Last weekend Ben and I decided on a whim to take the kids and the dogs to the FOP lake.
We quickly grabbed a ball and a pan of brownies and off we went.
It was absolutely lovely!
The dogs swam and chased after their ball. The boys got all wet and dirty, and I laid out in the sun.
After the dogs were worn out (and I was too hot) we polished off our brownies, cleaned off the sand as best as we could and headed home for naps.
It was the best way to spend a Saturday!
It may have to be a weekly ritual, only from now on we will be able to swim—yeah no more cast—and maybe take a proper lunch with us!
(Luke and Henry really do have more shirts than the ones they are wearing in EVERY PICTURE! I apparently just need to quit putting the same ones on the TOP of thier stacks of clothes--or better yet just put away the long sleeved ones!)
