Lake Time!

This past weekend, one of our friends invited us out to one of the local lakes to have a BBQ and a boat ride. Our little water bug just couldn't help himself and jumped right in. When the boat arrived, we decided to take Sam and the kiddos tubing and on a little boat ride. When it was our turn, Sam and I jumped on the tube and went for a ride. During the fun and un-announced to me, the little hand (that was holding on to the tube) went up in the air with his thumb sticking up. I looked down at the blonde haired dare devil and said, "would you like to go faster?" He looks up at me and says, "yes daddy, make this go faster". And so we did. Here are some photos of Sam playing in the water at the lake. Our friends hold the photos of Sam and I tubing behind the boat and when I get them I will share them with everyone.

Cousins come to visit

This past week we had family in town. Kindra and the boys were able to come and visit from Idaho. It was great getting to see the boys again and watch Sam interact with his cousins. The whole time they were here Sam kept calling them "brothers" and when the left he asked when his brothers were going to come back to play. While they were here we went to the water park, played video games, attempted miniature golf and visited the cheese factory. Click here to see a slide show of images.

Annual Pancake Breakfast

Over the past few years we have had the opportunity to participate in the annual Diary Breakfast at Lincoln High School. Our group has gotten smaller over the years, but the pancakes are still just as good! Sam had a great time and can eat his fair share of those buttery short stacks.
