Happy Autumn!!!!



Our anniversary trip this year was to Deep Creek Lake, MD. We did some fishing right off the lake behind the motel. No fish, and the girls got bored quick.

We did two nature hikes, one to Swallows Falls and to Frank Lloyd Wright's famous FallingWaters house. Autumn is simply gorgeous there, rolling valleys and hills bursting with vibrant colors. Unfortunately it drizzled all wkend, and Vienna as not up to hiking in the light rain. Her constant whining was killing our relaxing zen. Laurel was the trooper, she stodgily hiked along and only once complained, 'I cant walk anymore'.

To top it off, Laurel got very sick our first night there. She vomited everything she ingested and we seriously considered bringing her into the ER, fearing dehydration (but not H1N1 since she was responding and not feverish).
Thank goodness, she felt much better the next day. Since we were up all night, and didnt think she would be up for the horse ride, so after viewing FallingWaters, we headed home. As always with kids, it was a fun but rough trip!
