Haliburton Weekend

 This past weekend we decided to pack up and leave the GTA. We headed north to my Dad's house up in Haliburton. He lives there during the week for work and so he rents out this cute little cottage right next to Sir Sam's ski hill. It makes for a great getaway for us!

Saturday morning we went for a great little hike around the Sir Sam's ski hill area. They were hosting a road/trail race for the locals and we got to watch parts of it during our hike. We bought a Snugli for Grayson as we left ours at home. We had a friend give us theirs and go figure, we left it at home. So we had to purchase another one on the way up to Haliburton.

 We were able to enjoy some spectacular weather and sunshine. We took in wake boarding on Head Lake and some dinner at McKeck's.

We visited Geoff's friend from high school who owns the Bonnie View Inn just off the main drag (if you can even call it that) in Haliburton. If you are looking for a cute getaway....may I suggest the Bonnie View Inn. It's adorable. The rooms are great (you can also rent cottages) and the food is some of the best you'll find in the area (Andrea's husband is a fabulous chef).

Mira coincidentally stayed next door to the Bonnie View Inn with her Dad's side of the family (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins) for 4 days so I was able to pick her up Sunday morning and take her to Bonnie View Inn and let her play on the giant water slide and trampoline.

Geoff and I got our little romantic getaway (with a 3 1/2 week old attached to our hips) and then we were able to spend some time with Mira on the Sunday. I couldn't have asked for a better weekend :)
