For my Dad
60th birthday my mom wanted us all to go somewhere together as a family. It was decided we would celebrate early since Josh and I would be there in the summer. His birthday is in November. After much talk about where to go we finally turned to the newest in-law:

Alexa's family has a house on a lake in Delta. So the family all packed up and headed to Delta for the weekend. My dad didn't know we were all going to be there and a big family vacay hasn't happened since I was 16. Big thanks to Cody and Alexa (and Alexas family) for making it all happen!

We even had cake. Everybody was so worried that my Dad had figured it out, and my Mother in law even slipped right as they were on their way out of town wishing my dad a happy birthday. My dad just looked at us all and said "why would I think you guys were throwing me a surprise birthday in July?" Good point!

You wouldn't have guessed this old man was 60 out on that wave runner! He loved that thing, and check out that hair!

The kids played in the rocky beach. Hope loved to throw the rocks in the water!

We went on the tube. This was "the slow mild ride" Hope was a little hesitant but than loved it. The same thing with the wave runners. She would just giggle and say "bump, bump, bump." She didn't want to get off the wave runners. Brie on the other hand is still a little traumatized and wouldn't even get on the boat. She said the water wasn't safe.

We ate lots of yummy food including Cake!


The kids loved playing with all their cousins. They were all so cute together too!

We lounged in the hammock. The one my brother Shane didn't break, causing him to fall right on his back!;-)

By the last night we were all so tired the kids all just kind of hung out together.

All of the girls minus Jenn who was at the urgent care. That was the one downfall to the trip. While playing volleyball Scott broke his foot and is still recovering.
We all had a great time, and it was definitely some much needed family time!
