Pend O' Reille Shores

Kyle was always asking to go up to the gym to play basketball

and play in the video game room.

Slam Dunk! With a little help from daddy.

Rachel & Daddy at Moose Lake

Kyle wasn't quite sure about floating on the air mattress.

Steve is showing Bryce the proper way to skip rocks.

Grandpa spent the vacation trying to sneak up on the kids and push them into the lake. He is behaving himself for the moment.

Dave, Tina, Pauline, & Rachel

Kelly, Jennifer, & Brenner

Kyle had a blast riding the SeaDoo with daddy!

Taylor & Breanna lookin' cool! Taylor & Steve have told me that

they want a jet ski by next summer.

This shoreline along the Green Monarch's is a favorite place of ours. The kids love the rocky beach and calm water.

Me and my handsome hubby!

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Kyle what are you looking at?

Kelly and Brenner relaxing on the tube.

It's Frog-o-Rama time. They have to use paddle boats to collect frogs out of the water. Who ever gets the most wins!

The infamous Kelly!!!

Can't we just all get along Kyle?

Kyle didn't like sharing mommy very much.

Just hanging around!

They look like trouble don't they?

Brenner, Bryce, & Breanna. What a bunch of cuties!

Rachel has just let go of the rope swing. Looks like she's walking on water.

Breanna's turn

Wild man Bryce is a pro.

Taylor loved the rope swing.

Kyle loves wearing swim goggles. Goofy boy!

I'm not sure she wants to get in?

All girls get the munchies.

Our little fishers.

Moose Lake

A moose taking a stroll through the lake.

Bryce, Rachel, & Steve were among the crazy, I mean the adventurous
got up at 4:30 a.m. to drive 45 minutes up a mountain and then hiked
2 miles into Moose Lake. Looks like it paid off.

This moose came out from behind everyone
and apparently gave them a little scare. They
were so busy watching the other moose that
they didn't see this one but did hear it.

Rachel said that these two moose swam and met
in the middle of the lake and gave each other
a little kiss. They talked to each other
as they swam.

Kings Island a day of fun!

King's Island, Ohio 2009

The kids are on the bridge waiting for the boat to come down.

The kids are behind the big splash, I hope!

Oh, they got a little wet. It probably felt good!


Up, up, and away!

Carlie & Taylor getting ready to get a little crazy & dizzy!

Rachel loved riding with Cole. He's just as crazy as she is!!
