Spring Break - Broken Bow

Our 3rd annual Spring Break Broken Bow trip did not disappoint.  Our kids had a month long countdown and started packing their bags weeks before we left!  They were just as excited this time around as the first year!  I can't imagine our spring breaks without Broken Bow!  Three days of friends and nature!  

Our first evening always consists of pizza at the Grateful Head!

Every year we test out a new activity, this year it was a 2.5 miles canoe trip!  Super fun and relaxing!
Safety first . . .



I loved this view of my little paddlers! 


Every trip to Broken Bow consists of a fun hike!  This year we tried out a new hike called the Friends Trail.  Perfect name for our crew!





And every hike ends with well deserved ice cream!
The boys also did some fishing!  Biggest trout to date we have caught!
Another huge hit was the escape rooms!  We all escaped just in time!

The days and evenings also consisted of walks around the neighborhood, hot tubbing, campfires, smores, storytelling and most importantly Big Foot hunts!





We ended the trip with a leprechaun trap for St. Patrick's Day morning.  No luck catching the little guy but we did get all his goodies!
We were extremely lucky to go on our Spring Break trip.  Right before we left the Covid-19 pandemic started spreading across the U.S.  People were in panic and the markets completely crashed.  Airlines stopped flying and trips were being cancelled.  While were in Broken Bow we found out school was cancelled for the remainder of the year.  We lived up our BB days outside, knowing it could be our only trip of the year!  These neighbors are now our people riding out Covid-19 together!!!
