Okoboji Trip August 2014

We had such a fun last minute, quick trip  to enjoy a few days at the lake before summer is over!! Can you believe its almost September?!?! Summer always seem to take forever to get here but then flies by faster than anyone could want. I will say I am looking forward to Fall and all its fun! 

I actually brought my big camera so these are the pictures I caught on that. 

His favorite ride 

It is almost impossible to get a picture where they are both looking at me while at Arnold Park. I don't blame them there is a lot to look at! 

Freddy the Fish

Boat Rides

Broc was so patient watching John ride the rides

John rode on the carousel all by himself! We (him and I) were both a little nervous but he did great 

saying "good morning" to the lake

wearing our new sweatshirts 




Covering Broc's fish! 


tried to get a few shots outside one morning 

Even on the cloudy days its fun being there


These two are going to have so much fun together 



John insisted on taking a picture of mommy and Broc 

A boat ride on the last morning there 

John just studies Grandpa, its adorable 


These two melt my heart 


Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for having us! We love you so much! 



These are the pictures from my cell phone :) 
On our way! The boys did soo good both ways. They both slept majority of the way, thanks so much for being such great travelers 

GG was at the lake a few days before we were and she left a special surprise for the boys.
A book about Okoboji and candy from the sugar shack! 



Taking pictures of Brother! 

Watching brother ride the rides

He loved the roller coaster this time! It took a few times and he was super scared but I didn't push him and eventually he got on! Way to face your fears buddy :)

Oh you know just riding on the train with my boys 


Love their little faces! 

Handsome boy! 


Morning snuggles with my boys.

watching the boats from the deck

Broc's first boat ride!! I was a bit hesitant but we managed and survived! 

Driving Grandpa's boat! 





Dinner on the Deck

A new puzzle! 

John loved swimming this time! I am really surprised how well he did 

Relaxing before bedtime watching spiderman

Grandma Carol taught him this new smile 

Busy boy just playing with the stroller! Next year he will be riding all the rides with John! Crazy to think about! 

the last train ride of the 2014 season! 

We got one last thing of ice cream before heading home! 

saying to goodbye to the lake! 


Goodbye Okoboji! Until next year, thanks for a summer of memories with my boys!!
