Visit to Papa Mike & Grandma Elaine (10.2011)

We loaded up our bags, the car and set out to visit Papa Mike and Grandma Elaine in Wisconsin. Our time there was filled with lots of fun! A visit to Papa's work, the Madison Zoo, Pumpkin Patch and an Apple Orchard. The girls learned how to carve a pumpkin with electric tools...then got to enjoy a nice fire down by the lake.

Thanks Papa Mike and Grandma Elaine for a fun-filled weekend! Love you!

Daddy Daycare (10.9.2011)

This past Friday night we decided to watch a Netflix movie with the girls.
Mom and Dad not wanting to watch another cartoon, picked the movie Daddy
Daycare. The girls loved it and decided the weekend at home was actually
"Daddy Daycare." Daddy Daycare consisted of Daddy having fun with the
girls by playing games, dancing to music, going outside, walking through the
woods and of course play time at the park. Daddy Daycare did not consist
of Daddy making breakfast, lunch or dinner...nor did it consist of Daddy
picking up after the girls. Daddy Daycare employed Mommy to do these
services...unpaid by the way.

Monday morning when Daddy arrived at the "real" daycare, Kendall looked up
at Daddy with a sad look and said "is Daddy Daycare all done?"

Daddy said it was very cute as though she truly enjoyed the weekend at
home.

Monday night at dinner, Daddy asked the girls "So, did you like Michelle's
(real daycare) or Daddy Daycare better?" Both without hesitation
said..."Michelle's."

I guess Daddy Daycare was fun for a short period. Daddy, might as well get
use to it. This is one of many times they will say they preferred
something other than Daddy or Mommy!

Summer in October????

October 5th and the girls are swimming in Lake Marion...while the leaves were changing colors and dropping to the ground?!?! The night started with Daddy working late and Mommy NOT wanting to make dinner. So a quick run through the McDonald's drive thru, then off to the park for a picnic. The girls quickly ate their nuggets then scampered off to play. Then it was determined that they needed to see the lake...where boats, jet skiers and swimmers were enjoying summer in October.

Seeing the lake became feet in the lake, which then became knees in the lake, which then...yup, might as well go swimming...in our shorts and t-shirts. How often can you say, we went swimming on October 5th!!!

This weather is crazy, not that I am complaining!!! Our air has been on a few times...again it's October! But the part we like the most, is having our windows open each day and night!!!

Mother Nature must have realized how unfair she was to us this spring...thank you!

Fun on the beach

Cold and not happy that it's time to leave

Weekend at Grandma's (10.1 - 10.2.2011)

While Mommy and Daddy closed up the camper for the season, Grandma Karen watched the girls for the weekend. It was a fun filled weekend with many visits, play time with cousins and hanging with Auntie Missy and Auntie Tricia. By the time we picked them up on Sunday, they were tired and a bit on the crabby side...but all for the right reasons!

Thanks Grandma Karen, Auntie Missy and Auntie Tricia for such a FUN weekend!!!

High in the Sky (9.25.2011)

A story told by Daddy:

When I took the girls to the park yesterday, there was another girl pushing Kendall on the swing. Kendall asked her to push high in the sky. Somehow they were talking about God being high in the sky.

Kendall then said: “God lives high in the sky, right next to SantaClause!!”

The other mom and I looked at each other and just started laughing.

Halloween at the Camper (9.17.11)

The witches were out and about as the campground brought in the fall celebration of Halloween. To bad these witches were to dang cute to be scary! With a load, and I mean a load of candy, a ride on the hayride and a costume contest to boot...they sure did have fun!

The Last Days of Summer (9.11.11)

What an absolutely beautiful weekend!!!! 80's, sun, blue sky...who wouldn't want to take FULL advantage of this!!! We spent as much time on the lake, enjoying the water and the sun. This may be it...as in two days the temps are to drop into the 50's and 60's.


Thank you Mother Nature for one last gorgeous weekend!!!!

Our New Toy (9.2.2011)

In order for us to enjoy this even more (map of the Horseshoe Chain of Lake...where our seasonal is)...

We decided to get this:

We cannot wait to test out our new toy more next summer. We spend many HOT afternoons out on the lakes...cooling down. We are looking forward to a summer on the lake next year!
