It’s Tuesday, so we decided to take the day and head up to the lake for some fun in the sun on the lake. We left by 6:45am to have time to grab breakfast and make the drive up to Lake Pleasant. We rented a pontoon boat from Scorpion Bay Marina (sounds very Arizona) and…
[vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] Back in 2015, we purchased a bunch of PVC piping and tubing with some pumps and bins. We gave them to the kids as a great way for them to play in the water. We let them drill holes and build and fill the buckets with hoses. They spent hours playing with the…
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This year our family took a trip to Young State Park to go camping. On our way up, we stopped at a White Cloud for lunch. The kids didn’t have their swim suits on, but that didn’t stop them from jumping in the water regardless. Once we got there, the kids ran to the beach…

Our whirlwind of a summer has finally come to a close. This past week+ was an amazing one. Despite Hayden’s pneumonia+strep+ear infection, our water trip was still on. We celebrated Mike’s birthday a little early so we could give him his brand-new-fancy-underwater-heavy-duty camera and diving watch. We were ready for the trip, and Hayden only…
This past weekend I took the kids fishing while Libby was working. We went to Lakeview Park on Austin Lake. Prior to going, the kids spent a fair amount of time at the compost pile digging for earth worms. After having collected at least a couple of dozen we went off in search of fish….
We had such a great time up in Traverse City for our third time at Great Wolf Lodge. Thanks to all who came with to spend time with us and the kids as we splashed the days away. I’m still recovering from climbing all of those stairs, but it’s totally worth it. Since we took…
