Two days after Christmas we were able to take a short trip to Lava Hot Springs. We stayed at the Lava Spa Motel where we have stayed each time we go. It is a very old motel but it is right across the street from hot pools. Rick and I got the King room with a big hot tub. That was nice.
Skylar and Sarah were the first ones to get there and took their kids right over to the swimming pool. We enjoyed a nice dinner with them that evening at 78 Main restaurant.
We all enjoyed our meals and conversation.
This was a cute picture at dinner of Charlie telling Eric "a secret". Eric is liking "secrets" at this stage:) Really it's just a whispering in his ear but he thinks it's something special!😁
The next morning before going to the hot pools we had breakfast at the Chuckwagon Restaurant. The kids all got to order something special from he menu. It filled us up for the rest of the morning!
After breakfast we went to the hot pools for about an hour and a half. The kids had a lot of fun going to the different pools. I was happy to just stay in the coolest pool (which was still nice and toasty) and just keep my foot elevated out of the water.
That afternoon Rick and I took a drive around the area. We saw between thirty five and forty wild turkeys, five pheasants, and two bald eagles. It was a beautiful drive with all of the snow on the ground.
The next morning Skylar and Sarah went right over to the hot pools first thing. We took the Bomans out to breakfast first. By the time we got over to the hot pools the Phelpses had left. That was a disappointment for the Boman kids. Rafe had said earlier at breakfast how much he loved playing with Henry. We were sad that they had left before we got there. We enjoyed a little over an hour in the pools and then Rick and I took off for home. I think Brach and Kendra stayed another twenty minutes or so.
All in all it was a great trip to Lave Hot Springs. We made a fun memory and enjoyed time with both families!
