Water guns, smores, swimming, boat rides, and fire works all from the comfort of Oma & Opa's lakeside home front at Lake Wildwood AND the Hoevers AND ALL FIVE cousins at the Wildwood ALL at the same time. Great fun, food, family and friends in all! (with very little sleep)
Lake Wildwood hosts an annual themed boat parade. This year the theme was Hollywood and the sky was the limit. Pirates, Julius Caesar, Marilyn, Dorthy & Toto, you name it. Not to mention that Opa was the Grand Poobah in the front boat leading the parade. Each year it is a contest as to who gets the most wet, the spectators on the shore or the characters in the boat.
No boat float was spared when passing docks on Forest Park Circle. Aunt Susie lead the taunts carried out by Sam and Eric. They exclaimed, "you want a shower" as the blasted the boats with water.
No fourth of July is complete without Smores and fireworks. This was Eric's first year to taste the "smears" and witness the colors followed by the sounds of booms and cracks. He made it halfway through the fireworks before asking us to please put him to bed.
Noah slept through it all which is also and excellent way to celebrate the fourth. Nothing like really good naps!
Thanks for a great weekend full of memories Oma & Opa!
