KNMS Year FIVE!!

Our 5th year at Kee-Nee-Moo-Sha was another fun week.  I wouldn't classify it as a "Vacation" but more of a "Family Trip". "Vacations" are relaxing, "Family Trips" are not.  That being said we always have a great time with Jon, Terri, Lincoln, Jayna and Mom and Dad!

Joel had a blast tubing with his big brother and was all about "speed"!




Thumbs up means faster and thumbs down means slower.  Grant actually did a great job and got braver every time out.


The kids hunting the elusive dogfish that swam through the swimming area

Brotherly Love





Ice Cream Sundays for everyone!




Joel must have had a dozen homemade donuts at the campfire





Joel and Grant are becoming fish in the water just like their big brother.

Hunting for crayfish

Uncle Jon is his own waterpark ride






Atwater 4th of July

4th of July in Atwater is an annual tradition.  Highlights are always the parade and fireworks along with other fun things sprinkled in throughout the day.


Getting pulled behind grandpa's tractor and 4-wheel rides are always on the agenda.



Boating / tubing and the first annual cannon ball competition.  Lucky for the rest of us, Katie was a late scratch from the competition!






Joel's 6th 4th of July parade and he is still not excited about all the fire engine sirens.  Seriously they must run every emergency response vehicle in Kandiyohi County through this parade!


Getting TONS of candy at the parade and watching grandpa on the Let's Go Fishing float.


Swimming in Green Lake with the cousins


Fireworks at the beach in Spicer tops of the night!
