted train. I haven't been to a haunted house in years, and it was actually a lot of fun. Everybody was fooling around in the barn like big kids.
After we got back to the lake house, we make tacos for dinner. All of the boys were cooking and making margaritas for the ladies. Everybody got so drunk and played an interesting dice game till 1 am. We then sang karaoke and danced. It was such a fun adult (no toddlers!) weekend with good friends. It was just what we needed -- get out of the city and enjoy the beautiful autumn color change.
