At the far corner of this picture my Dad is doing his daily swimming laps! Go Dad!
This year, unfortunately, Jay was unable to go the cottage. However, my sister was gracious enough to assist me with driving the boys over the border to the Bass Lake cottage. This year celebrated the 40th year that the cottage has been in the Keating family! I was a little worried about crossing the border, since I didn't have a birth certificate for Raphael. We did get pulled over, but it took less then five minutes for our paperwork to go through! 
Poppa is Jacob's best friend!
Acting tough, but really only looking tired!
Aunt R. and Raphael sleeping in! 
Jacob wearing his Jamaica t-shirt from "ecca"The weather was gorgeous when we first arrived! It was sunny and in the 80's. Rebecca and I thought the electricity went out...this is a long and funny story. We ended up talking to the neighbor who had the electric company come out only to show us how to properly turn it on!! Needless to say we felt a littlestupid since we were sure that the electricity had been knocked out (we were only pushing up the wrong lever the entire time). The boys slept really well every night and we enjoyed swimming every day! I love the cottage and can't wait to go back next summer!
