The Water is Wide

We have hit the summer in full stride. There was no post last week because we were away at Grandma Gail and Grandpa Tom's lake house. Let's catch up ...

Before we left, Lily finished up her swim lessons and Jack finished his first month of pre-school. Both are doing very well and are having an enjoyable summer. There has been lots of pool time, friend time and hot weather.

At the lake, Lily and Jack got to spend time with cousins Casey, Alli, Alex and Davis, Aunt Tracy, Uncle Stan, Aunt Kelly, Great Uncle Mike, Great Jeannie and Ivan, Frisco and Daisy. There was also a visit by cousins Wes, Trisha, Colin and Leah. The kids had a great time playing in the water, eating too many chocolate chip cookies and boat rides. Overall, a great week of fun.

On to the pictures and video ...

Knee-boarding behind the boat. Jack also knee-boarded and Grandpa Tom has some photographic proof that we will have to track down.

Dressed for halloween a bit early.


Aunt Donna is here for the week while Marcy is away for work. The kids helped do her hair yesterday afternoon while Marcy slipped away.


Jack after eating May West snack cake ... imported for me from Montreal. I share. Julie who is in the background had minor surgery after Daisy snuck up to Lil's room and snacked on her thumb.
