Berries

Strawberries and blackberries from the garden ... Yum!

Baby boat

Papa Rob bought this inflatable boat to go tubing down the river this summer. One day we were at the river and he discovered that it also works great as a water playpen! Hunter puts everything into his mouth and was constantly trying to eat the river rocks. When he's in the boat, he's safe and happy. Thanks to Papa Rob!

Diving

Heather and Brad invited us to swim at Brad's house today. After watching auntie Heather dive in, Grady spent quite a bit of time trying to replicate her dive. It was pretty funny because he mostly ended up doing belly flops!

Sand castles

Today we went to go see the sand castles that are built for a big sand castle competition in Parksville.

We took this picture for Papa Dave. It's a bag piper. 

Tennis

Grady is in a little tennis camp this week. He's really enjoying it and comes off the court looking very sweaty!

Hot weather, hot fishing

We are home from a gorgeous long weekend at the cabin. The weather was beautiful and the fishing was great. We were lucky enough to have lots of guests come out to visit us, which made our trip even more fun.

Grady ~ totally pumped after reeling in a 26 lber!

Our first morning's catch: 26, 20, 14 lbs.
