4th of July weekend

We enjoyed the long weekend and having Daddy home with us four days in a row! We took a day trip to my parents cottage in Canada on Sunday. It was a fun day of playing on the beach and chasing the kids all around. It was the first time this summer for the twins to visit the cottage so everything was very new and exciting. They loved the lake and they loved trying to eat anything they could find on the beach. Needless to say Mike and I were very tired by the end of the day. Of course none of the kids fell asleep in the car on the way home! Luckily we got to the border and I think the guy had some sympathy for us. Mike rolled down the window in the back and the guy saw three whining kids and two dogs. Mike handed him the papers and the guy quickly waived us through. THANK YOU!!
Last year we were not so lucky on one visit. We got pulled over for a random search and they told us EVERYONE had to get out of the car. I think I almost started to cry. Really?! How could they do that to us. Now everytime we just hope that doesn't happen again.

Some recent and random pictures from my phone....

At the pool eating pretzels

At her first dentist appointment. She loved it!

Playing in the sprinkler in their clothes. Sometimes it's too much of a production to change both of them into their bathing suits



Passed out after the long day at the cottage.  No paci anymore, it's officially gone after three years! It was a very sad goodbye :-(
