We got to take a little 4th of July getaway to Michigan and stay up at the cottage. We got in late Thursday, but thankfully didn't need to take any rest breaks. First thing Friday morning Evelyn, Jameson, Nate, and Grandpa Paul went fishing.
The fish were biting at least for Evelyn, Jameson, and Nate. Evelyn and Nate caught a couple bass while Jameson caught a few smaller perch.
Evelyn loved jumping off the dock and splashing in the water. Jameson not so much. Even with the extra sand, I don't think he liked the feel on his feet. The swing however was always a favorite, no matter what other fun activity we did that day.
The new thing for us this year was a tube ride around the lake. Nate and I weren't so sure Jameson would want to go by himself, but he did great.
We went swimming at the sand bar early on Saturday before it got too busy.
Nate and the kids got a tow back to the cottage.
Other fun stuff included target practice with the BB gun,
Relaxing in the hammock,
Catching bull frogs,
And enjoying some sparklers on the 4th.
On Sunday before heading home we got to do one last fun thing. We met Amanda, Isaac, and Joshua for a nature walk. Despite being super hot, everyone had a good time.
