Lake Placid Weekend

We had a really fun time as a family in Lake Placid. It's the only time we've been away as a family without visiting extended family, so it was a special time for us to be together!! We tried to plan things that were fun for Zach and I and for Carolyn and I think we picked well!

On our way up Saturday, we stopped for a picnic lunch before we checked into the hotel. Carolyn really enjoyed eating near the lake, and afterwards she played a bit and threw some rocks into the water. She also really enjoyed climbing on and jumping off some big rocks!




After checking into our hotel and getting a bit settled, we met Sara, a good friend from college, who happened to also be visiting Lake Placid the same weekend! We took a boat ride around Lake Placid with her and some of her friends.





Sunday afternoon, when I was recovered from the run, we took a train ride on the Adirondack Scenic Railroad. It was quite the deal - Zach was free for Father's Day and Carolyn was free since she's 2, so only Diane had to pay!







Monday morning we checked out of our hotel and drove to Ausable Chasm where we did a hike and boat ride.






Carolyn did a pretty good job being away from home, and slept decently at the hotel. She liked the little crib they had for her and enjoyed making it into a little house with her blankets in the morning.

Diane ran the Lake Placid Half Marathon on Sunday! Woo-hoo! The hills were a bit more than I anticipated in my training runs, so it was a bit more of a challenge than I thought, but I finished!!

Carolyn has been really into singing lately. She's funny because she'll sing really loudly in a very funny voice, but then when she gets nervous she'll be so quiet you can't even hear her.
