It didn't take long for everyone to jump in the water the afternoon we arrived!
Brutus's favorite thing was sticking his face in the water and searching for rocks
The last time these cuties were all together we were in a condo on the beach in Florida. Wyatt was a newborn, Benton was 6months old and not mobile, Elly wasn't fully up to speed to keep up with Kynz and Kynzley was in the middle of 4k. Now they are all playing together and making amazing memories!!!
Benton's first leach
The kids had so much fun tie dying their own tshirts at the main lodge with our great friend Ms. Heidi
Tubing time!
Little Miss Firecracker, Elly, did amazing keeping up with Kynzley!
Wyatt was so excited to catch a (dead!) fish bare handed! Note: picture was taken moments before he put the fish in his mouth!
Brutus had the time of his life this year. Last year he was a brand new pup and it was pretty quiet around the place when we stayed. This year he had so many people and dogs to play with!! He enjoyed running on the beach, splashing in the water, taking walks, visiting the neighbor pups, and making the kiddos giggle!

*Since it took me awhile to collect photos (from numerous cameras) from our cabin week, I might as well add to the blog since we have continued to be busy. Since we've been home the kids have enjoyed some fun alone time with daddy - they went hiking and enjoyed one (of the many) local aquatic centers.
Kynzley made a huge decision, cut off all her hair and decided to donate it to Wigs for Kids! We are so proud of the choice she made all on her own. We went in for her yearly back to school trim and as she plopped in the chair she surprised us with her choice to cut it all off. I had tears of sadness and tears of proudness! This girl has a huge heart!
We, also, made a quick trip to visit the new addition to the family - Miss Inga Thormodson. What a sweet little girl! It will be fun to see where she fits in this crazy bunch of kiddos!
Sending her hair off!
The kiddos put on a performance for us
If Kynzley could have put Inga in our suit case and bring her home she would have!

On our way home from our family visit we stopped at the Como Zoo!
This was the neatest thing! This gorilla was laying in front of the window with it's back turned, millions of kids were trying to get it's attention and it never flinched. Kynzley made her way to the window and silently stood looking at the amazing wonders when the gorilla sat up, turned around and started rubbing the window. At one point there was a giant smile out of the huge animal. After a couple quick pictures we let other kids have a turn. As Kynzley walked away the gorilla turned it's back again and ignored the rest of the crowd.
