Memorial Wknd at the Lake!

Checkin' out the water at the lake! 

Em's first time swimming in the lake.  Water temp was 70 degrees and they loved it! 
 Hailey was a little more timid.
 Addy LOVES being at the lake.  She probably said more than 10 times randomly throughout the weekend "Mom, I love it here."  "Mom, I love this place."  Etc. :) :)
 This was the first weekend we were able to bring up guests!!  We took our great neighbors!  They have a 7 year old boy and 5 year old twin girls.  We love them! Here they are getting ready to run in the lake to catch a football. :)
 ...and now they are tired.  :)  Hailey, Em, Addy
 Hailey
 Addison
 Emily
 The guys blew up the "blue lagoon" raft thing which was A.MA.ZING :)
 Our neighbors were up the first half of the weekend and then Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Kim came for the last part!  Here's Grandma and Addison living it up. :)
 Being goofy.  Hailey, Addy, me, and Em - notice how Emily is rolling her tongue here?  I can do that too and I can't remember if Ryan can/cannot...but Addison and Hailey can't!  I'm especially amazed that Emily can do it if Hailey can't because it's a hereditary thing to be able to do that right?  And they are identical!  So if you ever can't tell who's who, ask them to roll their tongue. :)  EMILY can do it! :) Ha!
 SUNSET!

 A muskrat sighting!
 Emily and Addison loved waking up early and watching the fisherman come right by our place! They were catching a ton of fish!
 And...I'm addicted to sunsets. :)


 Sooo beautiful!!!!
 Here all the kids are going on a hike in the rain :)  (Addison K, Addison, Avery, Owen, Emily, Hailey)
 And the grown ups! Ryan & I,  Luke & Laura!  (sorry it's blurry!) SUCH a great weekend!!!  Come again friends!! :)

Baseball!

 Hailey
 Em
 Addy needing her hair re-done :)
 Super intense Hailey
 Sporty Em
 All ready for church with their shades on :)  (HAE)

 My babies.  They really are the best. :)
 Tuesday night we went to the Brewers/Giants game.  First we tailgated with Uncle Duane, Uncle Jeff, Grandpa Kim & Grandma Kathy, Shane and Jody and Erin!   Ryan has been out of town all week so too bad he missed out on the fun.  :(  But here the girls are copying goofey Uncle Duane :)


 
He got them to pick their noses!


Here we are at the zoo a different day.  We can still rock the triple stroller - even at 4 1/2! :)
 Here's Em in the front row next to the Giants dugout.  A player handed her the ball.  She didn't even know how cool that was and wasn't sure what to do when the whole crowd clapped. :) Then Hailey said "Mom, can we throw the ball back out there?"
 Then we went up to see Uncle Duane in the booth!  He was announcing radio at that point.  Hailey was VERY into it and thought it was pretty cool hearing him talk through the headphones.  It was neat to hear him call a home run while we were standing right there!
The girls only lasted 3 innings since it was right around bedtime....so we left, went up and saw Uncle Duane, and then as we were heading out, a super nice lady gave the girls smoothies from the cafeteria.  On the walk back to the car, Addy's favorite part of the whole night was Emily getting the ball...and Hailey and Emily's favorite part was getting the smoothie! :)  They have no clue how cool it is to sit in the front row!! Thanks Uncle Duane for a fun night!! :)
