 Today we decided to play tourist.  There are so many fun things to do in our area.  We drove up to Eagle River with some family and friends and went to Kartway and out to lunch.  Kartway has this super awesome water balloon launcher.  Really...way fun for adults.  I think we should build one in our back yard.
 Roo and I on the Go-Karts.  He loved them.  Isn't he just the cutest?
Taking a break from life is something we should do more often.  We have lived here (as married folk) for 8 yrs.  We've never...ever done the tourist thing and it was a blast!

4K grad

 Ooops....I don't know how, but I didn't add this MAJOR event to my blog.  See the kid in the blue grad hat??? Yup...that's my B.Herb.  4K graduate people.  On to kindergarten.  Kindergarten.  You know how people say "by the time your kids are that age you're ready for them to go."  Yeah..well...they're big fat liars.  I am NOT ready for him to go to school Mon-Fri all day. 
 Isn't he just the cutest little man you've ever seen.  I know.  Thanks.
 Daddy and Roo proudly watching the graduate
 How adorable is this?  Hank is so proud of his big bro.


 I have enjoyed watching this precious baby grow into the little boys he's becoming.  God bless you Herb.  You're a great kid. 

Cousin fun

 Grammie and Grandpa rented jet skis for the day.  Hank and Herb are fans.  Big time.  I told Brody he should get me one next year for Mother's day....I'll let you know if I get that instead of a macaroni dyed necklace.  (Don't hold your breath.)  Anyway....Hank likes to go in "S'es, by the trees, over BIG waves.....really...really fast."  Brody likes to go "32 or faster."  Momma loves jet skis.
 Brody and his cousin Jonas
 If this isn't a sign it's nap time the temper tantrum (because he couldn't have a jack knife) was.   He got mad at Brad and told him he could "never..ever...ever...ever..come to his birthday parties ever again."  Gonna be a bummer not having Brad at his party.  Oh well.  More cake for me.


Brad turns 37!

 Happy 37 Brad!!  Brad and his Dad share the same birthday.  Grandpa is in all his glory with all of his grandkids.  That's a happy man!!! Not to mention some angel food cake.....


 Brody decided to try water-skiing today.  He gave it one good try, got a face full of water and decided that was enough for today.  He's game to try tommorrow.  Meanwhile.....Mom is having a heart attack from the dock.  The Roo is part fish.  He may have gills by the end of summer.  Both the Kowboys have taken a strong liking to jumping off the dock.  Can you say AWESOME???  Last year they were both too frightened to try but this year....not so much.  Fun. Fun. Fun.
