We just returned from our annual summer getaway to Horseshoe Lake. We feel so lucky that Chad's parents let us use their cottage every year for our vacation! This year my parents were able to come up for part of our first weekend. We love showing them where we spend so much of our summer and they enjoy spending some time with the boys. Most of the week was gorgeous...sunny and warm...so we did lots of swimming and boating, and caught more than our fair share of toads, turtles, and even a few fish. On the few overcast days, we ventured out on some field trips...one to a local orchard/petting zoo called Anderson Farms, and another to John Ball Zoo.
My little monkey will go to great lengths for a bite of watermelon!
Josh was thrilled with the chickens at Anderson Farms.
The boys and I taking a rest at Anderson Farms.
Back at Horseshoe Lake. Josh lived in a diaper and his lifejacket the whole week.
Will loved the water trampoline. He wouldn't jump off it, but he sat on it for hours!
Fishing with Grandpa H.
Will learned to put his lifejacket on all by himself...can you tell? He wasn't very happy with me for laughing at him and he really didn't want this documented on film, but I did it anyway.
That UFO behind Josh's head is a sprinkler water rocket that my dad bought for the boys. They were entertained with it for hours! It hooks up to hose and has a power switch so they can control how much water the rocket gets and therefore how high it shoots up. In the launching process everyone in a 20-foot radius gets soaked!
We always practice safe swimming!
Josh wasn't too thrilled with Will's extra precautions.
Back at Anderson Farms...Will would have been happy feeding this goat for the whole day if we'd let him!
