Boys trip to Duluth


Well its been awhile since I have blogged so I thought I would get on here. This past week the boys had the opportunity to go with Grandpa & Mimi Spoo to Duluth for a mini-vacation. They left on Thursday and came back Saturday evening. They had tons of fun while they were gone. They stayed at a hotel right on Lake Superior, in fact their deck looked onto the lake. The boys got to see many ships and thought they were all just "AWESOME". The Duluth Shipping website has a web cam that points right out at the harbor. It was so neat the first night they were there waiting for this ship to go through which it is the biggest ship on Lake Superior Nick and I actually got to watch the same ship go through at the same time. In fact the boys and my mom and dad went in front of the web cam a couple times so we got to see them live. We even got a wave out of all of them. The two pictures below are the 4 of them from the web cam the first is just the picture and the next has them circled out. This courtesy of my brother for sending me these 2 pictures over email as he was watching at the same time.


The boys also got there first chance at going into a lighthouse. They really liked it but Eli was a little scared to climb up into it! But they thought it was pretty cool. The did a lot of picnicking which the boys love to do!



They took a bunch of beautiful pictures which was great since Nick & I weren't along for the ride. They all had so much fun and they love to go on trips. The 4 of them have decided that they might be making the Duluth trip an annual trip every year. I am so grateful that my parents love to take the boys on trips. They get to experience so many things because of it!
