Vacation

Check out what this girl is doing - sitting up so good and enjoying "the beach" in our backyard. 
We're renting a "lake house" for the week - okay, so it's a cottage, but it is on a lake.  Lake house just sounds so much nicer.  Sometimes it seems like renting a cottage is just camping, upgraded, at least while packing.  But, the preparation is so worth it.  It is beautiful here and God has spoiled us here with unbeatable weather on our first full day.  The place we are staying is beautiful as well, and a bonus - it has wireless internet (I think that is how Jason sold me on this place) and a fantastic kitchen. 
We spent our first day enjoying the lake.  The boys loved tooling around in the paddle boat, playing in the sand and just being boys. 
We also explored the nearby town, known for the fictional Hodag.  I'm wondering who is going to have nightmares tonight?

The boys are out on the pier fishing, so Liddybug and I must sign off to go see if they've caught "the big one" yet.

Now how did I miss the "sitting" milestone??? That is one fantastic picture! So glad you're having such a good time. Thanks for checking in ~ I didn't know you had computer access, and I'd just been telling Jon how I miss you!

Glad you guys are enjoying your time away! The kids look like they love the lake house and everything that comes with it! Have a great week!!!

Have a wonderful time together! You'll have to let me know where this "lake house" is. We talked about camping on a lake but I think renting a house might be more fun (and more roomy).

Looks like the weather should be beautiful most of the week for you. :)
