Hearting on Summer.

We were extremely fortunate to borrow my sister and her husbands cabin for the week, in order to get away, spend some time with friends, and enjoy the summer.  And summer, it was.  It was extremely hot all week and only rained during one late evening, giving us ample beach and water time.

When we first arrived, my sister and family were still there so we were able to go on a boat ride around the lake.  Jason also tried wakeboarding for the first time - to which he did great!  Unfortunately I did not have my camera on the boat to capture it all, but I can vouch that he did get up.  Colin loved the boat, and Addy slept the whole time so I am going to go ahead and assume that she did too.

Here is our week, in pictures.

Some fun with straw glasses...


New toys to play with...


A perfect reading chair in the screen room to catch up on magazines that have sat all school year...


More reading chairs and books...


Lots of time in the water...


Addy did not so much enjoy her first plunge...


A trip to the beach...




A bath in the sink...


Fun with a friends...




A visitor...


A beautiful cottage with views that even make doing dishes fun...



Lots of smiles...







Lots of time to relax and nap (at least for her)...


And most importantly, family.
