The Perfect Vacation
A perfect vacation for me is when we go to Idaho or Canada. However, I'm going to talk about Idaho. I really enjoy the car rides and the laughing in the rides. I always like the restaurant meals too. The best part about the car rides is we get to stay in our PJ'S most of the time!! When we get into Idaho we all get so excited. We are all over the place when we see the sign: Welcome to Idaho!! We are all on the look out for our cousins' houses. How we love our cousins!! When we get there we all have a family dinner and play fun games such as Monopoly, Yahtzee, 5 Crowns, and Spoons. My cousin, Brookie, and I, love to have sleepovers together!! We all visit Nanny, too. That's really fun!!
Aspen Grove
My best vacation was when my whole family went to Aspen Grove! I loved it when my dad's side of the family went and my mom's side, too. Since I don't know which side I had a better time with, I'll just tell you what you could do. You can go on a three-mile hike, you can go to classes, there are mini trampolines, very nice hotels, and you have awesome places to eat!! While the kids are in the classes, the adults get to be lazy and stay in the cabin or sign-up for sports, do hikes, and many more activities. And there's tons and tons of family games! You never get bored. Sign up next year, and have the best family vacation ever!!! Remember, it's Aspen Grove!
I hope I see you there next year!!!
