After kayaking

B's first train ride

and first time driving

kayaking

A family that plays together, stays together. With the house construction, the DamFam hasn't played together enough this summer so this past sunday we took some time out to go for a nice kayak ride to feed the greenheads.

Marcy isn't as talented as I am at taking pictures over her head. Unless she was trying to identify her life jacket manufacturer.

Better shot.

Brynna takes the reins. after a bit she was pretty good at keeping the proper rowing cadence.

Long time no post

A couple of weeks ago, the whole DamFam headed to Funtown/Splashtown for some water park fun. We wisely decided to go on a Monday since nobody ever goes to water parks on Monday's. Unfortunately, we forgot that we've had roughly 86 straight weeks of rain so everyone in the tri-state area seemed to have the idea and the place was MOBBED! Oh well, B is still too young for most of the slides anyway so we spent a bunch of time in the kiddie pools instead.

B is afraid of putting her face under water but she tries to make up for it by putting water on her face. Someday she'll get there...

This could take a while.

Over the weekend the DamFam headed to Almost Canadia (Presque Isle) for some camping and bike related antics. We were joined by my buddy Kevin and his daughter (who is B's age). The girls had a blast riding bikes (Brynna did this for almost 10 hours over the two days), running around, swimming, shooting their first guns (you heard that right) and other general nonsense. There are far too many pictures for one post so I'll be dishing them out in helpings.

Running.

Running some more.

Saddled up for some biking.
