Long 4th of July Wekend

It was a rare 5 day weekend with almost the entire Elenbaas clan at the cottage for the 4th.  We survived the heat and enjoyed a lot of time in the water and boat.

William and Jack LOVED the boat.  At the sound of the word, they'd both start repeating it and getting mad if we didn't go for a ride.

 

Jack is a wild boy.  He ran full speed into the water about 1,000 times.  He loved jumping off the raft with me; laughing the whole time, even as we hit the water hard.  

William didn't want to miss out on the excitement.  He was more nervous (normal of course) but had fun.

 

 

Family jump!

 

Evelyn is a little fish.  She swims well on her own and jumps off the raft with gusto.  Sadly, she swam so much she has her first case of "swimmers ear."

 

William has a happy grin on his face every second on the boat.

Jack can't keep up with William's boat enthusiasm.
