Hannan and Leske Week

Before the week started,

we got a show as a crew came

to take down the neighbor's trees.

After breakfast,

we headed out to supervise

while the tree removers worked.

Papa was really happy

to see some of the view-blocking limbs removed.

Shortly after they were done,

our first guests of the week showed up,

the Hannans!

Auntie Linda was also able to

show up for this week.

It worked out perfectly

as I had taken the entire week off from work.

We had a blast swimming,

fishing, coloring, walking and boating.

The kiddos were a little scared

of the lake.

So...

when they decided to try swimming

with their clothes on,

we didn't mind a bit!

It was tough to say our goodbyes

at the end of the week,

but we know October will come soon.

I was able to sneak away

and meet up with my old neighbor, Heather

and her sister, Laura

and all their children.

The girls had fun eating McDonalds

and running around Anderson Gardens

with the kiddos.

We got back to the lake to pick-up Linda

then headed over to Stacey & Eric's

for a play date.

Bridger hooked the kids up with popsicles

and they played on the new play set.

Sara is still clearly smitten with Bridger.

She wouldn't stop hugging him.

Emmy and Anna tolerated each other.

And Ty just tried to keep up with them all.

After our play date,

we drive into town to grab a pizza

and take it to the Ripley campgrounds

to visit Uncle Mike.

We walked to the park

and played a long game of hide & seek.

It was a little chilly

but the girls didn't complain.

 

When we got back to the lake,

we took the boat out for one last ride.

Sara did a great job with the boat lift

during our entire trip.
