Labor Day weekend at the Lake!

This had to be, by far, the greatest weekend out to the lake we have EVER had. Not only did we have Daddy out all weekend with us, but the campground was packed! Everyone was in town for the long Labor Day weekend. The beach was a constant kid fest. There was balloon launchers, water guns, rafts and beach toys everywhere. Even I went almost completely accross the lake just to try and catch the rocketing water balloons.
We had campfires every night...Tyler had only roasted marshmellows up until this weekend. When I suggested roasting brats on the fire (since, it was 9:00 and we hadn't had anything for dinner besides ice cream) he looked at me as if I was crazy and he said "Ma, we don't roast hotdogs!"....when I had him do it...he ate the whole darn thing!
We can't forget all the bunnies and frogs we saw all weekend. And the snakeskin neighbor Joe found. Grandma Tonda was out and enjoyed most of Saturday and Sunday with us.


The best part had to be that Tyler had his first tubing experience! Its unfortunate that we don't use the boat more but with Sam being so little it can be more work right now that either of us want to attempt. This weekend we decided to venture out to big fish lake and take a boat ride. We finally got out the fire engine that Grandma Tonda bought forever ago. Tyler loved being pulled behind the boat in it and he was the hit of the campground when we brought it down to the lake later.

What a great weekend. I could sit and cry that school starts tomorrow...but instead I am heading off to bed! I love my family!
