"How I Spent My Fall Break". By V. Neal

The school district here does this crazy thing where they are off for a week in the fall. So, we had some out of town Neals come to visit us and test out the new house and the new state with us.
Grandma, Bubba, and...WHOA, A BEAR! just kidding, not a real bear.

Now, these next pictures were all taken at a tea room in a castle. We went there for lunch and it was so much fun. You get to wear these fun hats (hats are not normally my idea of fun, but this is a rare exception) and they serve you tea sandwiches and tea (well, we had lemonade, but you get the idea..) This particular tea room holds a special place in my heart. (pretty sure i've never said "holds a special place in my heart" before) because growing up going to colorado on family vacations, we would always go here and it was always my favorite part of the trip. So, it was really fun for me to take my kids there. Thanks to John, Rosemarie and Kristy for bearing with me and acting like the tea room and the hats and all were fun.

Well, John wasn't that great at acting like the hats were fun.

Come to think of it, J wasn't either.

During the course of the week, we did much more than pictured. For example, I spent a good chunk of time trying to get Bubba to stop yelling "POOP!" and "TOOT!" So,... that was fun. Also, we had a few days of solid shopping. This is purely my opinion, but I think a good time was had by all Neals during Fall Break. And their was neither "falling" nor "breaking" of anything at all. wow, I think I've reached an all time low.
