A bit more of Summer

We truly have had a wonderful summer.  We have gotten to go and do quite a lot and for that I am truly thankful.  A couple of weeks ago we went golfing to Cheam for the first time.  Aidan loved every minute of it. Jaxon is still a bit small to enjoy the true game but he had fun tagging along and putting. I am pretty sure this daddy was quite thrilled to start sharing this love with his boys.

Aidan got golf clubs for Christmas this past year and this was the first time they were used on a course.  What fun it was to watch him focus and try hard to do it right. He doesn't like to receive any coaching really but when he did and when he realized he wasn't doing it right he would work hard to change his swing and he would then see the reward when doing it right.  Crazy kid is just like his momma that way....wants to do things on his own......doesn't like to asking for help ;)

This is to document that I was playing golf as well (since I am the one that always takes the pictures) along with my crazy sidekick.  He truly is our silly one. I have a feeling we are in for a crazy ride with him as he gets older and more silly. 

Here we are on the 18th hole!  We finished the whole course.  We weren't sure if the boys would last that long but they did awesome.  I am sure if we were able to keep going Aidan would have.....Jaxon was definitely done at that point.  He just wanted some well anticipated french fries.  I see a lot of golf trips in this families future. 

Another fun thing we were able to do this summer was head to Quesnel to visit Heather, Matt, Kai and Halle.  We went during Canada Day Long Weekend.  And for the first time ever....the weather was wonderful!  Seriously, every time we have gone in the summer it is cold and rainy. 

We went to a lake one morning and enjoy the water.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the water except for Kai.  For some reason he wasn't into it as much as everyone else.  He found his own fun on the beach.  The boys loved having this air mattress to float around on and then jump off of or at least Aidan loved jumping off of it......Jaxon not so much.

No matter how much I tried this little one would not smile for the camera. Very serious.  It was fun being with them and spending some good quality time with them. 

Matt and Heather's neighbors have a trampoline and have always let Kai come and jump so we were able to take advantage of this as well. I love these two of the boys because I was able to capture then in mid-air and Jaxon bouncing on his bum.  Kai was always on the tramp with the boys but he would get time to jump on his own.  He didn't really like jumping with both boys on. So they would take turns.

Unkie Matt took the boys (and Jamie) out fishing one morning.  They went to a lake that he guaranteed that they would catch some fish and catch they did.  The boys loved fishing out on the boat with Dad, Unkie and Kai.

This was Jaxon's fish.....he was all about touching it but Aidan not so much.  I love the expression on the boys faces along with Unkie's.  What a great memory that the boys have. 

The boys decided to have this fishing morning be a "just the guys" time.  They loved the fact that it was just the guys.  So cute.  So, I got to stay back at the house...have a second cup of a coffee and enjoy some time with Heather. Everyone won....I think ;)

Our last morning we went to a little water park in town.  The boys enjoyed trying to spray us all and trying not to get sprayed.

Jaxon was all about spraying others but didn't want to get wet himself. We had to break him of that since it didn't seem fair that he could just spray you and then you couldn't get him back...that is just not how it works in this house ;) All in all it was a great trip and fun to spend time with the Isaak's. Thanks so much for letting us come and enjoy time with your family.  We all had a wonderful time!
