Happy Birthday Gramps!!!

Saturday was my Grandpa's birthday and we had a fun party at Aunt Linda's house!!

Happy Birthday Gramps!!!!

Here are some of the pics from the party.

Brenden with his feet in the pool.

TJ with his feet in the pool.

Alyssa with her feet in the pool...okay, so I didn't let them go swimming because Justin was home sick and I wanted to get back to check on him. None of the other cousins swam anyway, so it turned out okay.

This is a surprise pic I found on my camera the next day...haha. Since he took it I thought I'd let the world see it! This is my cute brother Logan, not looking so cute at the moment, but hahahaha gotcha back! I'll show you not to steal my camera!! Love ya Logan!

Cabin Fun

Last weekend we went to my parents' cabin with everyone and had a really fun time!

The kids loved wandering around on the newly planted grass, which is a great addition!

They had a good time swinging, of course!

These are my two cute nieces.

Alyssa and Maycie are inseparable when they are together. It's really cute! They have a lot of fun.

And then, of course, TJ finally got to shoot the bbguns again. He has been asking all summer when he could do it again. He also, with Justin, caught 3 fish on the river. Wow! He was in heaven! This time, though, everyone took a turn shooting. Even Alyssa got into it!!

Thanks Mom and Dad for a fun weekend at the cabin!!!!

Last Camping Trip of the Year

Last weekend we went on our final camping trip of the year...so sad! I hate that fall is coming. I wish summer would last for a lot longer. Oh well, we had a great time!! It was so much fun! And we actually made it through a camping trip with NO rain!!! =)

On Sat. Justin's family came up and we went tubing and rafting down the river. It was really cold and I have a big purple bruise on my butt from hitting rocks on the way down, but it was a lot of fun. The kids loved every second of it and kept asking to do it again.

TJ even said he couldn't decide between Fishing and Tubing.....what??? There is something that rivals fishing?? That is quite amazing. That kids loves fishing, so he must have enjoyed himself!

Saturday was Justin's birthday (Happy Birthday Sweetie!!!!) so we took up a yummy Costco chocolate cake and gained lots of weight just looking at it.

Daddy and his girls =)

We took up the kids' bikes and they had so much fun riding around. Brenden practically lived on his. He'd only get off for tubing, eating, and playing in the river.

Happy Campers =)

They were just floating in a pooled area. It was so cute--they took turns pulling each other around.

We had a great time and were sad to leave. We stayed longer than we thought we would on Sunday, but we had the whole loop to ourselves. It was so quiet and peaceful. We'll for sure be back next year!!!
