Family vacation!

 Good news...the computer is working again!

Last week we took a family vacation to Massanutten Resort near Harrisonburg, Virginia.  Ben won a four day/three night trip to the resort and we were excited for a little getaway.  We spent a lot of time enjoying Harrisonburg, going to a few wineries, and stopping by our favorite chip place. 

We arrived Sunday afternoon and enjoyed the resort's barbeque and pizza restaurant and then a quiet evening in our condo.  Monday morning it was pouring rain so we headed to the indoor pool for a bit and had a great time and made a few new friends.

Monday afternoon we stopped for a treat at Klines Dairy Bar!

I enjoyed the dairy free strawberry smoothie and it was the best smoothie ever!

 Elizabeth had chocolate ice cream.

 Ben had a chocolate ice cream cone. :)

And Caroline enjoyed a vanilla cup.

 After the ice cream, we walked around downtown Harrisonburg.

We found this beautiful fountain in a little park between stores.

 They loved it!!

 After our walk, we found this cute popcorn store!

We sampled several kinds of popcorn and left with a giant bag of white cheddar.

Shirley's popcorn is the absolute best!!

 The girls really enjoyed this cute photo spot.

Best. Popcorn. Ever.

 Monday night we went to the water park at the resort. 

I didn't bring my phone in (so no pictures) because I didn't want it to get wet.

We had a great time (minus my concussion) and even enjoyed dinner at the water park.

We stayed for a little over three hours and the girls loved every single minute!

 Tuesday morning outside our condo.

Do you see the two fawns?

 We found this cute park in Harrisonburg and played for a bit and then enjoyed a picnic.

 After lunch we hit up the children's museum.

We spent hours here and it was so much fun!

The girls loved this TV station area.

 Caroline LOVED the ambulance and played in it for 20-30 minutes.

Tuesday night we made dinner in our condo and then headed to one of the playgrounds at the resort.

 The girls liked running back and forth across this little bridge.

 Selfie with my love.

 Caroline loved the little creek near the playground.

 This tree was just beautiful!

 Caroline photo-bombed the selfie that Elizabeth and I were taking.

 Ben carried the girls out of the playground "like a sack of potatoes". Ha!

 That only lasted a minute.

 Then they wanted to be potatoes again :)

Wednesday morning we checked out of the resort and enjoyed a few more activities before we headed home.  Our first stop was White Oak Lavender Farm.  We enjoyed several hours at the farm; checking out flowers, animals, relaxing in the garden, a wine tasting, and a picnic lunch.

 Caroline really enjoyed the rocking chairs

I think she found her zen :)

There are beautiful hydrangeas all over the farm!

 

 Three little pigs, ha! 

 They have two cute rabbits

 A beautiful duck pond

 The girls LOVED these swings/chairs

 I love this picture of us!!

 After we left the lavender farm we headed to Route 11 Chips.

Ben and I found these chips four years ago and absolutely love them!

 They have several varieties and you can sample them while touring the facility.

When they are cooking the chips you can see everything from the cooking process to the chips getting put into bags.  It's really cool (but no photos allowed).

 

 The girls thought the potato statue (?) was really neat.

 Ben and I both scored free bags of chips.

I picked the barbeque chips because they were out of sweet potato chips.

 After route11 chips, we stopped at Aspen Dale Winery at the Barn for a wine tasting.

There wine tasting was so good!!

Every wine was paired with a food picked specifically to enhance the taste of the wine. 

I love wine tasting with my man!

 The girls were a little restless by the end of our trip 

so we made some silly selfies to help pass the time.

Happy Tuesday y'all!
