4th of July fun!

Gabe and I headed to the Okoboji on the Wednesday night before the 4th for a nice long weekend as a family! This was our only sort of vacation this summer so we were soaking up family time and loving every minute of it!  There are huge flea markets over the 4th so we made sure to check all 3 out while we were up there! We even managed to seek out some great finds!  We boated, went mini golfing, hit up the candy store in the emporium, ate at our favorite place on the lake, Bracco, visited Arnold's park and enjoyed our favorite frozen yogurt joint, Bon Bon's.  It was a very relaxing weekend and the boys had a lot of fun! Carson really worked on his casting skills and is ready to reel in his big catch next time! The boys also love golf cart rides around the cabin area so we went on plenty of those as well!    Here are just a few pictures I snapped over the 4th! Enjoy!

Boat time!

Decided they needed their life jackets on before even leaving the cabin! Whatever works!
Carson was brave and jumped in to Gabe- just didn't want too far from the boat!

Kellen wasn't sure what to think of the water! 

Family time on the boat
Grandpa and Grandma came on Sunday so we stayed to enjoy some boat time with them!

Carson decided he needed to just rest like Gabe was! So cute how he wants to be just like him! 
chillin!


Kellen had to get his turn in the captain's chair too!
It was a very wonderful and blessed weekend!
