Climbing fun on the haystacks...
Krista came to join us for some fun. Here she is taking a tractor/trailer ride out to the apple picking trees. Kate had to hold on to her tight so they didn't fly off the corner!
Mike made sure Bryn stayed put on the ride.
Jack, picking a LOT of apples.
Bryn's first apple picking.
Bryn was also in charge of the "bag" of apples.
My favorite...the butt shot:)
Action shot of Jack (he's in the red). It was amazing how much he improved as the season went on. He even scored a couple of goals in the last few games!
This is what he looked like a lot in the early part of the season.
Kate also had a great season. One game with a couple of bloody noses (yes, in the same game), but she recovered and only flinched a little for the rest of the season! Here she is, ready for anything.
Action shot during practice...
Kate and jack after a turn on the "Dizzy Dragons."
It took some convincing, but Jack finally talked Kate in the ferris wheel. She's not such a fan of heights.
I had to take the first "high" ride with Kate to remind her that she really can do it on her own and that she really likes it. She's looking a little nervous here, but it got better:)
No carnival is complete without the motorcycles...Kate and Jack had unlimited ride wrist bands so they went on each ride at least twice, then hit their favorites again!
Last night he finished his homework for the first day. I meant to turn this before I posted it, but forgot. Basically, it says, he likes to play legos and magnets, is not afraid of anything, riding a two wheeler worries him, and he is going to be an engineer when he grows up (and a soccer coach, but that took too long to write so he skipped that part)
Deep thoughts....I believe this was...are you sure you aren't afraid of anything?
Breakfast of champions...Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch.
Even had a little time for some cartoons before leaving for the bus.
After Jack was on the bus, Bryn and I drove to school for the "boo hoo" party they throw at school for the Kindergarten parents. We waited and waited for Jack to come in to the school. Kate came, but no Jack (This, after she insisted she would need to help Jack to his teacher before she went up to her own classroom). He was one of the last to enter, but he made it. He gave me a wave, and he was off...hope his day is great! I can't wait to hear all about it:)
Well, Kate made if off to 3rd grade without any problems. I had to work last night, so I picked her up this morning just in time to get her to the first bus ride of the year. I hope she is always this excited about the first day of school!
Jack is working on getting rid of those training wheels! He did pretty well, but took a spill at the end. I know I shouldn't laugh when he falls, but to watch Mike fly over the bike and roll in to the grass was quite a site. Jack did not care for my reaction. He came away with a few scrapes, but overall, not too bad. 
Here are the three of them before take off...
We have also enjoyed a couple of nights out on Lake Minnetonka, close to home. Bryn is taking a turn at driving neighbor Jim's boat. Kate took a turn as well...and we drove in a circle. It will be a while before she is getting her license!
Here are the 3 of them checking out the view as we drove back in to the dock after some jumping off in the middle of the lake.
Even Bryn liked to jump in. She would jump in, say "done", then "towel." She knows the routine!
A little shot of the girl as she gets bigger and bigger.
Baby, puppy. Her true loves.
Lake side family photo. It only took seven shots to get us all to look. Thanks, Rachel!
Three's company, very good company.
Bryn has finally decided to wear shoes this summer. She started at the babysitter who said she has to wear them outside. So, she wears them even with her pjs.
Nice comb over baby.
Time for another dip.
Grandma and Grandpa Vosberg have been so generous this summer to let us relax at the "small cabin". Thanks!!
It only took her once to become a jet ski addict.
Otter Days! A picture on the giant Otter.
Cute.
Jack quickly learned how to crank up the jet ski. He is a pro.
More to come!
