Summer Updates

The boys and I took a day trip to Kelly's Island.  Put put was a big hit.  We played two rounds.

After put put and lunch we went to the beach next to the camp ground.  The boys had a blast for about an hour then got bored and wanted to move on.

We drove around the island making a few stops here and there.  I wanted to go for a hike.  The boys didn't want to hike far.  I found a small park on the map that just had one trail leading to the lake.  We decided to check it out.  The trail was beautiful.  After about a ten minute hike, it led to this beach.  We were the only ones there.  The boys loved it.

We ended the trip with dinner at this restaurant.  Can't wait to go back.

  

My uncle bill turned 70.  Aunt Caroline threw a party at the Irish Club in North Ridgeville for him.  Happy Birthday Uncle Bill.

Aunt Natalie volunteered to take Colin, Reagan and Brooke to DC for a week.

We met at Ohiopyle State Park in PA.  While we were there we did some hiking.  This was taken along the Youghagheny River.

The girls enjoyed stealing my phone to take selfies.  Much better than what the boys do when they steal my phone.

Natalie and the kids all said they had a blast.  They went to museums, rode horses, went hiking and swimming and all kinds of other things.  

While Colin was in DC, we took a trip to Cedar Point.

The "All Wheels Extreme" show was amazing.

As were the funnel fries.

Justin always enjoys driving the cars.

Justin and I both tried to make it up this rope ladder.

Neither of us made it.

Justin didn't want to sleep alone in his room, so this is where he slept.  He loved it.

Justin had his summer camp lip sync concert.  It was a lot of fun.  The kids did great.

That's it for now.  See you soon.
