Family Vacation, Part 4---Cottage time

Well, if I wait much longer to finish these vacation posts I won't even remember what was going when I took the pictures!  I really haven't posted any pictures yet of what we did when we were hanging out at the cottage, so here are a bunch of random pictures of our time at the cottage.

We really only had a couple of days when the weather was good for being on the beach and in the water.  The kids had a great time on those days!

Ready to jump....

...and in they go!!

It was also lots of fun to watch the fish swimming near the dock and to feed them stale bread.

Abby entertained us with some fireworks that produced smoke in different colors. We watched from the safety of the deck.

And of course we had a campfire and s'mores one night. 

Not all our fun was outdoors---here's a game of Crazy 8's.

And here's Evan catching up on his texting on Auntie Abby's phone.

Did you ever see a cuter pair of cousins?

This shot, or one like it, will probably show up on our Christmas card. :)

And that wraps up our week at Crystal Lake. I love looking at all these pictures--- they bring back so many good memories!
