A Day at the Lake

Sunday October 18, 2009 ~ After last week's winter blast
of temps. in the teens and 8+ inches of snow, today's 82
degrees felt like heaven! We couldn't waste this beautiful
day so we headed to the lake in the afternoon.

The weather was unbelieveably perfect! There were a few
fishermen on the water but otherwise it was quiet and peaceful.
*Don't mind the spots on the pictures...it's my camera!grrr!

Tyler and Cade enjoyed playing some baseball with Bernie.
Garrett, unfortunately wasn't able to join us...........for those
of you with teenagers I have one word....GIRLFRIEND!!!!

Garrett missed a fun afternoon. It was a great day for a
game of baseball!

I enjoyed some time sitting on the beach reading a book...
something I never get to do. What a treat!! I can't tell you
how tranquail the afternoon was. Sitting in the sand by the
water, listening to the sounds of the boys playing ball and the
sound of the water and seagulls........it was so enjoyable!

After the boys' wore Bernie out, hee hee, he joined me on
the beach. It was nice to spend some time together. He is
about to get busy with corn harvest so I won't see much of him.

The boys' walked around and found this cliff
to jump off so they had fun doing that. The water
has really come up since we were last out. In fact,
for those that went 4-wheeling with us, the places
we drove we can't even get to now, they're under
water!!

BOYS!! :)
After a few hours, we drove around for awhile
then decided to take the long scenic route home...
we drove completely around the lake!
We had a wonderful day together...a fun spur of
the moment day.
