Deep Creek Lake Weekend

The last weekend of June, we travelled to Deep Creek Lake to spend time with Dan's parents. The weather turned out to be a bit cooler than we expected, so we did not spend much time in the water. But we did enjoy the peacefulness of the lake while lounging on the dock.... in between squirts from the waterguns.

We also took some walks and the boys loved climbing on the rocks.

On Saturday, we went to Wisp Resort to check out some of their newest additions. Nathan absolutely loved the new Chipmunk Challenge Course, which is a mini canopy tour complete with two zip lines.

Although we had no doubt that Nathan was up to the physical challenges, we expected a little bit of fear and a couple of cries for help. But not once did he stop and ask for help. He was focused and determined and went quickly through the course 3 times! While Nathan was busy on the course, Andrew enjoyed climbing and playing on the new playground.

Thanks to Gramma and Grandad, we were able to take Nathan to the movies on Saturday afternoon to see Cars 2, while Andrew napped. Although it was fun to go to the movies together, the original Cars movie is without a doubt a better movie.

On Sunday, we also tried something new... we played a round of mini-golf with the boys. It was the most beautiful weather of the weekend, so it was great to be outdoors. But I would say that playing mini-golf with a 5 and 2 year old is not ideal.

We've been up to Deep Creek Lake quite a few times over the last 10+ years, and it is amazing to me just how many different things they are to do up there!! It's pretty hard to not have a good time.
