For our 10th Anniversary, we decided to do something special! We decided to go on a mini vacation to Turkey Run State Park! My mom watched the boys so we could go alone, thanks Mom!!! We stayed at the Turkey Run Inn and went hiking a little to the suspension bridge and some some rocky trails, went to the nature center, played pool and arcades in the game room of the Inn, went for a dip in the pool, had lots of yummy food, and talked to each other without being interrupted by 3 crazy boys! It was a dream! We both agreed that we need to do this more often - get away from the boys... not that we don't love them, but so we can just do something together without having to worry about who's fighting with who, someone getting hurt, who has to pee, and so forth! We also traveled a bit to go see some of the covered bridges in the county, but after 4, we were done with that. They all look the same anyway, so we figured we got to see all of them! haha!
The second day, we went for a canoe trip on the Sugar Creek! It was so much fun! We went on a 5 mile trip, which was easier than expected and didn't last as long either! I was a little sad when it was over, I could have canoed for much longer than and hour and a half! ;) But we had a great time being on the river by ourselves and soaking up all the peaceful nature around us! We only almost biffed it once in the canoe right at the very end, but in the end, only my foot took a swim in the river! haha! After the canoe trip, we went down to Lafayette, because we thought it was going to start raining, to try and find something indoors to do. We walked around the mall a bit, but that was boring, so we headed home, stopped at the Bass Pro Shop and got Pizza for my parents and us to have for dinner! It WAS a great trip and I'll do it all over in a heartbeat!
Happy Anniversary, Dave! I love you so much!
