Summer Bacation

First thing Monday morning I can hear it from the side of my bed. "Lets go on BACATION"!! Its Hayden eagerly waiting for everyone to get up so we can go on vacation. Well, that's what the kids are calling it. As parents WE all know when you travel with the kids its a TRIP, not a vacation. This year our summer trip was to a cabin on the far side of the lake. Far enough away from home that we didn't go home once but close enough that we had many family and friends join us throughout the week. I think it is safe to say EVERYONE had a great time!!!

We did have some major highlights from this trip including Bryden finally catching that first fish, Hayden mastering both jet sking and tubing and Makena swimming like a fish from morning till night. I may or may not have feel in love with the huckleberry ice cream across the bay.
For Hayden being on "bacation" was hard work. He needed a little cat nap.

Bryden wanted nothing to do with jet skis or tubes. He was looking for peace and serenity. I think maybe we all found a little of that.
UMMM!! Smores time was the best part of the evening!!



Daddy even got a little of the fishing action.

Had a great time and I am sure the kids were very sad to have to come home. I however had eight layers of sunblock on my body and was craving my own bed. Great memories were made and now I must hit all that laundry!!!
