Even with all of the entertainment opportunities here it was tough to keep the kids occupied and on schedule by myself all week. So we tried some new stuff.
Yesterday we checked out a new beach at the state park. It is on a shallow bay and the kids could walk out really far by themselves without being in water that was too deep. They walked around and checked out the boats that were moored there.
There was even a little island that they could walk out to and explore. It is fairly remote and we got to spend the morning there all by ourselves which was great because all three of my big kids had to poop as soon as we got there. So
I had to whip out the travel potty and dump it in the woods three times which I love to do especially when we had only left home 15 minutes ago!
I also packed up the kids bikes in the red truck a few times and drove over to a nearby church that has a huge paved parking lot so that the kids could practice bike riding without me having to yell "Car! Move over!" thousands of times. They really enjoyed that and I brought along a book and lounged!
Today Grandma and Grandpa came back up and they brought my sister and her kids along as well! It was fun watching all of the cousins run all over the place together and have a blast! Tomorrow's agenda includes raspberry picking and some beach time!

Appleton, Wisconsin? Now I have no hope of getting together with you. Don't you know that John was only to look in Columbus, Ohio for a job. Thanks a lot John
