Upstate

We spent last week in Upstate New York with Grandpa T and Nancy. It was a great visit! As you can see from these first pictures, Chris and Grandpa went fishing three different days. They caught lots of fish and Chris got really good at casting and working the line. 

And while the boys were fishing, Mommy found a board (actually an old windsurfing board) and made it into a paddle board. It was beautiful just paddling around the lake in the peace and quiet!

We also had a chance to fire a semi-real bow and arrow at a target that Grandpa T set up for us. 

Meanwhile, back at the house... Daddy pushed J on the swing... and pushed and pushed and pushed.

Of course Grandpa took out the accordion. There was lots of dancing! And Chris played one of his recital songs while Grandpa figured out the base chords...

And then of course, the boys enjoyed all the dogs tremendously! And the dogs enjoyed a few belly rubs...
