Lazy morning breakfasts with cousins. All the cousins enjoyed the mini cereal boxes that Gaga brought for them. My kids rarely get "Treat cereal" so they loved it. We also got to enjoy Papa's famous breakfast sandwtiches.
The outside yard was huge and hag a good size backyard. We bought a bunch of water balloons, water guns etc and the kids eyed them right away. Here is one early morning water fight right after breakfast. The kids wasted no time getting outside and getting wet.
Here they are being egged on by Papa! All the kids gave their best shot to get wet!
The girls sat out and watched the fun! These two.....
Papa and his grandchildern. What a fun Papa!
Our cabin was about a 5 minute walk to the beach! Here is the gang making their walk to the beach!
The beach meant one thing....play with uncle Andy. He always had a kid climbing on him!
Ella and her Grandparents.
The grandkids enjoying their independance.
Such fun times with the cousins. Growing up, a bulk of my memories involved being with my cousins in some body of water. I am so glad I can do the same for my kids./
This is how you shower in the summertime. Getting back from the beach, the 1st stop was this shower to wash off. The kids loved it too
One of the highlights of the trip was spending a afternoon out a boat. We rented a boat and went tubing for the afternoon. Brian was very excited to try tubing and Annie was excited to ride on the boat. Here is Brian with his boat hair.
It was fun bring on Boat Donahue. Annie liked to sit with Papa as the business of the boat went on and with her cousin Ella.
Brian LOVED tubing. He kept saying how it was one of the funnest things he was ever done. The boy could NOT get enough of it. He loved everything about it.... the water, the waves, the speed! LOVED it. He loved sharing this experience with his Dad.
Thumbs up! In boat language that means FASTER! Yeah, he kept wanted to go faster and faster.
Becky and Luca. Maddy would also go on the boat with only Uncle Andy. Make that all the cousins.
He could not resist jumping in the water canon ball style!
Wanting to surf!
Annie did really well tubing too!
Even cousin Jaxon got in on the fun! Brian and jaxon got all brave and stood up and pretended like they where surging.
After a long boat ride, Gag and Papa treated the whole gang to ice cream
Just cute Annie girl. That night was Hawaiian night! Here is out little hula girl all festive. It was a fun night. My Mom and I prepared a meal; Hawaiian haystacks in the crock pot before we left for boating and when we got back, dinner was done. We decorated with tiki torches and played Hawaiin music while everyone ate.
Dinner time!
For dessert we had Shaved Ice and it was a big hit with the kids!
Ending the night with games while the kids slept!
