Hooray ~ the long wait it over, schools out!! Excited for a fun laid back summer. We made it up to Deer Creek reservoir for a 4 day weekend. We repeated what we did about 2 weeks ago, it was a tad bit warmer. We also had the boat with us, which was nice not to sit on the shore the whole time but spend some time on the lake. Here are some pics from the trip.
Alivia like telling ghost stories while we sat around the camp fire and Cooper did not want to be a part of it so he covered his ears.
Ben on the lake with his pontoon.
The kids played charades around the camp fire, I have the funniest video from that. The kids were mimicking each other, I am pretty sure it is going to be a treasure especially when they get older.
Bauer and one of his fish.
More charades, Bauer is pretty good at guessing what people are acting like.
Alivia waiting patiently for a fish.
Watching Ben untangle a fish out of the net.
Ben doesn't like sitting around the camp fire very often. He doesn't like to go to bed smelling like smoke. However he graced us with his presence a few times.
Ben and one of his fish from the pontoon. Also he donated his favorite sunglasses to the bottom of Deer Creek.

Cooper every time we go to Deer Creek often asks why people don't go up to the top of this mountain?? and comments that he wants to hike to the top of the mountain. I never thought he actually would.....Ben took him across the bay to fish and he asked if he could go up a ways and before Ben knew it he was half way up the mountain. Well not my idea of a super smart thing to do, I knew it could take one mis-step and he could loose his footing and tumble down the mountain. He didn't though, thank goodness. He was pretty proud of himself and said he didn't want to do that again, that it took too long.
