My parents came to stay at their Lake Condo during the week of July 4th. It was fun having them close like that (about an hour away), and we were able to go visit several times throughout the week.

The first day we went was Sunday, July 1. We took Lucy with us and just hung out for a little while. The following day, the kids and I went back so we could go for a ride on the rental pontoon! This was Addison and Fischer's first time on a pontoon boat. I think they weren't quite sure what to think at first....



But once they settled in, they loved it.




We even got to stop at a little "beach" and play. I didn't have the kids in their bathing suits because I thought we were just going to be cruising around the lake. Sometimes spontaneous things like this are the best!



They had a great time, then we had to head back to the condo so the kids and I could drive home.


Then, on July 4, we took Lucy to the condo again and we got to spend the night! It was like a little vacation and we all had a great time! We got to ride on the boat again for a little while both Wednesday and Thursday. We went prepared with bathing suits this time!



Scott and Grandpa even took the kids into the lake!




While we were there on the 4th, the kids got to do sparklers for the first time. Grandpa even helped out. :)




We also went on a little walk... you can see Lucy fits right in - all 3 took off because they don't really "walk" anywhere.. they are almost always running!




Finally, on Saturday, we went back one last time to see my brother and his family. They drove in from Ohio for a visit, so it was fun having everyone together. We, of course, got more boat time in this time too!

Addison loved borrowing Carly's colored pencils. They sat here for quite awhile and drew/colored together. So cute!


Fischer and Carter stuck together playing with any sort of technology they could get their hands on. They especially had fun playing on the iPad Uncle Chris brought.


By the end of the week, Addison and Fischer were boating professionals. :)

Thanks to Gma and Gpa Suttle for letting us crash their vacation so many times! :)
