The Cottage

Yesterday we spent a wonderful day at the cottage with family. It was about 93degrees and there wasn’t a cloud to be seen in the sky. Morgan was so excited to go up to the cottage for a day, and she really play hard all day long. Olivia slept the best she has the whole trip, so I guess that everyone had a wonderful day. Some highlight of the day were:

Morgan took her very first tube ride, she wanted to be in the tube all by herself. This was a stretch for me, but she did really well and the second time she went out on the lake it was all kids on the back of the boat. Morgan also has a new love boats she road in the boat as much as possible with Uncle Dale it was cute. She also played with her cousins all day she didn’t take a nap( I didn’t even lay her down) it’s a good thing that we put both of the girls in their p.j.'s for the ride home.

Olivia played in the sand for the very first time, yes I know we live in the Pacific Northwest and my child has never been to the beach. She loved the beach and was very determined to taste a little bit of it too.

I was able to relax, this may sound very strange seeing as how I had two very small children at the lake all day but I was very relaxed. I have gotten used to Morgan being around the water, and feel like she know what she is not supposed to do. It was wonderful to be able to sit in the sun and talk with the other mommy’s(Luke’s cousins).

Luke also had a wonderful time, but it a sore(really sore) this morning. He learned to wake board yesterday. I think that he did very well once he let the boat pull him up, he kept trying to do that himself. On the drive home last night he told me that was really fun, but I’m so tired and I can already tell that I am going to hurt in the morning. I’m very proud of him for trying something new.

Well I know that it has been awhile in between post, but I have been feeling really awful and just haven’t wanted to do much blogging. Luke and I are taking off to Detroit tomorrow just the two of us. It should be a fun, he is going to take me to the University of Michigan Campus, and then we are going out to meet up with some of Luke's old college friends. I hope that you are all having a wonderful week, we are missing all of you and are looking forward to seeing everyone in a few weeks.
