Two-Wheelers & Ice Cream

On Tuesday, Scott already replaced the tire on Nicholas’ three month old bike. Nicholas flies down the driveway and slams on his brakes to make skid marks and the other day it just popped. Before Scott put the training wheels back on, we thought we would take him to the shop and try teaching him to ride his bike without them. I never in a million years thought he would get it that night let alone the very first time. Here is a video of his second attempt and as you can tell I was quite excited for him :)

And here are a few pictures of the kids at the ice cream store tonight



Fathers Day

This year we spent the day out at Holland State Park to visit Scott’s Dad and sisters who are camping there. I was so bummed because I forgot my camera. But I did manage to make up for the lack of pictures during the day when we went to the pool later that night.

Sylvia has no fear of the water so Scott and I have to constantly watch her.

That night was the first time Sylvia had her very own ice cream cone. I’m pretty sure she enjoyed every second of it!

Cottage

The beginning of June our family spent 2 weeks at the cottage. It wasn’t very warm during our time there, but we found plenty to keep us busy.

Nicholas caught his very first fish right off the dock with Alex’s fishing pole. He was so excited about it that we had to go and buy him his own pole so he could do it more the next day.
