Here’s our week. . .

We started out our week in Springfield, IL with family and then slowly moved south.

The boys were fascinated by the iPad.

And fish. 

All the kids were patriotic on the Fourth.

This guy has the best facial expressions.

Silas couldn’t stay away from Ruby Cat.

The Great Grandkids with Gigi and Uncle.

This is what my kids did during the fireworks.

Serious patriotism.

Brooks eventually woke up, but Silas slept the whole time.

Boating with dad. This picture was taken at 7:30 am. They woke at 5:30 every morning.

It took some time to get everyone organized for the big family picture. (There were 126 of us!)

Wagon Ride for the kids (and adults).

Boat races.

Paddle boats. (Mark took the boys out every morning to let me sleep an extra hour. Thank you!)

Even the Grandpas got in on the racing.

Softball tournament. (My branch of the family won.)

We had an incredible trip, but we are always happy to back at home.
