Happy 46th (!!) Robert!!! Thanks for always coaching us up…
keeping us laughing…
planning fun adventures…
and just being awesome in general.
We sure do love you and are thankful for another year with our very favorite Dad!! Happy Birthday!
Weekend
We missed Robert this weekend but he sure had fun with this crew…
We were ok on our own though. We had soccer and football and birthday parties galore! We even made time for the Mexaurant. We went from this Saturday night…
to this Sunday morning!
They clean up well! A good weekend for all!
More Canada
We had such a good time with these fun friends…
And enjoyed a little kid-free time! Thanks GJ!
It was pretty funny when Robert and I took the Boston Whaler out and got totally lost on the lake! Thank goodness for GPS and a cell phone with 10% battery left!! My skipper on my 3 hour tour…
Overall it was a really fun trip full of fun Canadian things, like Tim Horton’s! Also, next time I travel internationally, I’m getting Global Entry. This customs line is for the birds…
Thankfully we had plenty of time and made it back home to the babies with no problem! A great trip indeed!
Canada
Robert and I were invited to travel to Ahmic Lake in Canada to spend a few days with some friends and it was wonderful! It was a looooong trip up…13 hours! We flew from Birmingham to New York to Toronto and then drove 3 hours.
But, when we got there, this view greeted us!
Combine that with highs in the mid-70s and it was glorious! There were boat rides…
There was water skiing…
There was paddle boarding…
Most fun of all? There was adventure jumping off the boat house!
That lead to treasure hunting for Apple Watches that made their way into the lake! Unfortunately, no treasures were found!
Lots and lots of fun in Canada! More tomorrow!
More Naples
Like I said yesterday, we did all of our favorite things in Naples…and plenty of adventures that the kids talked us into! Robert took Spencer and Samantha on the jet ski…
Maxwell talked us into braving the heat for mini golf.
He and Robert both got a hole in one!
I’m not sure what happened here but GJ looks pretty pleased!
The kids knew hot to cool off afterward!
We also played tennis together for the first time down there. It ended about how I thought it would…
ha! The rackets were old and the grips were disintegrating and Samantha’s turned her hands black! Combine that with a good ball to the face by Robert and she was done! But, Maxwell and I played again another day and had a lot of fun and then I took all 3 kids back out on our last day and it was an overall success!
Of course we shot fireworks on the 4th…
and made CCCs!
We also took on another sand dollar project just liked we did in 2020…
and saw lots of movies – Maverick, the Minions, and Lightyear! The kids drank a lot of Roy Rogers on the beach…
and they all tried – and liked! – calamari!
Of course, the only question is…
when are we going back?!
