Summer Continued

Well it has taken me a while to finish this post.  The pictures have been uploaded for some time, but I have been enjoying the summer with the girls to finish up the written section.

I have taken a lot of photos this summer.  I really enjoy nature photos and close ups.  Here are some of my floral photos taken while on vacation at Elim Lodge.

This is one of my favourite photos.  The lake front is so relaxing.  Sitting by the lake is one of my favourite things to do while vacationing.

Jaelyn and Ava having fun after their triathlon.

My brother-in-law, Mike, never fails to keep us entertained.  His family is working at Elim Lodge for the summer.  They are running the Snackery.  Mike was able to enjoy a day off by the pool.

Ava has been very determined this summer.  One of the things she wanted to do was drive Grandpa Roffel's golf cart.

Jaelyn was quite the fisher.  She loved getting the worms but wasn't too excited about taking the fish off the hook.  Aunt Linda said she could go fishing with her anytime.

This is the small bass that we, Jaelyn and I, caught that night of fishing.

The sunsets are always so beautiful.  Photos can't go justice.

We went to the rope again this year.  Ava loves the rope so much that she sometimes forgets to let go.  This makes everyone else very nervous.  Brian is always the crazy one.

"Don't forget to let go Ava"

Jaelyn and Ava puzzling in the trailer on a cool day.

Ava even practiced her piano while on vacation.  She is playing the neighbours toy piano.

The family took a trip to the Peterborough Zoo for an afternoon.  Here we saw all the animals and the girls were able to play in the park.

The girls loving each other and their new beach towel.  Love this photo and those kiddos.

This is Ava and Dave, from the kids program, on Christmas in July.  Jaelyn is being a little frog-like.  They are playing games and received a Christmas treat. 

The view from my chair by my parent's cottage.  So relaxing.

Jaelyn loves the water and the sand.  The wetter and dirtier the better.

The girls enjoyed playing in the park and meet some great friends.

Well that was  our family vacation.  I hope you enjoyed all the photos.
