Our Summer Vacation

I've finally gotten around to putting this post up! Woo Hoo!

These pictures are of our family vacation. We went to Gull Lake Ministries for a week of family camp. A few families from our church were there also. We had such a wonderful time. We kept busy, but were able to relax and enjoy each other.




Every night had a theme. From a carnival, to a rodeo, to the adult banquet nights(our favorite) , we were never bored.

Here is Jason taking the boys on the kiddy train during the carnival night.

Snow cones!


Isaac on the inflatable, bouncy, thing. Why don't they make those for adults?!


     
 Annabelle, ready for a day in the sun. 


 
We took a pontoon ride on the lake with our friends, the Cochranes.



Everybody had to wear a life vest, so as ridiculous as it seemed, 3 week old Olivia donned one as well. It gave us all quite a laugh.



Our favorite, daily activity was going to the beach.

Annabelle liked the sand and mud the best.



I think Isaac and Seth liked the ice cream the best.





The week we were there, Seth had his 3rd birthday.
We had a little make shift party for him.


The boys playing with Seth's new play-doh.


Mommy and daddy with the birthday boy.



We also went to the Binder Park zoo. This was the cutest animal there, a red panda.
It was just draped over a tree branch for the longest time. SO CUTE! I want one.


We went with Bart, Debbie and Ethan Glupker.
Thanks for inviting us guys, we had a great time.


Daddy forcing Seth to touch the scary goats.



This was the coolest zoo! They even had dinosaurs!
They didn't let us get too close though. This was the best shot we could get.


A little bit braver now, the boys with the goats.


The zoo had a place where we could pet and feed the giraffes! 
They are such gentle, beautiful creatures.
Annabelle didn't think so though.

We took a cute, little train around the children's zoo.

The boys made a friend at the zoo. A giant fire ant!
