Sunday and Monday...

Sunday wasn't a great weather day, so we spent some of our morning doing crafts with the kids.  Keeping all 4 kids entertained and happy proved to be one of the most important parts of vacation!!!  We made visors and they all enjoyed wearing them around the cabin with their craft aprons that Mama had brought for them.  The kids even fit in some movie time complete with their own special chairs and popcorn.





We made it outside later in the afternoon in time for Nick and his sister to have a nice bike ride together!!!  Bubbles and flying kites made our day complete!





On Monday we were able to do one of our favorite activities on vacation... power wheels and go-karts!  Ben and Conner were both able to ride the "big" 4 wheeler this year.  They were also able to sit in the go-karts with Daddy and Papa while they raced around the track.  I was very nervous, but except for a few seconds where Conner got scared and Nick had to slow down, they both did very well!  As usual they showed me that they can handle something new much better than Mommy can!





Nick had his best fishing day on Monday!



We also put the beach to good use!  Conner decided he was a little scared of the water on Monday, but he eventually warmed up to it again.  Ben (being the fearless wonder that he is) jumped right back in!
