Thanks to Jon and Tina we have some fun pictures from the pool the other
night. Thanks again Val!
The kids wanted to come back a day early from the lake because they missed
their buds. So, yesterday afternoon we setup the slip-n-slide and soon after
a water fight broke out.

We fired up the grill in this very hot day with friends and the kids had a
blast in the water.

We spent the entire last week at the cabin. We had everyone up from our family with exception of Katie. As usual the kids had a blast together and the adults had their own fun. We played in the water, boated, visited “Florida Point”, spent a lot of time at the Tiki Bar and Sand Bar, watched fireworks, attended a parade, played mini golf, went through a huge maze, and hung out with friends.
The weather could not have been better, there were only a couple of small instances of rain that occurred mostly during sleeping hours and the water was very refreshing.
**Disclaimer – I have a little tradition with the kids, they like when I shave my beard, I only do this when we have a long vacation. Don’t be scared 🙂

The last couple of weekends we went camping with Carolyn’s family and the next we spent at the cabin. We really lucked out on weather both times considering there was rain back at home 🙂

The kids really enjoyed time with their cousins
The next weekend we were off to the cabin and enjoyed some really nice weather (compared to many weekends so far this summer). Nix and Jen joined us for the weekend. Nix, Big Joe, and I went on an adventure to the other lake breaking through beaver dams and bogs to get to the other side.

The kids fished, played with friends, and swam in the lake. Nix and I jumped off the dock with Elizabeth (video in photoset and below).

This morning while eating donuts he lost his first tooth. He is very proud
and excited 🙂

After working around the house all morning I enjoyed a little hammock time
with the kids in the sun.

Break out the slip-n-slide! I even went down a few times which Joey thought was pretty funny.
The grass has taken a beating this week, the kids have had the slip-n-slide out everyday this week 🙂
We had a great weekend at the cabin this weekend. We partied with neighbors, saved a old turtle from getting run over, played in a human hamster ball, played Dave’s new shuffleboard, and played bingo at the legion.
