My Dad...on his boat... on his Lake... He is the BEST dad ever!!!
This is the kid zone. This is where the kids sleep and play. It is the garage but mom and dad have made it so cozy. So far my girls stay inside with Breleigh in my room in the pack and play and Helaina in my mom's room on her cot. I just have to wonder how long Helaina is going to be happy with the arrangement. I kind of predict that next year I might start hearing about it!
This is my oldest brother Mike. Doesn't he look strong and smart!?! He was wonderful with Helaina the whole time and made sure she was always included in everything!
Grayson is looking more and more like the "Lake Boy" that he is destined to become. He moves from boat to float to dock like a pro! I am so impressed. The boat never goes fast enough for him!
Mmmmmmmmm..... these are looking good to me! The Pine River bakery does a fine job! Thanks to Uncle Goggy for bringing these back for us
Breleigh couldn't stay out of trouble! She got into the kleenex box and arranged them all over the floor!
We had such fun playing "Guess Who" Who knew it could be so competitive!
Breleigh and my dad hanging out!
Breleigh and my mom hanging out!
This is a very nice picture of a very good looking strawberry but it wasn't actually the berry that caught my eye. The fingers holding this berry are the hands of the best MOM in the world. These hands have comforted me and cared for me my entire life. Even though I am 35 these hands are still doing that. These hands were responsible for all the meals we enjoyed at the lake, these hands made sure that we had clean towels and clean dishes the entire time. My mom is awesome. In movies the "Grandmas" are always the ones who are invited to dinner and are usually the guests. This is not the case with my mom. She is the hostess, she makes it all happen. My dad is also great in this department. I believe they both sacrifice their desires for the rest of us. I have no idea how re pay them for this kindness.... so to the rest of the world I will say.... MY PARENTS ARE THE BEST!!!
I really talked up Taco Thursday at the Harriet Club (an extreme dive of a bar near my parents cabin) with the girls. I don't think I did it justice. They were very good sports but it turns out the old stinky smell of a old smoke and booze was not very appealing to their noses! hehehehehe So... of course I had to get their picture under the sign!
My brother in law will probably want to kill me for this picture but it really did make me laugh out loud!
Isn't he cute... Grayson has so many wonderful faces!
I want S'More!
Breleigh on the boat!
We were the American Pirates for our Fourth of July theme for the boat parade. Everyone out did themselves!
My brother Mike and my sister in law Carrie!
"RRRRRRRRRRRR" we be Pirates!
My brother was our captain for the fourth of July parade. He was such a good sport with the theme. He yelled at all the people on their docks about walking the plank. He made my day. I made my sister and I some pirate like shirts and my sister in law had an awesome shirt to wear as a pirate. Why there is no picture I don't know. Probably because at this point in the vacation she was the one who was usually behind the camera!
Even my mom got into the act!
Helaina's first fish this year! Do you like her pants? I made them!!! Yeah for me!
The perfect night on the dock. If you can't control your toddler... put her on your back and she won't fall off unless you do! Once again... love my Ergo carrier. I think everyone should have one!
Helaina and her sparklers. I hate them. I am so stinking afraid that someone is going to get burned! But, alas, I think every mother fears that so I just had to bite the bullet and let her know how fun they were! She actually did great!
What a good girl! Breleigh was very good with everyone. She didn't show her extreme "mommy only" attitude half as much as I thought she would!
Helaina the lake girl. Maybe next year she will be brave enough to put her face in the water!
