Last year we finished the remodel on the family lake house! This year we plan to create thousands of memories here with our family! We made our first trip there this weekend, Anthony took off two days of work to "enjoy" this weekend! It was soooo much work!!! The leaves from the year needed to be raked. The debri and logs washed up from the year needed to be cleaned out. The house needed to be dusted, mopped and cleaned! BUT- we did it! Lots of Advil and blisters later we have a lake house ready for the warm weather! The kids enjoy being outdoors, even if the water was still cold and unable to swim. Granna, Papa, Uncle Clay and Aunt Justina came for a short visit too! The kids enjoyed catching fish at night with Uncle Clay on the dock. The fish with "whiskers" (catfish) was worth talking about! Aunt Justina managed to assist all three climibing trees at the same time! Granna and Papa brought fresh strawberries to enjoy on the dock. The boys enjoyed carrying the strawberries around the hill with the shovel and hoe, ahh boys! Johnathan and Jayne Elizabeth discovered that they sleep better together in the same bed. The "vacation" was lots of work, but the reward will be great!
Lake House 2011
Many, many leaves are now gone to a compost pile, and not against the house!
