New London Water Days

We went back to New London to enjoy the Water Day festivities. Our day started with a one-mile fun run. It was Bennett's first time running a mile, and his only motivation to keep going was to beat Beck. About halfway through, he started to get angry, like REALLY angry because he was tired, but every time he'd turn around, and see Beck behind him, then speed up.













Despite seeing each other only once a year, the boys quickly rekindled their friendship:



After the run, we watched the parade and then had lunch at the fire station. We were debating what to do, and ended up taking the kids to the little carnival. Bennett did the bounce houses while Caroline took a pony ride:



Then we went to Lake Florida for a swim and dinner bbq. I think it was their first time swimming in a lake, in depths where they couldn't touch the ground. Caroline was a little clingy but both loved it.






 We ended our evening with a pontoon ride. It was a great day!
