The McWebsky Annual Summer Extravaganza

Each summer, we go with our precious friends from Elkhorn, the Webster and Glogovsky familes, to a Wisconsin lakefront destination. This year, we had EXQUISITE accomodations at Lake Wisconsin Resort (not). But it doesn't matter much when you have such great company!

Hanging out at the beach. Did a lot of this
The kids playing pick-up games. Did a lot of this too. I loved watching them!

A trip on the Merrimac ferry to get ice-cream on the other side


Of course, how could a summer vaca NOT include some biking by our boys? Ted LOVES to figure out all sorts of different routes, and Kevin and Darrenn are good friends and do whatever Ted has planned. Ted loves hills. Most people don't. What troopers!

We were very close to my Dad's, so Captain Bill took us out on a lake tour. Thanks, Dad!

The well-behaved angels. When we started this, Dawn and I were pregnant with the babes and the oldest (Emma) was Kaleb's age.

WE LOVE YOU GUYS! Thanks for another GREAT weekend.

Golfing Protege'

The boys have taken up golf this summer. Thank goodness they've got some pros to help them out...

LAMBEAU!! Yea baby.....

It's Mr. Rodger's neighborhood! This was a healing process for me. I saw that yes, the Packers are going to be ok. What a blast we had, in a fancy-smancy box no less! The 45 minute wait to get out of Lambeau after the game, and getting home at 2:00 this morning was TOTALLY worth it. GO PACK GO!

Before the game
Ted, in the box, eating and visiting, which is what he did for the whole first quarter.

Aaron Rodger's first play...

Waiting for my husband to join me to watch the game!

#4

I'm not ashamed to say it. I'm in mourning AGAIN. Only this time, it's worse. He's not retired. He's playing for ANOTHER team. I cannot imagine what Green Bay management was thinking. Ok, so he changed his mind a few times. He has the right. He's Brett Favre FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!! Did they forget he had one of his best seasons LAST YEAR??

Guess where Ted and I get to go on Monday night? A BOX AT LAMBEAU!! Their first preseason game. I WILL cheer for Rodgers, but oh how I wish it were #4....

Lazy Days of Summer

We've been doin' little bits of LOTS! Love summer!

Anna's t-ball

Gardening...

Golf lessons....

And who can resist a sweet lemonade stand, manned by many of the 'hood kids. After profits were split for the cost of the product, marketing, advertising, and labor, I think they each made $.87

Camp Okoboji

We've just returned from an exceptional family experience--a family Christian camp in Iowa. We're already booked to go back to OKOBOJI next year!


Here we are in the car, about ready to go. Poor Baxter thought he should go with. But he got special one-on-one time with Grammy (thanks, Gram!)


One of my favorite parts of each day was family devotionals. A special shout out to our FANTASTIC counselor, Grant! We miss you!
Enjoying our barbeque lunch at the beach with another fav counselor, Melissa
And free time at the lake

There was a camper talent show, where the boys participated in a skit about superheros. Kaleb not only played Captain Underpants, he WAS Captain Underpants. Will was Superman, and Anna was a back-up singer in a high school musical song.

On the last day, familes from the Mt that we went with. (There were a total of 42 families there, seven from our town). Thanks for the invite! One of the best family times of our lives!

Happy 4th!

Hope you are enjoying a GREAT Holiday weekend. We are! It struck me this year how God has blessed this great nation for soooo long. "Blessed is the Nation whose God is the LORD." Ps. 33:12. Take some time to reflect on that!

Here is the sweetest 4th Parade you've ever seen! Hundreds of kids on their bikes and scooters, going around downtown. Anna and Kaleb are below the red ballon. (And Payton and Zoe)
Then we headed up to Grampy's lake for a beautiful day and fun time.

Aren't my peeps fantastic?
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
