Boys Only Vacation

At the end of our visit in the UP over the 4th of July, the boys stayed with Grandma Donna and Grandpa Herb for a week of fun. Adding to the fun, cousins Ellie and Emmit came for a visit and with Max and Matt across the street there was plenty of cousins to play with! The weather warmed up for the week and out came the slip-n-slide.


A car trip to Nahma Beach. Ellie and Aiden with their feet buried in the sand.
My boys are so trained to not go in the water without their life jackets!
This was by far Brendan's favorite thing to do at the beach - using Uncle Colin's kayak.
He LOVED it!

Stacey's cousin came out to do a photo shoot with all the Pomeroy cousins - lots of kids to take pics of! Many thanks to her cousin, Brooke, Stacey, Lindsey and Donna for all the silly things I'm sure they did to keep the kids entertained and smiling!

My two cuties - it is nearly impossible these days to get a photo with Aiden actually looking at the camera.
How cool are they??

He loves holding babies!
Making big plans I'm sure.

Just being cute.
Growing up so fast.
The 'big' kids!

The boys had a wonderful visit, but were ready to come home toward the end of the week. We enjoyed the week as well, although Wellyn had to work. It was fun to go out to dinner at places the kids don't really enjoy, watched Avatar, and some projects around the house. We missed them though; the house was crazy-quiet during the day! And the cats were extra annoying without the kids to give them attention.
