This weekend we got together with family to celebrate the August birthdays! (Kristen and me!) My dad had the idea of getting together at Clear Lake Park. It was a FANTASTIC day! We started out letting the kids play. Derrill brought the frisbee, boomerang and football so we had tons of fun running and playing. After Eli and Hannah Joy (and their chauffers, aka - Thomas and Kristen) arrived, we headed over to the splash pad. We eventually pulled the kids away for some lunch but they didn't go without a fight! (my kids anyways, the cousins were easier to convince!) We had a relaxed picnic lunch and then Pops pulled up the boat for us to enjoy the afternoon on the lake.
Pops had purchased a four-person tube to pull behind the boat and we all took turns! This was a first for Jonathan, Caleb and I! (Aaron is still a little small to join, not that he didn't ask!) We had a blast! I know...lots of exclamation marks in this paragraph...but it all really was lots of fun : ) It was a great way to celebrate birthday and wrap up summer!
