Last of Michigan

We've had plenty of fun times with Tyler off of work and the summer weather finally here. Makenzie had school until June 16th, so that kept us from going too far. We did sneak down to Sandusky, Ohio to stay overnight at the Kalahari Indoor Waterpark Resort. We went before in November, but wanted to go again with our friends the de la Houssayes. Sorry no pictures were taken. I didn't want to deal with a camera, water, and the kids. Jordan barely made the minimum height requirement for the slides which was lucky because he loved all the slide he could ride on. Most were dark tube slides and he had no fear. Makenzie loved her time there as well and her favorite thing was the wave pool. Gavin soaked up all that he could too. It was a fun time all around!

We have been really trying to instill the practice of "reverence" with our children, especially in sacrament meeting. We gave them the incentive of doing a fun family activity for FHE that they got to choose if they were acceptably reverent in church. Well, it has taken several weeks and many reminders, but they finally earned their activity. They decided to go miniature golfing.

We paid the $2 for Gavin just to hold the club and ball in his hand.
He would not let us help him in the least.

He got a hole-in-one every time!

The happy parents!



So what is wrong with this picture?

This is after he just got out of the tub and I got him ready for bed.
I guess he wanted to play with Makenzie in the tub too!

Makenzie had some fun activities the last few weeks of school. The school did a mile fun run around the neighborhood. We went and cheered her on.

Here she is sporting her school shirt.

Coming into the finish line with her friend Brynlee. I was quite impressed that she came in with the first third or so of the runners. She told me she had to walk a few times though.
