Happy July!

So on a lighter note from the last post earlier today, we had an awesome 4th of July week! We did our annual trip to Cali, staying at Mike's parents for a few days then off to my family's cabin at Bucks Lake(the best place on earth as far as I am concerned!). The kids had a blast this year, and we just enjoyed playing and relaxing. We feel lucky to be able to go, since the fires have been so bad there this year. The smoke was pretty thick, but got better each day we were there. Jake had three things he wanted to accomplish this year at the cabin. They were build a fire, build a fort and go fishing in the boat. He was able to do all three and had a great time doing those things with Daddy and Grampa.

Jake LOVES the boat!
Kenzie loved the beach. She even pretended to rub sunscreen on her legs. She is such a girl.
Jake was the first one in the water!

Jake reluctantly telling Kenzie it is ok if she comes in his fort, after many tears.
Sis LOVED the quads
Jake wasn't so sure, but only would ride with Grampa
Besides my son looking well, a little out of it, he had a great time fishing
I love these pictures of Sis! She is too sweet

We had a great time! It is so nice to get away as a family. My mom took some really good pics of the kids, so when I get those from her I will post again.
