Need I say anything?

After the log ride. Pretty much only Mike got wet, but the kids loved it. They immediately wanted to ride it again!

Mike and Alli on the Arnold's Park train... Daddy is a goofball.

Alli took a turn on the tube, too! Here she is with Mike holding on tight!!

Ian and Mike went tubing behind the boat and had a great time! I don't think Ian was so sure he'd enjoy it at first, but he warmed up after a while and had lots of fun!

Okoboji

Ian learned to ride this bike without training wheels about a week before we left for Okoboji, so we decided to bring it along. We never imagined that it would be permanently attached to his rear for the majority of the trip! He loves riding his bike now. He has a new bike that was generously donated by Europa Cycles, too, that he can't wait to try now that he's learned how to handle this little one!

Here are Ian and Alli on the carousel as we were finishing up our time at Arnold's Park.

Okoboji

We had a great time camping in Okoboji last week. Mike and I took Ian and Alli, and left Cooper and Hanna at home with Grandma Carol. We swam, went boating, played mini-golf, and went to the amusement park. It was great to spend some time with just Ian and Alli for once! We all really enjoyed the trip!!

Drink, anyone? Cooper would say "wa wa."

Coop and Hanna

Cooper and Hanna had great fun at our family gathering at the Hunemuller farm. They played for a long time with a water bottle, passing it back and forth and spilling 2/3 of the water on their shirts. They had the giggles the whole time.
