the camp gang

We were so excited to be able to meet up with some of our friends from our camp lifeguard days at Country Lake. There were three new babies for us to meet in person and lots of catching up to do with everyone. Thanks, Sherry, for letting us all invade your home with many wild kids, especially with a four week old baby and a husband recovering from a gunshot shot wound to take care of (in addition to your one year old!). You amaze me! It was so great to visit with everyone. Even Mark was able to catch up with the husbands for a bit before they all had to leave and return to work or other responsibilities. We had a great time and can't wait until our next visit:)

Trying to get the Speaks' boys and ours together. As you can see, everyone was not happy:) Jake and Finn are about two weeks apart, and Sam and Elliott are about six weeks apart.

Sam was happy to pose for a picture when he was all by himself:)

Isaac, Jake, Peter, and Finn

This is what happens when you try to get four rowdy boys to sit still and pose for a picture. Oh well. It was worth a shot!

We have four of the eight kiddos in this picture. Not too bad, huh?!
