A Fon-say Weekend at the Lake

Pronounced just like Iggy Azalea does in her song 'Fancy' :)

Truth be told, this weekend {almost 2 weeks ago now} was far from fancy, but we kept saying it all weekend anyways.  It was a typical lake weekend except we had Adam's cousin, husband, & two adorable children staying with us.  {not pictured below, fishing, family potluck, & sparklers} We filled the weekend with fun stuff like...

Paddleboarding...




Feeding the goats...

Catching turtles...

Playing with friends & cousins...



Canoeing...


Swinging...



Taking ranger rides...

Taking Naps...

Taking family photos...

Sorry Aliya, self-timer cut you off! :)






These photos were taken at a park in Ankeny.  We enjoyed a quick pizza picnic at the park before they headed to Legoland in Kansas City and we headed home to a very locked house! :)

This & That {v.29}


So incredibly overwhelmed right now.  I pretty much don't even remember when blogging is since I'm lucky to post twice a week right night.  Hello new student season at my real job & outdoor photoshoot season at my photography business...
-----------------
Did this:
Posted Iowa State Fair {mini} sessions
Took the kids to a follow up at the ENT {back in 2 months for J & 6 months for C, if not before.  Cullyn lost his right tube and had uninfected fluid in his left ear.  Jordyn lost her right tube or it is clogged.  She also has fluid in her left ear.  Talk of removing her tonsils & adenoids in the future}
Took Cullyn to his 15 month well check {2 shots, 10th% for weight & 11% for height}
Took Jordyn to Art Class at the library
Went to the park with the kids
Spent the weekend at the lake 
Photographed baby Jade {3 months}
Went Paddleboarding for the first time. 
Hosted Adam's cousin, husband, & two adorable children from Oklahoma at the lake! :)
Ate pizza from the pizza box lid at the park
Broke into our house after being locked out for 2 hours on Sunday night. :
