This is the life

Summer life.
Busy, happy, I love it.

Yesterday we (the older sibs minus Meg) went boating in the evening.
I don't know how many times we shouted "It is so BEAUTIFUL!" out into the vast lake, but it was a lot. Because it was. Beautiful I mean.
There was no wind, so the water was so calm, the weather and water were both warm, it was perfect.

We had so much fun.

Camping Trip/The Second

Our camping trip began on Monday. We got some boating in with friends that evening. Then the clouds covered the sky.
Mid-afternoon on Tuesday, the rain began. And didn't stop for the next two days! But we still made the most of our time together. Some of us ran/walked in the rain, we took the kids to see a movie at the theater, hung out with Meg at our Grandparent's vacant house, took four trips with the vehicles we had to get everyone to DQ for a meal, played cards in the camper, and took lots of selfies. ;)





Once again, Ker, Bob, Zach, and I traveled home each evening to take care of the chores.



We counted twenty people in the RV at one point...










Then, finally... the sun began to shine!
We crammed a lot of fun into that last day.
Boating, tennis, a run on the trail around the lake (one of those puddle-jumping, sliding down the hills, wading across the creek because the bridge was out, kind of runs... but it was still fun. :), campfire, and more boating.
You may have noticed from the pictures that we got a new boat! This was our first time trying it out... and it was NICE! :)





























Grams and Gramps came over for a visit.


Ain't she cute?!? :)









And that's it!
Hope you enjoyed this peek into our camping adventures!
