A new park can kill hours…even with mosquitos feasting on our kids’ legs. For thousands of years, kids have loved the thrill of catching fish. The Hergenrader kids are no exception. Kids who don’t know about DisneyWorld believe tubing is the pinnacle of childhood fun. 100-degree days = indoors for Nate…but he still will be jolly about watching Mommy through the window. If it’s too hot outside…the iPhone will monopolize the kids for hours. I’m not proud of this. Sam’s utopia = boat driving. Nate loves his daddy to hold him. Even when his two older cousins (in matching shirts) are willing to do it. Hungry four-year-olds don’t care about bacteria-infested, undercooked hot dogs. Or getting the meat at all close to the flames. Don’t test Ellie’s iron will. She REFUSES to wear her life jacket. In this picture she’s as close as she can get to canoeing without actually putting on the (strait) jacket required to get in the boat. Cousin Memories are best on a duck boat…singing Rubber Ducky…dressed like ducks.
