My friend Brenda and I decided to plan a lake day with our kiddos. I will be leaving soon to Girl's Camp and knew I wanted a day of "no distractions" to spend with the kids to enjoy them. It was a great incentive for the kids as well. I had told them a few days prior that if they worked hard and helped me we would go to the lake with our friends. And they were awesome all week.
We literally spent ALL day there. Even after 8 coats of sunblock a few of us (errr...okay all of us) got a pretty good suntan burn.
Oh man- they don't come cuter or sassier!
Scarlett spent the whole time in the water. She was in heaven.
Lukas swam out to the dock and went down the slide. He is so fearless.
Look at that pleased face.
Scarlett is in love with Morgan. She talks about her all the time. Morgan is such a good sport to always help out.
Caleb got this boat for his birthday. Let's just say that the second he put it down someone would snatch up.
Cooper had a blast sifting sand. He is such a cute lil' guy. He makes me laugh with the adorable things he says.
Savanah and Paige were lil' water babies.
I gave Savanah 3 tasks to do in order to earn a frosty from Wendy's on our way home.
1. Slide down the slide
2. Flip off the dock
3. Do "Mermaid Hair" for me
Slide- check
Flip- check
"Mermaid hair"- check. She totally nailed it!
Here are a few more fav's from our trip.
Not only did we get to have a blast- we also got to keep our houses totally clean, while getting the kids extremely tired. I would say we are pretty much GENIUS!!
I love this lady! She truly has taught me more about being Christlike, compassionate, and loving towards others. She is a wonderful mother and an incredible friend. I don't know what I would do without her.
