It has been one fun-filled summer for us. As you can see from the pictures, we have been busy with camping, swimming, ferry boat rides, and much more. We went camping over the 4th of July weekend in Eldora, Iowa with Corey, Nicole, Owen, Mom, Dad, and Grandma Nona.Justin got to go on his first ferry boat ride on the Cassville ferry. He wasn't sure what to think about it. He liked it, but he kept asking, why is Papa Rick driving the van on this boat?
We all got to go the Field of Dreams in Dyersville, Iowa. Justin loved playing baseball on the field. Unfortunately, the corn wasn't tall enough for us to walk out of it, just like in the movie. Maybe next time :-)
Karson doesn't appear to be like Justin at all when it come to the water. Justin has been like a fish since the first time we took him in the water, but Karson hated his first experience in the pool. He pouted and screamed the whole time, even when we held him. We thought maybe it was a fluke, but he hasn't liked it any better since then. I am determined to get him to like the water though, so we will keep trying. Maybe he will like it next year.
Nana Judy & Papa Bud's swimming pool had a hole in it that had to be repaired before they could get it ready for the summer. To pacify Justin in the mean time, we broke out the Slip 'n Slide. He had a great time, even though the water was freezing. His lips were turning blue and he was shaking, but he didn't want to stop. He is a diehard water lover!
