Lake Day

Saturday, July 27th, we went to the lake. Justin's family came along, and we had a fabulous time. We took my dad's canoes along, and we stayed all day. By that evening, we were all exhausted, and even though we applied sunblock a few times, Justin and I were both lobster red.
It was a perfect day for the lake!
Here is Justin's dad not wearing a shirt, though you couldn't tell...
The men hauled the three canoes to the beach.
Sophie had her very first lake experience. This isn't a very good picture, but she kicked her legs frantically in the water.
Sophie was such a good girl all day!
A bunch of us posing in front of our shade for the day.
Sophie sat in her little floaty most of the day. She loved it. Here she is in her Little Mermaid swimming suit.

We all pitched in to build a sand castle.
And then the boys tore it apart and threw it at each other.
And then the war turned into a dunking fest in the water.
Justin's nephew Kaden, Anna, and Anna's sister Yvonne.
Sophie even took a nap in her floaty.

Justin and I had a fabulous time canoeing. And check out my ghostly white legs!

My cousins Gary and Megs came toward the end to hang out with us!

Gary was the only one who successfully tipped his canoe over in the water.
Little Tucker loved the water.

Dan ended up getting pegged by one of the canoes when we were carrying them back.
Later it looked like he was harboring a baseball in his forearm. (He is fine now though)
To end the day we had a barbecue and watched The Princess Bride. Here is Sophie playing with her cousin Kaden.
