Summer is here and we couldn't be happier!
Patrick completed a quadrathon on Sunday morning - Swiming across the lake, biking 30 miles, running around the lake and then skiing!
I took the kayak alongside the swimmers and then walked Jojo around the lake in the jogging stroller - not bad, considering those hills!
Patrick is the main waterskier this summer - with Dad's shoulder surgery this past winter and my growing belly - we are both riding the pine this year :(
Mom and Dad had Thomas and Josiah this weekend --- Lisa and Ed had a wedding in Chicago, so it was a fun filled, sleep deprived weekend with Grammy and Buppa! This was Jojo's first weekend away from Mom and Dad - and he did great! (except for that whole not sleeping much at night thing!)
Here are the boy's in the Model A - Thomas loves to take rides with Buppa
- Jojo just got in for the picture!
Jojo is such a happy smiley kid - we had a great time playing with him and practicing being a family of 3. We joke that our kid could look a lot like him --- red hair and blue eyes --- not a bad combo!
Thomas and Buppa were buds again all weekend. Dad got him to do all sorts of water activities - some more willing than others - but he had a great time!
After lunch Dad and Thomas went for a jetski ride --- he left all smiles and laughing --- 5 minutes later, back in and totally asleep!
Patrick and I had a little fun while he was napping!
Then after 4pm Buppa took Thomas sailing --- he loved this and did a great job shifting his little butt from side to side when they were coming about!
Probably a great lesson in listening and following directions
- if you don't - you get wet!
- if you don't - you get wet!
This was Jojo's first real summer weekend at the cottage - he loved the water and the sand! The water is up a lot this year so we were glad to see that Uncle Mark and Karen still had a little beach left for some digging!
Jojo was not interested in ANY of the hats Lisa and Ed had packed for him --- so I coverd his head in sunscreen --- it seemed like the perfect opportunity to create a new do! No sunburn for this kid!
Andy and Heidi came up to the cottage this weekend after running the Madison half Marathon. It was a hot and sweaty day so it was the perfect way to cool down and relax!
We know summer will go fast - especially with the baby on the way - but hope and plan to spend lots of time at the cottage - relaxing and floating for me and training for Patrick! Hooray for summer!
