We had beautiful weather- sunny and 80's almost every day. A big thanks to the grandparents- G&G K. for taking Rea for a couple days so Andy and I could enjoy couple time without a toddler. And G&G W. for helping us with Rea while we were there.
We enjoyed the outdoor heated pool daily and it was so fun watching Rea turn into a little fish... we played games, lounged on the deck, shopped, explored some parks, frequented some fun bars, and ate so much good food! My waistband is glaring at me right now.
There is something so carefree and relaxing about being next to the lake... all your stress just melts away. And there is something so special about being with family- I love hearing stories from years passed and feel so blessed that our families can come together and have fun together.
Definitely another great year at the lake! Until next time...
