Summer fun: August edition

Summer goes by so fast!  We are in our last month and wanted to make sure we had LOTS of fun, as well as check off our summer fun list.  In august, we started with a week of golf camp which to your delight is half a day.  In addition, they have plenty of cold treats to pick from after camp ends!  

Then, you had a super awesome birthday party with Cam.  The four boys and Cam's dad went fishing, tubing and doing adventurous stuff on Lake Minnetonka.  Cam caught a huge muskie while spearfishing.  It was the most amazing time and best. party. ever.

We then followed that up by going fishing as a family.  Since mama and baba aren't the best, we had a professional guide help us catch some big walleye! One was a four pounder.  

Summer started to come to an end so we squeezed in a sleepover with Andrew, playdate with Andrew and Ethan and a CRUISE.  We went on the newest ship - Wish and had a blast.  The aquamouse was one of your favorites.

We arrive on Monday and immediately had lunch and went straight to the pool for aquamouse and pool time.  Then, we relaxed and went to dinner at Arendelle's, more pool and room service at midnight.

On Tuesday, we arrived in the Bahamas and took an adventure on Blackbeard's pirate ship.  You and your brother also did the Incredibles course a few times.  Then it was more pool and dinner at 1923.  In the evening we did non-stop aquamouse fireworks, popcorn and room service

Wednesday was Castaway Cay and it was a bit windy.  The banana boat, aquatrike and sting ray was cancelled.  You and your brother floated out a bit too far but you got back safely.  Lunch on the island and then more aquamouse and pool.  Dinner of pizza followed by more pool, aquamouse and room service.

Thursday was our last full day.  You and I woke up and watched zootopia on funnelvision and then went to the edge, followed by pool and aquamouse.  After lunch, we had ice cream and sweets at Inside Out.  Some more pool time followed by dinner at Marvel.  A last dip in the pool, room service at night!!

And dont forget... multiple baths daily :)

Beni, I love you so much and you are now officially a tween. You like to hang out in your room, play on your phone and be by yourself.  You are also sitting in the front seat in the car now.  On 8/22, you decided to try and sleep in your own room by yourself.  By labor day, you slept thru the night and have been in your room since.  So proud of you but also a little sad for mama and baba. 

You are so loved and a wonderful big brother and son!!
