The Sandwich Fair

We were off to The Sandwich Fair again this year! We have gone the past few years and it is always a GREAT day! Aubrey was more adventurous with rides this time! It was hilarious to see all the rides she wanted to try; thank God she was to short! Here are some pics from the day ...

This ride REALLY scared her! She was so excited to try it and then screamed the whole time.

Daddy and Aubrey on the ferris wheel.

Daddy won the strong man game again and Aubrey won a ball; that broke the next day.

Of course the carousel.

Of course the train.

This year they had a new item for kids. We were able to feed animals; some more interesting than others. A cow...

A camel...

goats...

donkey...

A very interesting Yak; you had to launch the food into his mouth.

A much needed rest.

We then went and played with all things farm...

We waited for the pony a LONG time!

LOOK UNCLE BRENNAN!!!

Then Aubrey and Dad looked at RV's.

Aubrey's First Day of School

UNBELIEVABLY, Aubrey had her first day of school last week! Can I just say she grew too fast! She LOVES going and it is such an exciting blessing as a parent to watch your child grow and just enjoy life! Aubrey seems to approach everything with such joy and never holds back! Evan and I can't wait to see what her future holds and we thank God daily for the blessing of being her parents! We love you Aubrey Bry!!

She jumped right in!

Gull Lake (2)

We headed to Gull Lake again a few weeks ago. This time is VERY different! There were 6 adults and 5 children between the ages of 2 and 4. It was a whirlwind week and we loved every moment spent on the lake! We went with great friends and made unforgettable memories! We caught up on life and enjoyed a string of gorgeous days!

Out on the dock again!!

Aubrey's face tells you how cold the water was...

Evan tried being brave for her, but refused to put his back in.

Some hammock time...

We brought our pool and we were very thankful for the warm water!

Play Dough!

Boating...

Canoe ride for the Newells.

We had a FULL table for dinners!

The boys did a great job entertaining the kids while dinners were being prepared...

Boating...

The gangs all here...

Aubrey found these and NEVER wanted to take them off!!!

It was great weather for sailing while we were there! We took the sunfish out a few times and Jon and Jen brought a sailboat with them. When they were given the boat it had MANY holes and problems, but they made it sea worthy!

The kids loved watching all the boys ski from the back of the boat...

We read MANY bed time stories!

We did LOTS of tubing!

There was a beach nearby the house and we enjoyed an afternoon there.

There was also a great park close to the house.

SUNSETS ARE AMAZING AT THE LAKE!
