A Busy Four Day Weekend

We had a four day weekend and kept ourselves very busy!

Thursday was our Anniversary and Mike and I celebrated by going out to dinner at Log Haven. We have been there before, but the food was amazing this time! Thank you honey, I love ya!

Friday Robin and I took the kids to the zoo while the guys were working on the boat. Alli loved the animals. Can you tell?






Then after the zoo we headed to Paige's competition. She did awesome! First and second place. She is improving so much, it amazes me!


Saturday morning we finished the competition and then headed to the boat for an overnight stay. All the kids headed to Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Bill's house. The weather was great on Saturday and it was nice to kick back and relax. We headed in a little early because there was a storm brewing.
After we finished our BBQ at the dock the rain started pouring and poured all night. Good thing we had the boat to find shelter in. We just hung out, played games, and watched movies. It was a Birthday (my brother's) and Father's Day outing.
Sunday morning we braved the rain and picked up the kids. Then we headed up to Grandpa Old Guy's house for a great Father's Day dinner.

Sail Fest 2011

We went to Sail Fest this year out at the marina. The boat is kind of out of commission right now, but we slept out there at the dock and had a great time. Saturday they had breakfast for us and then they had card board box races. They were hilarious! When I first heard about it I pictured people hooking sails to shoe boxes and seeing if they would go. I didn't realize that people would actually be in the boats. After that they had a carnival for the kids. At night we had a BBQ, steak always seems better on the boat. The kids also had fun catching brine shrimp.

Paige's Birthday Celebration

Paige had a great Birthday this year. We had a BBQ and although the weather wasn't the best we still had fun. We had to move our party indoors and I was surprised that we were able to pull it off with about 30 people in our house.
Paige got a ton of cool presents and was happy she finally has a pillow pet. In fact, she has two now. Her big present this year is scuba lessons and now we are just waiting for Uncle Mike to get better so she can start.


My mom made this island cake for Paigey. She loved it!!

My Uncle Jack and Aunt Chris were in town and I'm so happy they were able to celebrate with us. It was nice to see them. I was able to see my Aunt last year, but I think it had been about 20 years since I had seen my Uncle.
