fun on the fourth...

fun on the fourth 
(and a little extra fun thrown in for good measure...)
we just arrived back to "reality", which we like to call normal everyday life. We always look forward to our time up at the cabin on diamond lake with scott and lisa. We practically start planning for next year's fourth of july, while we are still on vacation!
Well, we had another memorable diamond lake vacation, and we have a "few" pictures that captured our fun below. Enjoy!
