Fourth of July FUN!!!

Pool Wars

Mom thought the kids needed additional entertainment while they were up north.  I didn't think it was necessary, but as you can see the kids and "big" kids had a blast in the water!  If only, the horse and deer flies would have stayed away!

As you can see, no one made it out dry (even if you were fully clothed).  Not only were their squirt guns and buckets of water flying, but we also filled up many water balloons!

The three BIG cousins
I asked Lucy when I saw her if I was going to get to do her hair over the weekend, it's one of my favorite things! 

Cameron adores Thomas and loves to "play" with him!

The Fabulous Four

Best Buddies

It was another lovely Fourth of July at home in Bemidji.  We enjoyed water fights, fishing, boat rides, swimming, fireworks, carnival rides, delicious food, good company, tasty drinks, snuggle time, and so much more!  My parents always do whatever is needed to ensure that we are well entertained and it
couldn't be more appreciated!!!

BL Kiddos

We enjoyed our second annual park get together today. It's so fun to see all my past and current co-workers and their beautiful kids! They all had such a great time running in the water and playing in the parks, and we couldn't have asked for a better day. We are looking very forward to adding Baby King into the picture next year! Fun, fun, fun in the summer sun!!

A Day at Bischoff's Cabin

Ann and all the kiddos (L toR) Miranda, Bryn, Kyle, Cooper, and Cameron

Ann and Kyle...Miranda was the only kiddo who was willing to take the fish off the hooks (Girls Rule, Boys Drool)!

All the kiddos heading out for a ride

Kyle, Cameron, and Miranda are exactly two months apart in age, and it was fun to see them play together. I wish I had a picture of them jumping off the paddle boat and then trying to pull each other back into the boat! :) What a great way to spend a sunny day!

Boys, Boys, Boys!

The boys had their good buds, Riley and Nolan, over for the day last week. They played, played, and played some more! Needless to say they were all worn out by the end and very dirty...which of course means they had tons of fun!

Just Dance...the pictures say it all!

It was chilly, but after LOTS of coaxing and having Evan to watch Cam jumped in!

A game of Beanbags

Coop did really well kayaking and he DID wear a lifejacket!

The boys spent the entire day in the water playing with their cousins. It is always great to see them all together and fun for us to have them entertained, so that we can chat with the adults!

Go Twins!

 

Our second game with the boys and our way to celebrate Father's Day with Bryant! The Twins won, which made it even better!

Happy Father's Day!
