We have the great freedom of living in the USA which has been given & protected for us by the men and women in the armed services who serve & protect our country (my brother included). We thank all of you for all that you do to protect our country & freedom and the Gardow Family made the most of the weekend celebration. From the cabin, to four wheeling, to baseball games, to fireworks, cookouts, and boating, the Gardow's were on the move all Weekend!!!
The NEED for SPEED!!!
Our kids love to go fast this weekend as we found out more than once. As you will see their hair blowing in the wind as we raced across the lake. The kids begged and begged to go faster and we were introduced to doing a "wheelie" in a boat. Something the kids repeatedly asked for there after.
Now THATS a WATER SLIDE!!!!
Have you ever seen something like this where one creative mind finds a great way to take ordinary slides and make one of the longest water slides for their kids. We got to try it out as Jon knows the owner and he told us stop on out- so we did.......
Mom and Dad tried it out too. Mom's picture is missing cus she was SO FAST that Dad didn't think to pick up the camera. What a slide, what a great idea!
Swimming at one of the beaches....
Swimming at one of the sandbars.........
Cookout and Fireworks at the Steinmetz house....
Who says Mom's never like to get dirty??
While up at the cabin Jon and I took a ride into town, while it was not muddy out, we still got VERY dirty. We had to take some pictures to capture the fun that Chuck and Mom had.
Now that is dirty!!!
Fireworks after the baseball game in Hayward.
Fourwheeling at the cabin for the kids as well.
Now I am not so sure how keen I was on the idea of the kids riding the four wheelers themselves, but was told I was being an over protective Mom and to let the kids grow up. Felt so much better though when Jon told me that he only taught them how to put it in LOW gear so the kids couldn't go very fast even if they wanted to. I guess I have to relax a little- just want to make sure they remain safe. :)
Now this one is from when the kids had just unloaded the trailer and were to drive it around to the corner of the cabin - helmets were a MUST at ALL times!!!
