Fourth of July Weekend...warning LOTS of pics

The Kane family headed "up north" to West Bend Wisconsin to spend the 4th of July weekend with Sean's brother Casey and his wife Kari. Due to a scheduling error.....Sean actually had the 4th and the following weekend off so he was able to join us. Meme and Grandad as well as the Millers (Shannon, Steve, Kane and Cole) arrived at "Rock's" on Wednesday.
On the 4th there was a little beer....multiple brands to be exact....
Yummy dip and Dave's Brats (the best)
lots of chitchat...in the shade, it was WARM in the sun

fun times frolicking
a little pool time, we're not sure what Finley is doing in this picture...
"Cole-y"
"Lee"
"Kane-er" (zoom on this if you can and notice all the water drips on him....)
smores while waiting for fireworks. You could see the city's fireworks from Rock's backyard so we took advantage of THAT!!

The Miller's waiting.....
more waiting......go DAVE
still more waiting....
and then it began.

this is how the dogs spent most of the time. They definately weren't used to 10 extra people in their house....

A little ds time on Saturday
Saturday evening, the Big Boys went to a Milwaukee Brewer game. We went to the movies!!
Shannon, Kari and I went to Kit Kittredge, GREAT movie!!

Meme was a trooper and took the 4 kids, alone, to Kung Fu Panda...it was Kanes 4th time seeing it and Braden's and Cole's 3rd.......
Our movie was across the hall and started 5 minutes later so it was perfect!!


Saturday during the day we went to an indoor arcade/playground/putputt and paintball. We did it all but the paintball. Have you ever did the Dance Dance Revolution?? Shannon and I did the "beginner" stage and we were sweating. Steve went up against his wife and my hubby went up against me. I so wish someone had caught Sean doing this....Im sure it was a picture worth taking. Thanks big guy for amusing me and doing it!!
The play structure had 6 slides, 2 rock walls, ladders, tireswings, monkey bars....FUN!!







By the end of the day Cole was doing this by himself and was SHOOTING out the slide....
she closed her eyes EVERY time...notice Cole is helping catch her
must be a family trait
still in the family



and then there was putputt.....enough said




clearly was a "nature" course....no the bear was not real



So THANK YOU to Rock and Kari for a fun filled 2 days. We left Sunday after breakfast, so we packed a lot into the time we were there!!

Casey and I would LOVE to make the 4th a WI tradition ... as far as we're concerned we could have done nothing all weekend and it still would have been a blast! It doesn't get much better than seeing fireworks from the backyard. The weather was PERFECT and must have known you left town ... it rained ALL day Monday. We were glad to have you and will see you in a couple weeks! Kari :)
