A couple seagulls hanging out on the house one bright, sunny morning



Much better were the 6 hawks resting on an old barn silo one day when I didn't have a camera. That photograph is my white whale. anyway, Jared still got a kick out of the seagulls



The boys having some fun in the kitchen



Our littlest is so close to walking now



Hey D!



Don't bump your head on the table little man



Hey everybody!



Our wonderful boys enjoying a nice late-summer day on their porch bench



Visiting Aunt Debbie and Uncle Chuck's cabin, here we see Jared and cousin Samantha ready to get underway on the boat



Aunt Debbie and cousin Ethan up to speed



It was a little chilly, but what a perfect northwoods evening



Jared taking a hand at fishing for the first time



Wait, I feel something...



Jared catches a fish on his first trip fishing!
No records here with this little marlin, but how bout that for my boy?
Btw, did it just get dark?



Devin and Mama getting ready for a trip on the boat the next morning



Gots to protect da baby!



Jared and Ethan disembark onto the sandbar, toys at the ready



Hey everyone!



Devin and Samantha playing ham for the camera



And without fail, little D grabs for the nearest electronic device he can



Jared and Ethan hanging out in the water



More lake fun



Chuck and Ethan wander down the beach a bit



A couple more years D, then you can head out there too



Jared and Ethan heading out to open water. Just kidding, it's still right near the beach



More water fun



On the way home we stopped at Junction Valley Railroad near Frankenmuth. We didn't even know this place existed



As you can see, it's a rideable-scale railroad that goes through a few acres of adventure



Mama and the boys getting ready in the hopper car



Daddy and the bear ready to get this train started



It was pretty cool, but I have to say, everything in this place needed a new coat of paint



There's the "lake" filled with "water" that the train circles around



Halfway through the trip, the train stops so you can get out and play a bit or just grab some snacks...



...as we see Jared about to partake



Here's a shot of the playground. Like I said, everything needs a bit of cleaning and some paint, but the price was reasonable and the boys sure had fun
