We spent A LOT of time on the lake playing in the water and had a ton of fun! Saturday evening they have a boat parade contest and we won 1st place!!!

40 YEARS
Kurt & Nancy...AKA: Dad & Mom...AKA: Grandpa & Grandma.... Celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary this past Sunday (July 17th)!
All of us kids/grand kids joined them for 10:00 mass and then headed over to Whiskey River for brunch.
Church was interesting.... dad took Macie out because she said she had to go potty. As soon as she came back she sat down on my lap and said mommy I have to puke?! We quick snuck out of side door (as we were in the FRONT pew) and just as we got to the bottom of the steps, sure enough, she puked! I'm not sure if it was heat or what because she was fine after and got none on her or mom (way to go Macie). Brunch was great food, but it was so hot!!! The air just couldn't keep up and man it was hot!!! The floor was wet and you had to take baby steps because they was so much humidity in there :(

Up to the lake....
This past weekend we make a quick trip up to my brother & sister-in-laws cabin in Hutchinson. We headed up after work/daycare on Friday with the camper, played for the day on Saturday & then headed home after supper Saturday night. The kids had a lot of fun, there were lots of other kids up for them to play with. Brayden & Macie both went on the tub, both kids LOVED it! Unfourtanally dad was very under the weather & spent most of the times trying to feel better :(

Kamp Dels
Last year we took my nephews Colton & Trayton to Kamp Dels with us, so this year is was my niece's turn. Kalley, Taylor & our family of 4 headed over to Kamp Dels July 8th, 9th & 10th. We had so much fun!
As soon as we got there Friday we put on our suits & headed to the water park... headed back for a little supper... rented a pony for a half hour (the kids took turns ridin)... off to one of the nice parks they have there... then the little ones headed off to bed & the big kids made s'mores.
Saturday the campground had fresh donuts so we all enjoyed one of those (Macie enjoyed the frosting)... then off to play at one of the parks... back to have an egg bake for brunchjust in time to all crashed for a quick nap... off to the water park again (man did we enjoy that, it was perfect weather)... we enjoyed the slides, tire swing & just being silly until supper... up to one of the other parks & a quick game of golf for us 3 girls... then it was off to the magic show that the campground put on while enjoying some soft serve ice cream as we watched the show... then off to the park again & then back for bed/s'mores.
Sunday we did a quick breakfast & were at the gate when the water park opened! We had great weather, no bugs & just an all around great weekend!!!

4th of July camping
This past weekend we went camping in Eagle Lake @ what we call "Camp Lyle & Louise". We had plans to go to a state park by Lake City, bring my parents jet ski's, my parents were coming along to watch the kids, great plans..... all wrecked because of the shut down! So onto Plan B! Miranda's aunt & uncle have a place in Eagle Lake that we camped at last year on Labor day, so we headed out there. It's a big open area with a fire pit, picnic tables & even mini golf :) It was nice to have somewhere to go, but the bugs were not so nice! Poor Brayden must be really sweet, because they really liked him (he looks like he has the chicken pox). Friday night we got a little bit of rain, but nothing much, the storms all went north of us. We hope everyone had a great 4th!
Take cover (Dad & Tony's version of storm coming "take cover")
Grandpa & Macie playing stickers & eating fruit snacks while we wait for the storm to pass
Playing bubbles - It's hard to see, but his poor little head is full of bites. He looks like he has the chicken pox
Goofy Girl...
Brayden watching the tractor - he is ALL boy
Macie helping Alice & "Mary" pick up branches
*Mary's name is actually Marian, but Macie calles her Mary :)
Macie playing mini golf
It's kind of hard to see, but Brayden was so tired he fell asleep while eating...
