It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

We had such a blast! It was lots of fun! We are home now, and as fun as our vacation was, it’s nice to be home.
Our vacation started with our trip to the Bismark/Mandan area. I haven’t been there before, and it was fun to see. We stayed in a hotel with a fun indoor water park. It was really cool, and we also got to eat at the Cracker Barrel. Hee, hee! I haven’t been to one of those since I left Georgia 6 years ago. *yum* I loved it-those cheesy hashbrowns they have are delicious!
The next day we left to go to Pierre, S.D. Jace’s parents and siblings (& their kids) were camping there at the state park. We didn’t camp, but stayed in a hotel for 2 nights there. We spent our days with the family, grilling out, having fun at the river, and catching up on each others’ lives. It was nice. *smile*
After 2 days there, we left for Sioux Falls. Another area of S.D that I haven’t seen. I liked it there. We stayed in another hotel with a HUGE water park/play area for kids and adults alike. It was fun! They had a huge water slide, a pirates ship play area with multiple slides for the kids, hot tubs, a bigger pool, a game pool & more. It was way cool! *smile*
We went around Sioux Falls, and went to this huge park called Falls Park. It was really pretty, with lots of rocks, falls, and lots to do. I’ll post pics on Flickr soon! *wink*
Oh yeah! I almost forgot! On our way to Sioux Falls, we stopped at the Corn Palace in Mitchell, S.D. A lot of people from the area say it’s corny (ha ha), but it still is something to see.

I thought it was pretty neat. I took more pics there and will post them as well on Flickr!
We had a fun little vacation touring ND and SD. It was quite the nice getaway!!
