Summer Fun

Wow, it's closely approaching the end of July, where did the summer go? This past week we had Jason's family's cabin reserved we'd like for it to become one of our "traditions". Weather was absolutely gorgeous almost every day, and the one day that it wasn't left way for some needed maintenance, cleaning, and organizing. Family and friends came and went throughout the week, so our time went fast.

It was a noteable week: I turned 31, Laura turned 3, and Ainslee officially became a walker! That coupled with 3 kids who all came down w/ a 2-3 day viral "thing" marked w/ high temp and sores in the mouth, and I, myself ended up w/ a UTI, so while the urgent care wasn't where I wanted to ring in my birthday-life happens. Regardless of the sickness, we rode the waves and all enjoyed ourselves. Laura went go-carting, miniature golfing, out for supper, and then ice cream w/ Jason, me, my nieces, and their friend Amanda-she was all by herself, and I don't think we could have given her a better birthday present then our full attention.

Alex tubed behind Grandpa Russ' fishing boat for the first time, and also jumped off the pier and officially swam for the first time. We wrapped the weekend up w/a little fishing and a pontoon ride w/ Jason parents. All good things come to an end, and I think we were all ready to get back to a sense of normalcy. So it was only fitting that it was raining when we all woke up on Sunday which gave us some incentive to head home. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful cabin, or second home to utilize throughout the year. Our kids thoroughly enjoy it, and the photos captured create beautiful memories.
