Father's Day Weekend

Last weekend we went up north again for Father's Day. When we go up north we usually leave around Porter and Campbell's bedtime so they'll sleep on the drive. This time we left in the afternoon. We hoped for the best but prepared for the worst. To our surprise they actually both did okay. Porter had a little melt down but I think that was because he was hungry. I'm sure I'm going to regret saying this but everyday seems to get a little easier with the kids.

(Like I said they were hungry)

We got to the lake a little past 5 pm. We hung out with the family, had dinner and by 8 pm the boys were ready for bed. The next day the weather was a little cool so we went on the boat for a little bit and Josh and boys went swimming after lunch.

The rest of the day we hung out around the cabin. The boys were exhausted and Porter is transitioning out of naps so by the time bedtime came he went down pretty easy.

Sunday was gorgeous so we spent most of the day by the pool because my kids love the water. You wouldn't think so if you have been following this blog and the nightmare we went through with Porter and swimming lessons.

After lunch Josh took Porter fishing while Campbell was napping and ended up catching a ton of fish. They both were really excited. 

The rest of day we spent on the boat and that's where things got interesting. Like I said before Porter doesn't nap on the weekends and so by the time we got on the boat he was going down hill fast. 

In the almost for years he's been in this world I can count on one hand how many times he's passed out from exhaustion. This might be the third time.

Once he woke up he wasn't the most pleasant person to be around so we knew it was time to bath them, pack up and head for home. 

But nothing that a little Fireman Sam can't fix.     

All in all it was a great weekend! Happy Father's Day!

Life Lately

It's been a while since I've wrote my last blog post. Life goes by so fast and before I knew it weeks went by and I'm like whoa slow done!! So here's what we've been up to lately.

Memorial weekend we went up north to my parent lake home. We didn't think the weather was going to be that nice but we lucked out. Two out of the three days were great! We got to play outside and even took the boat out. The kids love going to the lake and so do we. The only thing that held us back a little was Porter, Campbell and myself had some nasty colds going on. Who gets a cold in the summer? It really sucked but we powered through it.

Cam-belly!

Yep that happened! Proud mommy moment right there.

Porter went fishing with Josh, my brother and Grandpa and loved it!

Fudgesicle anyone?

We also celebrated my niece's second birthday. Gosh these kids are growing up too fast. I can't believe she two!  

To much cake and not enough sleep makes for one tired boy. Passed out cold.

Dance party anyone?

Josh and I also celebrated our five year anniversary on May 30. We didn't do a whole lot since we went to Toronto and we're going to Napa in July. But I can say I love  him more with every passing day. He is a wonderful husband and best father a child could ask for. I can't wait to celebrate 50 more.

We look so young ... and rested.

This past weekend we went out with our friends to Surly Brewing Co. We'd never been there before and hear it was fun. It was a really neat place and HUGE. I can't even tell you how many people were there. The only thing that sucked was we had to wait two hours for our table. Luckily we were in good company and the weather was nice. 

Sorry Jannae just to funny not to post. Love you:)

My friends husband works for Polaris and drove the new Slingshot motorcycle. Only Austin would take this out on a date with a possibility of rain. It was the talk of the brewery. It was such a fun night I can't wait to do it again soon. Next stop VEGAS!!!!
