VBS

I guess summer isn't complete without spending a week @ Vacation Bible School. My sister & I used to go every year in Florida when we were at my dad's house, we both have many memories there. Anyway Cooper has spent this past week at VBS. He says, "I like it. I like the coloring." - It came in very handy as Cameron has been on the couch since last Thursday night with pneumonia. Poor guy has been so sick. We have made 3 trips to the doctor and finally yesterday he was put on new medications and seeming better today. It has been a rough 7days and we are all ready for him to feel better. So VBS saved Cooper this week, there are only so many movies you can sit through and so many obstacle courses you can design with couch cushions before you start to go stir crazy. Cooper decided he will go back next summer with Cameron, so at least it got him to try something new. :-)

Lake Fun

We went to lake for a couple of days. Jeez it had been since last year 4th of July we had used our boat. It felt so good to get back on the water. We had great weather & a flat lake. Made for some good boating and lots of fun.

Eddie going for the high dive from the wakeboard tower (or the gun racks as Billy's friend in MS thought lol)
love this of us :-)
Roxy...a boating natural
Getting their tube on. Cameron & Roxy cracking up!
Now we just need to get her on some skis
Surfing on the tube
Cooper skiing. He's great at it and ready to wakeboard
Cameron wakeboarding for the first time behind the boat. Until now he'd only gone off the boom on the side of the boat. He got right up and went for quite a while. Go Cameron!

Happy Birthday Eddie

Eddie's b/d was 6/7 - OK, so I'm a little late with this one. It was a low key day but we did get to go out to dinner to one of our favorite places. The kids spoiled him with some great gifts and funny birthday cards.

A birthday kiss...muah!
Some birthday love for dad after he ate his ice cream.
So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDDIE

Farmer Boys

Cooper says "the two farmer boys playing with their chickens"

...these kids need to live on a farm.

Memorial Day Fun

Amazingly the sun came out long enough for the boys to enjoy some Memorial Day fun. It's like riding a bike, they jumped right in and swam all over the place.

WOW....he wasn't expecting to catch quite so much air. That slide was high.
Cameron loved it and went several times.
Where were we? Relaxing, having a Corona with our jackets on! It's great to be a kid!
