Super Sunday

One thing we can not complain about this summer
would be the weather!
It has positively been
a summer to remember:)
~~~~~
Sunday: Brian, Dad, Chris & Glen
headed out to play a round of golf.
Once they were finished
we met back at mom & dad's for
a little R & R poolside
along with some laughs
&
a great dinner!
It was so much fun having everyone together.
Thanks to "Bieber fever"
~lol~
the concert that Sheri & the girls were headed
to was postponed...
...so they were able to join in on the
fun afternoon.
~Hannah & Hollie~
Great picture ladies!!

1...2...3...
JUMP

Marco...

Thanks Glen for helping Hannah
into the pool...
along with the great diving tips :)








Where is Kailyn you ask?
Well, she decided to take a late afternoon nap.
Don't worry,
she woke up just in time
for more picture taking.

~~~~~
I can't believe that we are approaching
the end of the summer.
I'm not ready for it to end.
I have had so much fun
this summer
I'm just not ready to say
Good Bye:(



Here's to the
Summer of 2010!!

FUN WOW!!

Saturday was the perfect day to head to Fantasy Island....and that is just what we did.

~~~~~
We met up with Mike & Janine and Noah & Olivia
for an afternoon of fun!
~~~~~
Will you look at the faces of these thrill seekers!




We enjoyed a train ride that took
us all around
the park.
It was close to a
30 minute train ride when
all was said & done.

I think it has been about 25 years
since I was last at Fantasy Island.
It is smaller then Darien Lake,
however,
it is so
"young kid friendly"
There was so much to
see and do,
especially with Kailyn.
The grounds were beautiful
and there was a small lake
where you could rent
a canoe or kayak.
~~~~~~
The weather really cooperated.














Say cheese for the camera!!
I loved watching these faces & hearing their screams.

Kailyn and Olivia enjoying a plane ride.

A fun ride on the spinning hot air balloon.

Driving her race car

A boat ride

Sliding into fun...

...with daddy

And finishing the day off with a splash.
~~~~
Thank you Mike and Janine for
keeping Hannah when we had to head home.
She was so excited to go to the water park
with you guys.
I can't believe she went on the water slides!!
~~~~
This was definitely a Fun Wow day!

Vacation Highlights

Well, it's been 2 full days since we have returned home and I'm
still trying to decide what pictures to post.
I took over 100 pictures this past week.
How do I decide which ones to share with you?
~~~~~~
Here are some of the highlights.
Bonfires!! and Smores!!!

Smiles & Happy Faces :)

The cottage.
I don't think I ever took a picture from this angle.
There is so much land.
It almost looks like we are somewhere in the woods.
Making the best of a cloudy day.

Walking thru the tall grass & sand to get to & from the beach.

Choo Choo Trains!!!
I can't forget the choo choo trains.
Kailyn is definitely a lover of trains.
We were always a stone throw away from
the 3 active train tracks.
Here we are at the boat launch as one was
going by right behind us.
I LOVE this picture!
~Fun in the Sun~
not a care in the world
~Life is Good~
More Smiles...

...and this never ending view from the beach.
Look at all those fluffy clouds.
~~~~~
Thank You mom & dad for inviting us, once again,
to vacation the week with you.
It is so much fun to see the wide eyes and
smiles on the girls faces!
It was a relaxing week.
We made the best of the weather...
...and best of all we made lots of memories!
~~~~~
Unfortunately, the cottage has a no dogs policy:(
How do you go on a vacation with out the whole family??
Thank You Mom & Dad Keicher for giving
the pooches a vacation of their own!
Jazz & Rusty had fun spending the week with you.
~and~
We could rest at ease knowing that they were
being well taken care of!!

The Yearly Pic

For those of you who don't know,
it has become a tradition , every year,
to take a picture by the tree outside the cottage.
I have a picture from every year since Hannah was born.
2010
This one is my favorite!

Here Kailyn is celebrating her
3rd year of picture
taking by the tree.

It's hard for me to believe that this
is the 8th year for Hannah.

Where does the time go??

At the Beach

Kisses

A rock concert

I Love Us

Family Time

Swinging

Sliding

Riding

We will pretend the legs are straight
and the
toes are pointed...lol
The beach is fun...

...for everyone :)
