Family Cottage Time

We just returned from our week at a cottage with the Perkins family. It is a fun yet sometimes exhausting time. It's fun in that we get to see most of the family for an extended time and the kids get to do some things that they don't usually get to do (stay up until they crash, etc.). Just keeping track of my own brood is exhausting so when you add in 6 or 7 more people it just gets interesting. We ended up being away from home for about 10 days with the long 4th of July weekend in there so Alexis really was beginning to think that we had moved to Newaygo and was not all that pleased to hear that we were going home. Me on the other hand was ready to sleep in my own bed and shower at home for a few days.
Here are a few pics from our week. Don't have too many since I would constantly forget to get my camera out. I need to work on that more. Hope everyone else had a great 4th of July holiday too!

How fun Traci!!
That's funny about Alexis thinking you guys moved :) Kids just don't realize, eh?

My 4th was back in NY like usual only this time it was a bit boring as there was no one but me for Sat/Sun. Oh well...quality time w/ the 'rents, right!

Miss you!!
