Family and Cousins Gone

We had a very busy day on Wednesday with a visit from Sheila's family. Everyone had a really good time in some magnificent weather on the lake especially the kids. 

I'll venture to say that the weather we had yesterday was the most beautiful weather we have experienced in a very long time... perhaps the best ever while at the lake! It was sunny and clear... it was warm... the lake was calm... the water was clean and warm... it was a perfect day for all water activities and we all took advantage of that by starting our morning at 6am by paddling on the misty morning lake.

Sheila had Kenzie in her kayak while I had Lukey in my kayak. Nan and Pop caught up with us on the lake within a few minutes. 

When we arrived back at the house, we made some french toast with fresh strawberries. About the same time that we finished cleaning up breakfast, Sheila's brother arrived with his kids. By lunchtime, Liza had joined us as well.  

The day was spent kayaking, sailing, swimming, diving (off the springboard on the float), sliding down the slide (also on the float), and just generally lounging around at the beach and on the deck. Almost all of the time was spent on or in the water! 

Today we are left with just the two grandkids... two completely spent grandkids who are clearly as exhausted as I am as can be seen in this photo. 
Cousins gone and worn out...
