We went to Page Lake for the third year in a row. We stayed in the same place as last year, which made it sort of like coming home. The kids were dying to have smores the first night, but we were in no way prepared to make a fire right away so I roasted marshmallows on the stove.
The minute Joe walked in the door of the lake house, his talking took off. He got really good at saying "cheese" so we took lots of pictures of him doing just that.
The kids and Doug out on the first evening.
Joe threw a fit that he wasn't on that boat, so Doug took him out too. We thought he'd hate the vest, but he loved it!
Nick and Elizabeth came for an overnight visit and our friends in PA joined us for the day as well. Here are all our littlest ones together.
We celebrated Jack's 5th Birthday!
The kids played hard and had so much fun together!
The boys even rode the raft this year!
The first rainy day we headed up to Binghamton. Great Grandpa is always a hit with Joe!
Back at the lake, the theme for the rest of the week was COLD! Notice all the blankets and sweatshirts. It's usually cold in the evening, but this year two days were so cold we couldn't take our jackets off. But we still managed to have fun. Thank goodness for Uncle Randy and Aunt Mary and their fun kids. We had the best time! Joe maybe had the best time of all. He loved being around all those big kids all the time and had a real fondness for Jake. We were afraid he might be a disaster all week, but he was so easy going and happy just wandering around all the time.
