a long weekend at the lake

We had the chance to take a long weekend, so we did.

This little girl came along too.  See her trusty monkey with his seat belt safely in place?

 The kids picked this weed/flower before we left, and had it in a vase.  It was too pretty to leave behind, and so was the dandelion.

The weather was cool and lovely, warm enough to swim, not enough to be hot out.

The traveled to the sand bar.

I piled all that junk on the bed thinking it would keep Sam off.

Wrong.

love, Val
