The 4th of July is by far one of the best weekends at the lake, EVER. There isn't an empty cottage and there isn't an empty dock anywhere. It's so fun...the hustle bustle. :) I think this is the first year where our kids actually remembered the "fun stuff" about the holiday. They love being up there with the whole family, they LOOOOVE the fireworks late at night, and they even love "Pat's fireworks." Ellie expected a great show this year. :) Tellie and Maya and Coop were crazy as ever, but certainly a welcomed part of the lake chaos...
I want, more than anything, to make these memories SLOWER than they are. It's hard to do that. It just tends to be busy, even amidst the atmosphere of the lake. I don't know why that is. I want to soak up every single second of our kids playing, laughing, swimming, riding waverunners, eating popsicles, and especially squealing at the great lights in the sky. Before I know it, they will want to be with their friends on this weekend, or with their boyfriends, or with their husbands/wife. Wow. We are blessed...these are the days!!!
