July 4th at the Lake

We're back!  For July 4th weekend, we headed up for a few days at the lake with my family.  Gigi decided to cook us up a storm and we had all the kids together for a few days going crazy.

Me with the kids on the jetski.

I accidentally flipped Avery off the back, but she's tough.  Carter only wanted to go fast.

We also packed Carter's jeep for the trip so the girls used it as transportation up and down the path to the lake.  Unfortunately, I had to push it back up the hill each time, because I didn't test how the new battery worked (not very well), but the girls had fun.  3 commas in one sentence!

 Carter was hilarious taking care of Madison.  Here he is "reading" a book, but was always looking out for her, talking about her, wondering where she was, etc.
 Gigi also put on some cooking lessons for the kids.
The girls did a great job making dessert.  I did a great job eating it.  +10lbs for the weekend!

  Bubble making machines!

We also got to try out the float that Mom and Dad got us for a Christmas present.  Basically it was a big couch that the kids could sit on that was easy to ride.  All of the kids loved it including Carter.  He almost fell asleep on it one time he was so tired, but wanted to go faster and over bigger bumps.  Avery also all of a sudden decided she wanted to go knee boarding.  Then did it.  First try.  She's such a rockstar.

Laura got this great video before I flipped her off the jetski as well.  Amazingly she saved her phone from going in the water.
