Crystal Lake Beach and Our Trip to Indy

On Monday 7/13/09 the girls and I went to the Crystal Lake beach and met some of mommy's former co-workers and friends from St. James there with their kids! The girls had a LOT of fun playing in the sand and in the water (which was a bit cold)!! We had a yummy picnic lunch and enjoyed playing with our friends! Here are some pictures from the beach:


Kaylynn was cold!



Loren really loved to play in the sand!!



This picture, you can see Kaylynn in the purple suit in front, and Loren had swam out to the pier in the back and could jump off it! I didn't get the camera out in time, but you can see her coming back wearing the pink goggles!! I can't believe how well she swims now!!



In the water! Loren, coming back from jumping off the pier again!



Burying Loren in the sand!!





Kaylynn is all sandy, which she did NOT like! She doesn't like to be messy!!

On Tuesday 7/14/09 the girls and I took a road trip to visit Amy and Chris!! It took us about 5 hours to get down there (plus a stop at a McD's on the way)!! Tuesday we went to Amy's neighborhood pool for a while then went out to dinner at Fazolli's and had Dairy Queen for dessert! Yummy!! Wednesday it rained, so we went to Monkey Joe's (a jump house)! It was SO cool!! I wanted to jump sooo badly!! The kids had a blast there!!!! Then we went home for some "quiet time" and went to Moe's (a Mexican restaurant) for dinner!! Thursday we again went to Amy's neighborhood pool! The girls' lack of sleep was finally catching up with them, so we didn't stay at the pool long! We went back to Amy's for some good "quiet time", then had a yummy dinner at their house. After that we went to the park and back to Amy's for a movie night. Friday we drove home, which was a veeery long drive (6 hours)! But all in all it was a good trip!!!! Here are a couple pictures:



Loren climbing up to go down a big slide!


Kaylynn also climbing up! She looked so little climbing up there!



Weeeeee!!!! Who had more fun...Kaylynn or Amy?!?



The girls on a dinosaur!!



Kaylynn, so cute on a snail!



Guster pulling Loren around in his pool!!! This was soo funny to watch!!!



Kaylynn didn't know what to think of Guster with the pool, so she chilled by Amy!



Sprinkler fun!!!



So much fun at Amy's house!!



After throwing a huge fit, Loren finally passed out like a cat in the sun!!
