It Was a Hot Saturday

This weekend it was unusually hot
at the lake.  The water was even hot.
So the kids and papa did a little snorkeling.

Didn't find much but had fun.

Papa and Austin moved to another spot to try
their luck at fishing.

The master and the want a be master...

Right around this corner they found a spot where
they pulled in one after another.  Austin was
so excited.  They were small but none the less
he had so much fun.

What Do You Do On a Hot Day?

You cool off in the pool.

Just the right size for a little explorer.

It's hard when you are having fun to pose for
pictures.

Kelly & Harper Visit From Bejing, China


Harper and Kelly are visiting today from Bejing, China.
Papa Q, Grandma Margie, Uncle Tom and Aunt Tootsie
are here to share some family time with them.
Aaron, Danielle and the boys join us later in the
day for dinner.

Looks like some good dinner conversation.

Harper is a good eater. 

She is up for trying anything.

The boys were taking it all in.

Papa is keeping the littles entertained.
We enjoyed the visit and hope to see everyone soon!

Gone Fishin'

The guys are getting ready for their first
night fishing venture in papa's new boat...

One excited little boy!
They didn't end up catching anything but
bugs, bugs and more bugs.  Guess night fishing
is not for this lake.

While the guys fished the girls were
making crafts.

Kayla worked to decopage a letter "K".

Aaron and the Boys First Visit to Pomme de Terre

Beckett is watching his little brother
while getting settled in.
Then Weston tried to be in control.
Not happening!
Tucker is having a snack with dada.
Tucker with his papa getting
a drink.
Jackson, Austin and Weston trying their luck on
Adam's boat.
Just chillin!
Kayla and Beckett try out the swing set
at Kayla's cabin.
Austin had mentioned he had not spent time
with Beckett in awhile (Beckett had a fever earlier
in the day and wasn't too much into swimming) so
he is playing catch with him.
Never to be left out, Tucker takes
a spin on the bike.
Adam had this old air conditioner that he is getting rid of and
Jack asked if he could destroy it.  They took the face part off
and took turns throwing a rock at it.  He really got a kick
out of it.
Backyard meal with the cousins.

It's all good...

Austin and Beckett
Michelle trying to catch a free minute...

How many kids will fit on a swing?

Only 4 here...

No wait there are 5...

4 on the swing and 2 want a be's.

Kayla using her mom skills.

There were a few fireworks before we headed out.
All in all a good day for all!
Hope you come back again!

Lake Time

Kayla and Austin checking out the water.

This is July 2, 2016.
This was June 20, 2015.
Look how the kiddos have grown.

Shrimp feast at Adam and Michelle's cabin.

Eagerly awaiting the feast.

Michelle said she wanted to save this picture so when
Austin says he never got anything to eat she can bring
this out and remind him of the good times!
After the feast there was fireworks to be enjoyed.
Kayla, papa and Austin have a front row seat!

Sharing Time With Tucker

We went for a walk and ended up at the gazebo
at the subdivision entrance.  This was one of the
kids favorite spots and wanted to share with Tucker.
They both think Tucker is pretty cool!
Little momma Kayla is helping Tucker
in the water table.
A drink of water is always welcome
on a hot day...
Cousin time is learning time.
