First Fuchs Family Up North Vacation

The first Fuchs up north vacation is hopefully not the last. The boys had so much fun. I'm already looking for places next year. We went to Three Lakes, WI, near Eagle River. The only disappointing part was the fishing. We only went out once, but it was hard to find a good spot and only Jeremy caught anything, so we didn't even try again. Not to mention, all I do is untangle knots, change out rigs and lose lures (thanks to the kiddos). The last few days were also not great weather.

Otherwise, boating, swimming, tubing, sparklers, campfire, s'mores and all the north woods fun you'd expect. We also caught some frogs and a snake, which was cool. And I brought up some change, so all the kids could play poker. Guts was a real hit and the boys quickly spent their winnings in town on junk. I mean on tiny wooden boxes and fidget spinners.

I probably shouldn't forget to mention that the Fuchs brothers beat the in-laws (a.k.a. outlaws, a.k.a. Paul and Dan) in a series of yard games consisting of beersbee, Kan Jam and cornhole. Some close games, but the good guys prevailed. It didn't come without sacrifice though as I fell on my wallet and keys and got a huge bruise. I'll post the pic, but feel I do have to apologize for how ugly my upper man thigh is...not my best feature.

Keeping a bunch of kids behaving and having 10 adults in one house isn't always easy, but knowing how much fun the boys had certainly makes it worth it. Warning:  Family vacation photos below.

All those people make a lot of garbage
