Our trip North in a Nutshell

Everyday was packed with some kind of activity. We roasted Smores, visited with friends, and family, went to the beach walked the boardwalk, had ice cream had our family pictures taken, Thanks Cass your amazing!! And had a big 4th of July Bash.
Two of my brothers came to town during our time there. The kids had lots of people to entertain them. It doesn't seem that I did very well with taking pictures. but I'm sure the others will share their pictures. WON'T YOU.


When we got there we took the kids to a park that has a place for kids to enjoy the water. It has several fountains, that the kids can run through.


Jay mowed the lawn with daddy and soon after starting was sound asleep.
Everyday Papa had the 4 wheller out and hauled kids around the field. Jay also enjoyed it.

We spent some time at the lake. It was Chilly!! but the kids didn't mind it. (Silly Papa)


Check out that Hair. It's the wind look out on the boat


We tookk the girls to drive the go carts. We thought for sure mady would be tall enough to drive but she was a few inches short. Hopefully next year.


Nana got out the kiddie pool and girls never wanted to get out. Nana finished Mady's swim suit while we were there. Mady has waited almost a year to wear it. Thank you NANA Mady loves it.
The girls picked strawberries one morning in their Pajamas. Mady and I found a snake. It scared us!!! Then we realized it wasn't real. Thank goodness


At the parade. You can't see the girls shorts but I made them. It was hot the entire time we were there and nobody got sunburned. YEAH!! That night we watched the fireworks from the boat. The kids and the adults enjoyed it.

We were loaded and ready to go. Poor Duncan didn't want us to leave, or he wanted to go with us. We miss you too buddy.
We also took the girls (my brother and sister in law) to Silverwood which is an amusement /water park. Brooklyn rode her first roller coaster. She didn't like it, we'll try again next year. Mady on the other hand rode several and LOVED every minute of it.
Jappy and I went to my class reunion. There were lots of people that didn't come that I would have loved to see. I still got to catch up with several, that I hadn't seen in awhile. Why is it that you are so close to someone in high school, and then you graduate and you never see them again? They did convince me to get on facebook, so I'll be getting that set up this week, thanks to their peer pressure.:) We had a fun trip and never seems like it's long enough to do everything we want. Thanks everyone for watching our kids, and spending time with us we had a BLAST!!
