Labor Day Weekend

We had a great Labor Day weekend, the weather wasn't perfect, it was hot but we had fun with Aunt Ali, Uncle Troy and Gma, and we celebrated Grandpas birthday so it was a win. Here are a few pictures of our adventures.  We took a trip to the water slides, the kids beg me all summer and we always wait until the last weekend they are open we took them for 1 hour and it was plenty. I am not sure why I dread it so much, next summer they will be older and I will brave it alone.

 Owen still likes the kiddie section.

 The big kids were all smiles and even dad participated in the fun.

 Looks like I missed good pics of Caitlin.

 Owen going down the slide.

 Then we hit the beach, we had Julia with us and that was perfect adding another kid makes everyone happy.

 Grandma meet us there and we had a nice relaxing afternoon.

Troy taking the kids for a boat ride. Great weekend!

Another little slice of heaven!

 Last weekend was cool and we had some gorgeous sunsets, don't ask about the sunrises I have no idea.

 Carl and I have been busy busy busy trying to find a way...................

 To make sure that we can always have a clear view to Leo's dock I mean if not we will never know when the fish are biting !

 And our kids love love walking through the woods to see Leo and Sandra....

 So keep your fingers and your toes crossed!!!!!

If all goes well this little slice of heaven will be all ours in two weeks. The .5 acres between us and Leo, the perfect size for a little addition to the house, a three car garage or maybe in the short term just a tree fort for the kids!!!!

First Day of School

 Look who started kindergarten ! Oh boy well he is not as excited about school as his brother and sister but he is doing fine for now and I think that smile will get him far! THANK GOD!

 Caitlin ready to tackle the world, with her new outfit and backpack. Third Grade!

 Big Man on campus 5th Grade!!!!

Isle of Sheppe

After two days in Cornwall it was off to  The Isle of Sheppe which was only about 2 hours from London but about 7 hours from our current location!!!

Carl just had to stop at Stonehendge I wasn't really feeling it as we could see rocks from the road, but I had to pee so bad and we were in such bad traffic I was ready for a walk.

All Priechenfrieds in  this picture , Nathan, Arnold , Owen, Caitlin and Rufus

The pool I never got in, it was freezing!  Freezing Freezing cold

The Isle of Sheppe, it was quiet and nice.

The other Priechenfried in this picture is Arnold shown in stripped shirt, Nate had fun with him, he is 8 but the same height as Nathan!

This is cousin Rufus and Owen had so much fun with him all week, they are the same age.

Mary Ann and I walked... as did everyone else to this town this bar, it was fun. I wish I could have stayed at the bar longer lol!!

Everyone must ring the bell
