Summer......So Far

Summer for us starts Memorial Day weekend.
We begin by hosting our annual Family BBQ and then the next three months ahead are for exploring, camping and finding ways to cool off.

So far we have been to the cabin and the lake for a quick but much needed get-away where we had lots of fun on the boat trying out the new tube.
Of course all that playing in the water and sun makes one quite hungry so by the beach, in the shade is the perfect place to eat.
 And time at the lake always includes fishing.
He caught the biggest fish.

 We celebrated Father's Day

 and then our oldest spent a week at a local EFY.
 

Where there were (apparently) twice as many girls as boys.
The dances he attended made him oh so giddy!  And the whole week
 was a wonderful experience for this young man.

 We took some time for a play date in Nanna and Papa's new neighborhood.  They moved to Daybreak where the community has it's own lake and all different kinds of playgrounds.

 
  We attended her first Dance Recital and she preformed.
 
 t
  And last night was the Rain Gutter Regatta for our Webelos Scout.
 
 The three kids who are still in school will FINALLY be done tomorrow.  Then on to more summer fun.
