4th of July Shenanigans

Busy, busy, busy! That describes our weekend to a 'T'! We were on the go from Friday afternoon to Monday evening. We had a blast spending lots of time together!

Friday afternoon we packed up and headed out to hike. We chose a destination new to us - it was beautiful! We enjoyed exploring, rock climbing, looking for wild life and occasionally stepping off the trail to explore deeper! At one point we found a very old abandoned car in the middle of the woods, Kynzley had a great time coming up with a story on how it got there and what happened to the people that drove it. She has a great imagination!

*Wildcat Mountain State Park, Ontario, WI

It was neat that the kiddos (and us too) got to see a baby fawn


She says bear



Kynzley made the whole hike with Julie on her back! This was her favorite part - rock climbing



She said badger


After a day of hiking the kids got to us their Buffalo Wild Wings certificates for dinner. They have been doing a summer reading program and have earned lots of prizes along the way. Three months worth of reading and Kynzley finished it in two weeks. She loves to read!!! Benton has officially finished his reading this week! 


On Saturday we packed up the boat and hit the river for an afternoon in the sun and water! We had a great time! Kynzley tubed a bit, we explored up and down the river and found a sandbar to splash in. 




On Sunday night, Francis took Kynzley on a date to see fireworks in a near by town. The two of them had a blast! #daddysgirl


We spent the actual 4th on our local lake with our neighbors! We all had a blast! Kynzley introduced the girls to tubing. Benton even got out of the tube! It's great having such good friend so close by :)
Happy 4th of July 2016! Kynzley 6, Benton 2
