Break Wall

We went out to the break wall for a little jump in the lake. I wasn't sure about letting Caleb do it, but he was fearless (okay, it took a little coaxing, but he was so glad he did it). It is about 20 feet up? To be honest, I am not sure how high it was, but it was higher than a diving board.

yes, Josh and uncle Rick were down there to help him, which was good because the cold water was a bit of a shock. He jumped in one more time and then was done due to how cold the water was.

Kristi got in on the action..

Chloe begged to at least touch the water, so Josh helped her climb down and touch the water...here they are climbing back up.

Lots of fun......

Camping at the lake

So.....we went out to the Lake Huron campground for three nights and took the RV. The kids had SO much fun. I found a cool place to take pictures, so enjoy the beauty of my kids :)

This was the best I could get from Keira who had a fever for the last two days and was feeling kindof yucky...she was a trooper though, I am pretty sure that it was from her two year old molers that she is getting.

Oh yeah, and this one...pretty precious group, isn't it?

Conveniently, it was Christmas in July, so on Saturday morning, we went and decorated a plate and cookies for Santa. Caleb LOVED it and colored all three sheets

The pictures were placed in the bottom of a plastic plate....pretty cute

Grandma made one for Parker, ya know since he is only 2 weeks old and he can't color yet.

Grandpa and Grandma came to help decorate cookies.

Santa came to visit at 6 and the kids got to sit on his lap.

Then Santa gave all the kids a gift....

Keira wouldn't sit on Santa's lap, but she was sure excited when he called her name for a gift.

After seeing Santa, we went and had ice cream....

On Sunday morning, we went to play putt putt and the kids really liked it. Keira just liked to play with the balls and Chloe ended up rolling the ball instead of hitting it with the putter....she had fun and that is all that matters, right?

Caleb was getting pretty good by the time we were almost done.

It was a great weekend, the kids had fun and we had a great time with the family. We had way too much to eat, but it was all worth it :)

Family Day

We went to Port Huron today as a family to run some errands. We ran our errands, then went to Tim Horton's for lunch and a donut....(very yummy). Then we took the kids down to the park by the bridge. That is, the bridge to Canada....they weren't as excited as we were, but it was pretty nonetheless.

Caleb, Josh, and Chloe hold the rock up...

There was a boat that I thought we could go in, but it ended up you had to pay a steep price to get in the small boat, not worth it, so we just took a picture.

Me and my kids.....nice view eh???

We got to see a really long boat (Caleb said -there were two boats in one)

Dad and his kids

Swinging at the park

Love these guys!!!!

Proof they had fun!

Out of the mouth of a lion....

This drinking fountain has been around since I was a little girl and I always (as a little girl) was a little hesitant to drink out of it, but my kids had no fear......not sure how clean the water was, but I had to let them take a drink anyway.....

All of the equipment here is way old fashioned, but they loved it and didn't think any different.

Memories.....ahhh so sweet.
