We spent another fun family vacation at Taylor's parents' cabin in Island Park. Sometimes we talk about going somewhere else, but 1) we are afraid of staying at hotels with our kids, and 2) we just really love the cabin. It is one of Taylor's favorite places on earth and that is obvious when we are there. We all love it, though. It has become a special place to our kids too. So here is some of the fun we had. . .
For the first few days we were there with just our family and it was so good to have Taylor all to ourselves. We put together this Aladin puzzle we found that had 200 pieces. (Charlie tried his hardest to thwart our efforts.)
We ate Captain Crunch because Taylor shopped for us and because we were on vacation.
We played baseball.
We threw rocks in the lake. Buckets of them.
And when Grandma and Grandpa came up we played in the water. I love how much my kids like to ride in the boat. I am a paranoid mother, and am constantly worried about the water while we are at the lake (although of course I have lots of help with the kids), but this year we seemed a little more under control--especially Anna and Max. They are pros at the boat and the jet skies now.
It's a good thing Grandma Sonja sent me some of their pictures because I for some reason didn't get any of Grandma and Grandpa, and here's at least a couple of Grandpa. We really love being with them and Uncle Casey and had so much fun together!!!
