Vacation and Colt's Camp!

These pics are from this summer, but I wanted to make sure they made it on the blog!  We took advantage of Nate's family owning a lake cottage and went there for our little family vacation this year!  It was so relaxing and the kids really love it there.  It was a very hot week with no air conditioning, but we still had fun :)  Hannah asks to go back to the lake often!  We also went to the Colt's training camp with my sister, brother-in-law, and nephew Josiah! It was a lot of fun...GO COLTS!


Maggie and Papa Jack came up to spend time with us at the lake!

New sunglasses!  Hannah loves hers, Seth won't keep them on :) 

Mornings are beautiful at the lake!

Hannah puts on her hands on her hips all the time!

Happy Seth

Hannah was taking care of her princess!

They really do love each other. It makes me so happy to see them together.

 COLT'S CAMP!!!
He was sleepy and sporting his Super Bowl Champs bib!

Hannah likes to say "Go Team Go!

My sister Allison, brother in law Paul, and sweet nephew Josiah!

Hannah seemed a little nervous but let this player hold her (not sure his name)!

Next we wanted her to let Gary Bracket hold her...she was terrified! 

We had a great time (other than the crying! )  Have a good week!

Fun at the Zoo

Hannah has been asking to go to the zoo all summer.  She loves animals and loves watching Barney at the Zoo! I think Seth liked it too! He is such a good baby, just takes it all in and never makes a fuss!  We went with some family and had a great time! Hannah can recall so many specific things from the zoo.  Her memory is very good!  Her favorite stories she tells are about feeding the giraffe, the sharks and dolphins dancing, her cousin Emery racing the cheetah, and the mommy daddy tigers!   Hannah just won passes to the zoo from the library, so looks like we will get to go again soon!! Yay! 

Cousins, Friends, and Aunts!

Hannah and Grandma feeding the giraffe.  Hannah kept saying "No, no, no, Grandma's turn!"  She didn't like the long tongue!




Petting the sharks!  The sharks would come up and look like the were "dancing"! Hannah talks about it all the time! 

I LOVE her face in this picture. She is running away from the aquarium, terrified of the seal!

We really liked the meerkats!

Vacationing with Family

Way back at the end of June and over the 4th of July, we had two different vacations with both sides of the family.  At the end of June, we went on our annual "Glamping" trip with my side of the family.   We went to Brown County, IN where we stayed in a large cabin with air conditioning and showers but also did camping type things like hiking and campfire cooking!   Over the 4th of July, we went up to the Clark's lake cottage and spent time with family!  Both trips were great fun!  Below are tons of pictures from the two trips...
