Labor Day in Rochester!

The Thursday before Labor Day we headed up to Rochester to visit Keith's family for a long weekend!  Reagan (and Landon!!) were SOO excited to see their cousins and PLAY!



Friday morning Keith and I had dentist appointments at the family dentist they grew up going to, who is also a very close family friend.  Keith got off easy with just a cleaning, while I had a bit more work to get done...so while I was being drilled, Kristin, Keith, and the kiddos went to the cemetery where their mom is buried.  All of the kids stood at their Oma's grave...I wish I could have been there.  They all kissed their hand and placed it on the stone too...I KNOW she was was smiling down on them at that moment, with all of her grandchildren there!


Later that afternoon my little man perfected the art of RIDING A BIKE!  He was cruising around the driveway...getting him off of the bike was NOT an easy task :)  Looks like Santa might need to bring a bike this year!


Saturday morning we went to Miss Liz's barn to see her horse.  She let the kids sit on him and then saddled him up so everyone could have a little ride.  Reagan LOVED it, Landon loved seeing the horse, but was NOT a fan of sitting on him!



Yes...even I got in on the fun :)

That afternoon Keith's aunt had a party that we went to, but after that we parked at Honeoye Falls and walked up to Dipper Dan's for ice cream.  What a cute town and the old houses are SOO cool, all dating back from the early 1800's!

The Kepplinger Crew!

Sunday we went to Lake Canandaigua to visit some friends that have a lake house there.  We had a BLAST!  The wife, Susan, is one of the women my mom and John met in Aruba that decided Keith and I needed to meet and pretty much arranged our first date poolside!!

Ready for a boat ride!

Landon, Max, Reagan, and Macie
(Max was born the day Keith and I got engaged...March 29, 2006!)

LOVING the boat!!

This guy loved it too!

 
Mr. Greg is such a great guy...Reagan was cruising around the lake...

...then Landon man took the wheel!

Reagan decided she wanted to go on the jet ski and jump on the trampoline, but this momma didn't bring a swimsuit, so she borrowed one of Macie's bikinis!!  This was big for Reags because she has NEVER wanted to show her tummy before.  She was so self conscious at first, but then LOVED having a bikini on and decided she wanted all bikinis next summer :)

This girl LOVED the water...they were flying on the jet ski, bouncing over waves and she LOVED it!  I was actually a little jealous that I didn't have my suit :)

Jumping with Max on the trampoline

This guy was happy as could be pushing the lawn mower around :)


Finishing up the day with a nice bath!

Kristin and Tom had a party on Sunday night and then we left Monday morning.  We had such a great visit!  It was so fun and the kids loved being with their cousins :)  We can't wait to go back again soon!
