Well, we made it to York, PA!! It's almost everything we'd hoped for. The hotel is nice, it's relaxing, the hot tub is great, T is having a fun time - sent me a message that the "peeps are great - totally sold out for kids and mission," so some great time for him (YEAH!!!). I just have one issue: the pool is FREEZING!!! I mean, I'm quite certain someone called ahead of us and asked them to dump coolers full of ice in the pool for our arrival!!
Kt's a fish, so she jumped right in, swam around like it was the perfect pool temperature. Em sat on the side while I blew up her floatie that, even though she doesn't need it, we've forgotten some of our newly learned summer water skills, so it's more for me than her! I finally meander over to the pool and - WOOHOO!! - I'm looking at Kt like she's a total nutcase!! Even Em could only take it for so long before she asked about the "little pool" which I was quite happy to introduce her to!
We headed over to the hot tub, spent a few minutes splashing in there until she forgot how cold the big pool was. Then, without discussing this with me first, we're heading back over to the big pool again - complete TORTURE at this point.
Eventually we all made it into the hot tub, then finally back to the room. I had considered for a fleeting moment just pretending with Tony that he missed the most awesome pool! I'd send him and girls down first thing in the morning, bright and early to take a "quick" dip, and I mean quick!, before we head off to the big pumpkin patch. I just couldn't do it, though. He was already, tonight, wondering if he should just stay here with us instead of meeting all the "cool peeps" so I didn't want him sneaking out early to try to take a quick dip in this pool that conveniently stays open until 11. I sent him a little text message so he would know to just enjoy himself... and that is what he is doing! (smile)
