More Summer

Before I go into our first day of first grade I wanted to post our best summer highlights. 

We never want to forget all the fun we had!

There is always a trip to visit Great-grandma and Great-grandpa.  

The children love seeing them and spending time out on the lake.

Two evil-Knievel's hittin' jumps!

The gang getting towed behind the boat.

Tillie and Great-grandpa

Aunt Burp and Sir Matthew enjoying a boat ride

We enjoyed our annual parade!

The boys running with their loot!

In August was our first experience with CAMP.  

We took the kids to family camp at a ymca camp in Wisconsin.

Everyone had such a good time.  The kids had opportunity to try things we would normally have no access to.  Matthew and dad square danced late into the evening!

and we...

Wesley tried "throwing clay".

horseback riding

Matthew zip lined through the trees!

And he reached the top of the climbing wall.

They made sock puppets and presented them in a show!

Thanks grandpa :)

Where we stayed.

We had a great time and met a lot of new friends.

Then, we went to my father in-laws cabin.
Always such a good time.  I will do a post on that tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for spending vacations and summer with our family.
