The final cottage pictures

On our way out of the cottage on Saturday morning. Four generations at the cottage.
What William was doing when he was supposed to be sleeping...
Helloooo... is anybody out there?
Is anybody in here?

The Cottage Pt 6

The cutest little chimney sweep you ever did see! All rosey from playing outside with Gma and AB for the afternoon.
Trudging up the hill in a very wet outfit after being hosed off - with car in hand. can't let those cars out of his sight!
Grandma can you get the sand off my hands please??
Here is another rock for you Gma
These are AB's feet - they are funny looking...
Coming at you mom...look out!

Painting the rocks behind the cottage.
Can I share your giraffe GGpa? I can help you read!
Good bright and shining morning to you mom!
Strollin on the porch in the early morning - it really was this early. William did not believe in sleeping late while we were up at the cottage. I think this picture was taken about 6.
Reading to GGpa on a sunny morning
He gives a corn cob pipe a whole new meaning!!

Stopping for a water break
Waiting for GGpa to come out of the bathroom - William was GGpa's shadow
Everybody needs an extra set of grandparents - so we have adopted the Gunters senior for William. They had a great time playing during the cottage visit.

The Cottage Pt 2

Boats boats boats!!!
Sporting the pink hat that almost all of the DeHarte grandkids and great grandkids have worn at the cottage. There is a picture of mom bathing in the sink at the cottage wearing the same hat about 30 years ago.
Rub a dub dub, William is in the tub, or in this case, the kitchen sink!
Playing with Far Far at the cottage during their visit. Looking a little like christmas with all the toys the Fars brought for William to play with.
Alli, William's cousin, is playing to the left of him.
William relaxing on the yellow chaise sporting the same outfit he wore last year at the cottage - he is much bendier this year (and much more svelte!)
Sharing some orange cranberry pita with AB on a sunny morning. Mmm Mmm good

The Cottage pt 1

These pictures will be posted in reverse order - it is faster and easier and I am busy this week. Enjoy and have a great week!
Williams in pajamas over breakfast at the cottage.
Breakfast with GGpa
Goofasaurus Rex getting up EARLY in the morning at the cottage.
Splashing around with Grandma and AB
These are some pretty interesting looking objects... Oars, now what can I do with some oars.,,
Now this is a boat that I like... GGpa's new boat - Boat, boat boat!!!
William taking a trip around the bay with AB and mom.

All covered in sunscreen, hat, and boat coat ready for a spin around the bay - there is a kid in there somewhere...
Demonstrating the ways you can play with a pool noodle to GGpa. GGpa is marvelling at William's flexibility. Actually he is just marvelling at William - he loved having him up there for the week.
Mashed potatoes for dinner with Grandma. Impressing everyone with his table manners and ability to wield a spork - thanks to Delphine for leaving it at the cottage.
William's first swim in the lake! Thanks again to the Wilsons for leaving the swim float - he liked it so much better than the prospect of waterwings.
First day at the cottage trying on his new swimsuit - thanks to Barett for growing!!

Late August

Eating spaghetti with William is an interesting experience.
Flossing with spaghetti
