First off, my brothers were home for a visit and it sure was wonderful having them home. We celebrated our Great Uncle Urban's 90th birthday on July 17th and both Mike and Ryan decided to come home for it. We even managed to sneak in the family pictures that we've been trying to take for a year. Jake and Ben enjoyed having them home too, they had lots of water time with them and cousin Gabe. Whenever they are home it makes me wish that they both lived closer!

Cousin Gabe, being himself. I didn't get a picture of the fish. He was using the landing net, telling me a fish might swim in it. Of course, I was telling him that would never happen. He threw the net onto the dock and guess what jumped out. A fish! Guess aunts are wrong sometimes.
Uncle Mike giving Jake a motorcycle ride. They are awesome, he used to give them to me when I was a kid.
Ben getting his ride. It took him a bit to warm up, but after that it was all giggles.
Uncle Mike and Ben giving Jake a ride. That's how Jake likes it.
Uncle Ry, Gabe and Jake. Out fishing I guess.
This was Jake's idea (he's full of them!). Hook up a rope behind the paddleboat and pull 'tubers'.
Great Uncle Urban, or to my kids, Great Great Uncle Urban. This is my favorite picture, notice how he's sitting in his chair? Did I mention he's 90?
We had some threatening weather while we were at the birthday party. It rained and hailed a bit but everything was fine. Not everyone nearby was as lucky.
