Weekend at the Lake

My Dad had a marker birthday this year and instead of a big party, he wanted a weekend with all his kids and grandkids. So Mom rented a lake house and we spent the weekend playing games, reminiscing and pontoon-ing around the lake. The kids, along with my sister and Dad, were the only ones brave enough to enter the water--it was COLD! We had the best time hanging out and just soaking each other up! *happy sigh* It ended a too quickly.

    1. Yes, and there was enough room in the lake house to be close but not over-running each other. :)

    1. I know. I'm thinking we should make this a quarterly thing. :D (said from the girl that didn't have to do much for it)

    about the comment "issue" in your last blog
    as you know I like to email back
    I love connecting with my readers
    and I love hearing back form those who I give comment to as well
    the one thing I don't like about the replying on the blog is that I have to go back to all the blogs I have read to see what they commented back to me and that can be a little time consuming....
    thats all

    Love and Light
