Lake

We spent 5 days at the lake with my parents last week.  Highlights - lots of quality cousin time on the Palace Rocks, and trips to the Wild Center and the Essex County Fair. 

I love the view of the Crown Point Bridge!


 Katy took some awesome pictures with her real camera.  
This boy.  My heart.

My happy place.  I could spent hours on a paddle board in the middle of the lake.

Classic.


 David & Kat had us all to the Big House for dinner.

Emily was quite proud of herself for mastering the inflatable dolphin after everyone else fell off.

Chatting with Valentina.

Early morning iPad time with Papa. :)  He spent the first hour of the morning with the girls every day and let us sleep a bit.  So lovely.

Rob & Katy brought this "Champ" float.

Practicing walking on the rocks.

We took a great rainy day trip to the Wild Center!
 the girls loved the otters


outdoor wild walk with suspension bridges, giant model birds nest and spider web to climb in

art center


a little lower deck time.  my other happy place.

Dad & I took the girls up Merlins, which was more of an adventure with half the trail being hidden because of brush piles and downed trees.




 Alden adopted Nancy as his new best friend.  He pointed to her right away, and spent most of the week crawling over to her to be held.

And a morning at the fair!
