Dad's Week Off

Wading at the beach the day we arrived. Mom wasn't quite in the mood to attempt a full beach excursion on her own.
Wyatt liked the water. :)

So did Natalee.

Wyatt's hot tub. He hated it by the end of the week...

The mother deer was so tame! We fed her food out of our hands.

Momma deer and her two babies in our front yard.

"The Dock." We spent many minutes throwing stones in the water...

The Cabin. Well, 2 out of 3 "wings".

Wyatt's favourite game to play with his big brothers. Sit and squish.

Caleb enjoying the water.

Wyatt getting down to work.

More delicious work.

Andrew's wave...love it!

Natalee & Andrew "in charge" of the food. We were getting ready to make s'mores.

Mmmmmm, s'mores!

Mini-golf...9 year old style. Not too bad.

5 year old style...aka hockey-golf.

Game's over (for the boys) and Mom hasn't even golfed 4 holes yet.

Wyatt keeping busy during the 5 minute golf game...
Next is one of my favourite series of Wyatt pictures.
It's called, "Wyatt eats a pinecone".



Ummmmm, bad idea.


Good idea!

Oh yeah!


On the dock just before sunset, tummies full of ice cream, almost ready for bed...

Sleep time. Wyatt LOVED sleeping with Natalee. Natalee didn't enjoy it nearly as much.

School park...

You have no idea how many comments I get whenever I take my 5 children out. Some of them are nice, others are just really annoying.
Sleep time. Yes, this is how I found them, fast asleep! :)

Hot dog? Of course, Wyatt needs to taste it...

Wyatt's favourite new toy.
S'mores, made indoors after the kids were all in bed, on a rainy cold night, the night before we left...sniff sniff.

I am no photographer, but who could resist these? We couldn't! :)

Saturday morning, cuddling in bed.

Scavenger hunt results. 1 piece of birch bark, 2 mushrooms, 3 fern leaves, 4 flowers, 5 dandelions, 6 black stones, 7 oak leaves, 8 berries, 9 pinecone, 10 smooth pebbles.
The picture of the sunset didn't turn up here like it was supposed to. Thanks Blogger.
