WI Part 13-

Playing dress up!

Joelle really enjoyed the inflatable water slide.  Hmmm, maybe we could use something like this at Grandma Ginny's house!?

 

 

 

Yeah, Joelle may be holding her nose, but she was jumping off the pontoon!!  I was so proud of her when she jumped off, especially because no one even had to coax her into it:)

 

Joelle's 4 year old Pictures

I can not believe how grown up she looks!  The best part of taking her pictures is in the summer is that I get to use my mother's gorgeous yard for the background.  The pictures always turn out really good!!

 

 

 

 

WI Part 12- More Time on the Lake

I wonder how many years the kids still have that they will all fit on the golf cart at the same time!

Tye and Dexter like being able to help push off the pontoon!

This year right before we got to Wisconsin, the steering cable on the pontoon broke.  Grandpa Bob figured out a way to connect an arm to the motor so we could steer....the only problem was that the speed and gears was still next to the wheel.  Problem solved!  Nothing like lettting 6-7-8 year olds shift for you:)

 

 

 

Grandpa Bob told the kids he would give them 5 M&Ms everytime they jumped in the water.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I must say, we have some of the cutest kids around!!

WI 2012 Part 11- Finished Projects

The birdhouses are dry and the tie dyes are done. 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids all did a GREAT job on their houses.  They will look terrific decorating
Grandma Ginny's yard and breeze way. 

This year we let the tie dyes sit for 4 days and wow, what a difference it made.  The colors are much more vibrant and we thought the kids looked just terrific!
