4th of july
We headed up north to Park Rapids to visit Ellie, Shawn, Conley & Sofie (and their chickens!). As always, we had so much fun with them! We relaxed by the bonfire, some of us napped (Joel!!), went for a boat ride, fished in the lake (only weeds—or was it a big fish?), swam at the Nevis beach, went out for ice cream, had a blast at the Park Rapids parade and stayed up til 11pm to watch the fireworks! Wow! Here are some pictures from the weekend! Thank you for a weekend full of fun memories everybody!
Here are some cute pictures at the parade!
This is when Joel caught the really big “fish”!!!
How cute is Charlie in this one? Even with the leftover lunch still on his face!!!
Charlie putting out the bonfire. He made sure to put extra water on the firewood!
Charlie acting goofy as usual!
Mint chocolate chip ice cream with a sugar cone please!!!!
Look at how cute Sofie is in this one! She was trying out her ear phones before the fireworks started!
On our way to finding the perfect spot for fireworks.
Will’s first experience with fireworks! When they were finished he signed for “more”!!
Will (and myslef) was in awe at all the fireworks! They were pretty amazing!
You can’t visit Nevis without taking a ride (or 10) on the “Wee” (sp)!!!!
One final photo of Charlie on the ATV! Doesn’t he look cool??!!
I love those three pictures of Charlie – I feel like they perfectly represent his personality.
I thought you might mention something about the “DISASTER!” that occured on the way home which Claire e-mailed us about last night.
