"The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experiences." - Eleanor Roosevelt

Tuesday and Wednesday...

We made Tuesday a "town" day because the weather was not good, so we got our family picture taken and headed into town for lunch and a movie!


On Wednesday, all of the boys went golfing!


















The kids got to play out in the yard while the grown ups were getting ready for our fish fry. The kids all got to bread some of the fish, which they love to do! The boys both ate the fish and chips and really liked it!





















A little dock fishing to wind down the evening!

Monday...

More fish this morning...



Nick tried to find some quiet time, but Ben and Conner had other plans...














The boys have been asking for days now about going to ride the go-karts, so today we headed into town for some driving fun!  As always, the boys loved driving the little cars, and had a great time riding with the grown ups in the big cars!  They also got to play some miniature golf, so they were loving that! It was so funny to watch them on a couple holes trying to figure out where their golf balls were going to end up after going through a tube or obstacle!

























We are ready for more fishing! Ben was trying to look fierce as he lowered the boat lift!



















I even got to drive the boat...


















Nick and the boys enjoyed some fishing with Papa tonight!

"Fun"day...

Sunday brought us more fishing and beach time, just the way we like it! It was fun to watch Conner and Ben just fishing off the dock!


















Ben was still trying to catch those fish...



Conner took some time to play in the sand...


















Ben caught one!!!!

















Conner loves the kayak!


















Some rain kept us inside tonight, so the kids all watched Zootopia on the computer! (Conner talked about this movie for the remainder of the week!)

Waterday...

Nick took Ben and Conner fishing early this morning... they were up anyway! It is amazing how well our boys do in that boat. They can't seem to sit still anywhere else! They were very excited about getting out there and catching some fish!






















It was another beautiful day, so we enjoyed the beach and the lake this afternoon! Ben and Conner loved sitting in the tubes this year. Conner even grabbed an oar and paddled around.



















Ben was obsessed with catching fish while we were swimming! He spent much of the afternoon trying to sneak up on the little fish and trying to catch some. The resort owner gave Ben some minnows to put in his bucket when he couldn't quite catch one!

















The boys went tubing again this year! They still went pretty slow, since we weren't sure they would be able to handle falling off just yet! Ben was first, then Conner, and then Nick.




















Time for some evening fishing... this is our happy place!
