Griswolds Do Fredericksburg

On the 26th, we left to go with my side of the family to Fredericksburg for a vacation.  The Cromarties, Blandas, and Olivers packed their bags and headed that way.  The drive was not bad (despite a small aruguement on which route we should take) and the kids were good.  The place we stayed was awesome!!!  We had what they called the large house and then we had to get a small cabin too due to the number of people.  The cabin was pretty neat, as it was a pre-Civil War cabin and had a lot of history to it.  They had horseshoes, swings, a firepit and smores.  Granny Griswold starting feeling ill the first night and had a fever.  Little Miss Bentley was her bunk mate and she cried all night long, so that didn't help matters.  Bentley also would not even make eye contact with ANYONE but me and her daddy.  This became EXTREMELY annoying to me.  Everyone in our family just loves she and Riley and she wants nothing to do with anyone.  Mom ended up coming down with the flu.  She had 102.6 fever at one point.  We got her some medicine and quarantined her in the cabin.  On Monday Shawnda started throwing up and she threw up for what seemed like days and ended up going to the hospital for some IV fluids and medicine.  Despite all of the illness floating around, we all had a good time.  We enjoyed the shopping and a lot of good food, movies, playing wii and just visiting.  It also snowed on Tuesday but wasn't cold enough to stick, but it was still pretty coming down. It was a great time and I am blessed with a good family and I love them so much. 

I only got pics of the snow and they can be seen in the previous post.
