An Island Park Weekend

We were only able to make it Island Park once during 2016, but lucky for us we were able to do a bit of double dipping between our two wonderful families since both sides were visiting.

Hansen Family Highlights:

- The girls taking over Spike Ball and playing half-heartedly for an hour just to get some time without kids.  Then deciding we should just run away and jumping into Joan's already packed car and driving around laughing our heads off even though no one at camp thought we were funny at all.

- Ivy having to borrow Lucy and Tytan's shoes for the weekend because somehow we ended up without any that really fit her.  (Maybe I have too many children?)

- Celebrating Papa Paul's birthday with party hats and birthday cake.

- The food.  Obviously.

Palmer Family Highlights:

- Spending our first night sleeping four adults, a six-year-old, a four-year-old, a 21-month-old, an 11-month0old, and two 3-month-olds in a trailer.  It could have been worse, but you can imagine how that went.

- Ryan getting to do some fishing and me ending up with a picture of my cute husband doing what he loves.

- Hammock time with grandma, which usually includes some stories, songs and probably a few treats.

- Getting to introduce two of our cousins to one of our very favorite places!
