Yesterday for Father’s Day, we spent the entire day together as a family. We started the day off by loading up the van and heading to Point Beach State Park to soak up some sun and have fun playing on the beach and in Lake Michigan.
Everyone had an absolutely blast! This was also Ellie’s first time at the beach and she did a pretty good job playing the role of beach bum. She really enjoyed playing in the sand and dipping her toes in the water. I’m sure if the lake would have been warmer she would have enjoyed the day even more!
After our time at the beach, we drove into Two Rivers looking for a place to enjoy a late lunch and stumbled upon the Two Rivers Family Restaurant. We were so happy to find a place that had a great menu and was within the budget for feeding 6 people. Lunch was great, we laughed, filled our bellies and enjoyed being together.
Once we were done with lunch and all loaded back up we made our way back to Green Bay, made a few pitstops, including one by my dad to deliver his gift before heading home to take a break and rest up for dessert and dinner.
Yes. Dessert and then dinner.
Alex took a little nap, the kids and I chilled out and then the inlaws popped over for a quick visit.
Once everything was settled down we made a plan to head to Frāluz Frozen Treats, a new fro-yo and custard shop in DePere. We were all happy with our decision and we had some of the best fro-yo, custard and sorbet EVER! We will definitely be going back for more!
The nice thing about having dessert first is that it made it easier to decide what we wanted for dinner since Papa Murphy’s Pizza was right nextdoor. So, after scarfing down dessert, we grab some pizzas, stopped at the store for some root beer and came home to stuff our faces and then enjoy the rest of our night.
All in all, it was a very successful Father’s Day and we all had a great time!
Hopefully next time I can get a pick with Alex with all of the kids!
