Big Star Lake

Me and the girls spent a week at Big Star with my mom's extended family. The weather was perfect for swimming and sitting on the beach. The girls kept me busy for the week, they never sat down. You would think that they would crash at night - oh no they couldn't settled down most nights. Here are a few photo's of our week.

Corey stayed Saturday and Sunday so he had some play time in the water with the girls. Here is my brother Brandon throwing Kenzie into the raft.

Our cottage had this little slide and Ashley loved going up and down in the water and on land. The other girls loved putting it on the dock and sliding off of it there.

Kenzie's little "project" for the week was finding dead minnows on the shore. This picture was taken on the first day so just think what a collection we had after 6 days!! She kept them in a bucket and towards the end of the week it was starting to smell pretty good. She wanted to take them home and show Corey. I left without her thinking about her fish.

Someone caught this turtle while fishing. Brooke was brave enough to hold it - to my surprise.

They do love each other :)

You can never be to safe. She would swim out to the deep with all this stuff even the wagon went with her. Leave it to Kenzie to come up with this.

Brooke wanted to go tubing this year so if Brooke goes Kenzie needs to go too. They had so much fun when we were done they always wanted to go again. This was Kenzie's first time tubing and she did great. As you can see they were getting pretty brave towards the end of the week.

Ashley's 18 Month Picture's

I decided to take Ashley's 18 month picture's this time around. We went to a little park in Holland and I think they turned out pretty good. Now the hard part is to pick which one I like.

Swimming Lessons

Brooke and Kenzie took swimming lessons for the last five weeks two days a week. It was busy running them back a forth and they started at 5:00 and were done at 5:45 so those nights were suppers on the go. Brooke can swim the length of the pool two times with no flotations and she loves swimming under water. Kenzie was more excited about playing with the toys. The last day we were able to watch them so I got a few pictures.
