Swam the dock!

Julia swam out to the dock - without a life jacket. I thought we were two summers away from that! She and her cousin (well - my cousin's daughter - so whatever that makes her) had a blast jumping off the dock and swimming around.

Anna loved the lake as well. She was trying her hardest to drown - but survived despite herself. Those water wings are a Godsend for kids like her. Yes I know it doesn't take the place of super size adult supervision - but it keeps her face above the water.

Emma enjoyed being manhandled by her extended family. I learned this weekend it may not require a village to raise kids, but it sure is awfully helpful.

It was so nice to only be an hour and a half from my favorite place on Earth. I can't wait to go back this week!
