A Weekend in Wisconsin

This past weekend we headed out on an adventure and headed northwest towards Oak Creek, WI. My dad's job currently has him working at the Caterpillar plant in South Milwaukee. Last weekend my parents met here in Clarksville and my mom headed back with my dad. They wanted to take Henry back with him and it worked out well that the following weekend was a four day so we would be able to travel up there and pick him up. Henry had a great week at Mimi & Papa's and soaked up the one on one time he got every day! On Friday morning Brandon, Peighton, Scott and I headed out and made the journey without too much trouble and arrived about 9 hours later in Oak Creek. Henry was so happy to see us and we were to see him even P! That night we had pizza for dinner and a quiet night in the apartment. Saturday Brandon, Papa and I took Henry to the park and let him play while Scott took his morning nap and P had some bonding time with Mimi. Then we headed to the Apple Holler. It was a very neat place. They had a restaurant where we ate a yummy lunch. But they also had a petting zoo, a maze, a playground and lots more activities for the kiddos. After lunch, we let them play out there for well over an hour. It was lots of fun for all of us! That night my parents watched all 3 munchkins so Brandon and I could have a date night. We went and explored downtown Milwaukee and had an amazing dinner at Rock Bottom Brewery. Then we did lots of walking around. It was so nice to just spend some time together! We really appreciated it :) Sunday morning we woke up and checked the weather and they were calling for some snow that night. We made the decision to head on home after lunch due to the unknown with the weather forecast. My dad had to go to work for a few hours so while Scott took his morning nap Brandon & I took P and Henry back to the park until time to meet my dad for lunch. We loaded up the car, ate lunch with Mimi & Papa then headed back out on the road. It was very windy most of the drive and it rained the rest of the trip after we stopped for dinner. But luckily the kids did well and we were home by 930 that night. We had a great visit and enjoyed getting to see another part of the country :)
