Playing at the Lake

We went to the lake on Friday and had a lovely time.  The sun was out; the water was cool; the kids had a blast.

 I make the girls all wear swim shirts to keep the sunburns down.  I finally got this kid to wear a shirt and it was so nice to not have to deal with a lobster back at the end of the day.  Sadly, he forgot to sunscreen his face and it was toasted.

 Delaney had a marvelous time swimming all over.  And she didn't have a single near-drowning experience!

Marian did her own thing most of the time and seemed to enjoy herself.

We brought a lot of floaties and the kids had fun using all of them and rotating through.

Callie was my fish counter.  She came over all morning to tell me how many fish she had spotted.  then she was cross I hadn't let her bring a fishing net.

Rylee refused to leave the safety of the shallowest part for most of the morning. Eventually she got braver.

Marian decided to be buried in the sand.  Very coarse sand, mind you.  Joshua was happy to assist. He recruited his new-found friend and got to work.  The look on Marian's face cracks me up.

Mostly buried and all happy.

Callie was doing a great job of swimming.  Delaney did as well.... as long as she had her float.

That's my cutie!!
