Picture Overload!

We have been pretty busy over the last couple of weekends so you get a picture overload in this post!

We tried another new park in Sun Prairie! I think this one will become a new favorite for us. Sam and I both really liked the structures, and they had some different stuff.

Swings are always a hit with us!

Last Sunday afternoon, we got to go to Sophie's 4th birthday party! Can't believe Sophie is 4, it seems like I was just calling her "baby Sophie".

Sam LOVED her tractor with wagon. We had a couple meltdowns when he was made to share it with other kids. We have decided that Sam will be a Construction Contractor or some kind of supervisor where he gets to direct people with heavy machines...then he can drive them too but still be the BOSS.

I got to try a slip n slide for the first time! Sam was totally uninterested since he was occupied with the tractor. I was a bit hesitant in trying it out completely, but I was starting to get the hang of it after several runs at it.

Love this conference...Natalie was asking nicely to ride the tractor and Sam was probably saying no. He is getting better at sharing, but this tractor was too much for him! Mommy made him get off so Natalie could have a turn :)

Last Friday we went to the beach with Mommy and Grandma Rikli. We had so much fun. Sam was pretty content to stay near the water's edge while I went out pretty far with Grandma.

It was a beautiful night!

Very happy to be in the water...

Sam loves the sound the rocks make when they fall in the water. He was making that sound here...

Saturday, we made our annual trip to Mt. Olympus but sadly without Uncle Jay and Aunt Amanda this year. It was a chilly lower seventies for the temp, but surprisingly that didn't bother me or Sam!

The indoor waterpark was nice and warm.

Lazy river time!

I got very comfy as you can see!

The outside water was COLD! Sam didn't seem to like the slides outside that much, but he was happy to just play in the water.

I loved the 2 slides in this picture. I went down them probably about 20 times. No one needed to catch me this year!

But...our favorite was the wave pool...Poseidon's Rage. Sam and I would stand in front of Mommy or Daddy and hang on and let the wave crash and move us. We both really, really liked it :)

Sunday, we decided to have a picnic with Grandma Rikli since it was such a nice day and Daddy and Grandpa Rikli were in the woods.

We went back to our picnic park in Marshall...

We also went to a new park in Lake Mills that is way on top of a hill. Mommy tried to get a picture of us with Grandma...yeah, neither of us were cooperating with that!

Beautiful view of the lake...we could see the beach we go to across the water.

Summer is going too fast, and we're having a lot of fun! Mommy better start getting creative with what we are going to do when it gets cold again because we are going to be bored :)
