Jacob and Adam rode into town for bread. After lunch we headed out to hike the monastery trails. The weather was perfect and it was a beautiful hike. We walked over to the cemetary and around the pond. The streams are just so beautiful.  From there we headed to 10 foot but it was crowded so we decided to go to Eagle river.  Adam and Eli swam some. They had the most fun playing in the sand by the stream with Daddy. I found a really big rock and Jacob carried it to the van for me. It was really heavy. We got back to camp around 4:30.

The score took a huge turn in the jack round.  Grandpa was in the lead until that round.  Daddy taught Eli how to start the fire.  Grandma, Adam, and I took a walk. Eli rode his scooter and came with us. The boys rode bikes until it was too dark. We sat by the fire and made smore's. Adam, Eli and I played Uno. Got to bed around 10:30.

They played until it was too dark to ride scooters. Grandma, Grandpa, Jared and I played a game of 3-13 and I won. Jacob got a fire going. Grandma showed us how to light our crummy matches and she made it look easy. We kept lighting matches and I thought we probably looked funny to some people.  Sitting in our screen tent lighting match after match. Haha.  Jacob and I took a walk and found Adam and Eli. We came up behind them to scare them. There was a deer by Lake Fanny Hooe and we followed it. It let us get pretty close. Adam says it's his deer friend and he's gotten close many times. We got to bed around 10:30.
