Another summer with adventures at Valley Fair

Fourth of July

A family photo for the Fourth!
At the Chanhassen parade where they toss out tons of candy, toothbrushes, popsicles, sunglasses and other random assortments.

Lake Week 2017

Enjoyed another wonderful and company-ful week at the Lake: 22 family members + one Casey dog.
Colin and Syd were so happy to play with their cousins ages 1 year to 21 years old.

There was fun on the wave runner and the Molecule

The annual trek to the Dairy Bar

Sydney is carrying on Justis' legacy of ordering the Superman... 

Launching dozens of water balloons with sling shots and cross bows

And, just all around Lake goofiness!

Not sure the swim platform survives another season

Bubbles! 

Checking out the secret door to the crawl space!

No idea

Much hammocking!

Last day at the Lake

Flag Football

A winning season (4-3) for his first try at flag football. He enjoyed playing on the same team, the Cardinals, with some of his buddies: Birkir, Xane, Daniel and Nolan.

Ford tough

Thankfully, they're wearing bikes helmets. It only took until the 2nd day to figure out how to Tokyo drift this Ford truck. 

Pokeman in the park.

At the kidapalooza park event, Sydney was freaked out at the Pikachu, but we snapped a quick pic of her and CP when she warmed up to it.

Last Day of 3rd Grade!

Colin had mixed feelings about the end of the school year. He hopes to see his school pals over the summer at sports and playdates.
