camping...

Ryan and the boys before they left for their rustic camping adventure!  The girls and I met up with them in Traverse City along with the rest of my family.

Ryan fearing drowning while doing the dishes? 

lots of fun times hanging out with aunts, uncles, and cousins...

and of course grama, she is the best story teller, the kids love her stories by the campfire each night!

eating lots of junk!

Playing cards with grampa, is always a fun time!

we went mini golfing...

and rode bikes, this is Anaya's bike which Lucy learned to ride, it helps having pavement, we have none!

Oh and lots of fishing! 

I love how Lucy is keeping her eyes on that fish!

a little shopping on the rainy day...

I think these two were trying to catch raindrops, but one never knows for sure with these guys!

Josiah was thirsty!

look at these guys!  So dirty, and yet so cute! 

this is how they got that way, wallowing in the dirt!

It was all good, but not all clean, fun...

the dirt...

apparently to some,

made it much more fun!

Thankfully they clean up well!
