This is the day that Marshall came home from Afghanistan. They had to come to this hangar on buses, and Marshall was on the fourth bus that came through. I was tears because I was sooo overwhelmed. It took Jacob a few seconds to realize who Marshall was, and Zachary just smiled because that's what he does. Camberley got to stay home from school that morning. Their flight actually came in a little early. It was such a great day for our family to finally have Marshall home from the desert.
This photo was taken in the last week. I just love spending time with the boys. I also love dressing them alike
, which Marshall doesn't care for too much. Marshall has just gotten home in the last two weeks. So he is enjoying time with the kids as well.
We went to a park that was on Lake Superior, and we got these great photos of the boys in the trees. Then we headed on down to the water. The beach was covered in rocks, and the kids sat down to throw them into the water. It was such a beautiful day. 
We went a river that has a water fall in it, and there was great spot for the younger kids to swim in. It was so warm Jacob just loved every minute of it until it was time to go.
Camberley went down into the bigger area to try out the water. She almost got taken away by the current. This summer was her first swimming experiences. She loved swimming.
Jacob and his cousin Evryck checking out the toad they all found that day.
Camberley actually picked it up. I was surprised that she did because she doesn't like slimy animals.
My dad has an old water pump in his yard as a yard ornament, and the kids had to try it out.
