It is the middle of June of which means it was time for our annual vacation with my family. We had been getting for what felt like weeks, partly because Jennifer was so excited. For about two weeks she asked everyday if it was time for vacation, each time we went to the store she thought everything was for vacation, so we had one excited girl when it the day finally came for us to pack up and leave.
The day before we leave is always a busy day around our house. There are goodies to be made, lots of packing to do and then cleaning from the mess we make making stuff. As always the girls were eager to help with everything, especially the cooking! They always make baking a little more interesting!
Mikayla has reached the point that she does not want to be left out of anything, she needs a turn doing everything Jennifer does. She is loving to help in the kitchen too.
Do you not love this shirt?! This is Bill's vacation shirt. He only wears on vacation and Friday morning before we left Jennifer thought she should put it on. And so she proceeded to wear it for pretty much the rest of the day, only shedding it when we arrived at the cabin and then her swimming suit was the next thing on. She wore this lovely shirt into the gas station, rest spot and into the fast food restaurant we stopped for at lunch time. When your on vacation you don't really care!
In the van and ready to go! Two very excited girls.
The weather was great when we got to the cabin so once everyone had arrived and everything was unpacked it was time to hit the water. The kids were pretty excited to go swimming.
Mikayla was pretty excited to get her swimming suit on but she was pretty happy to just play in the sand, although she did get in the water eventually, just not the first day.
I have lots more pictures of vacation, literally hundreds more, I got a little carried away with picture taking this year. So there will be more to come! This was after all just the first day!
