Making memories....the lake

Last Friday we ventured off to the lake for a FUN Friday!  Brant was off so we were all excited about spending a Friday together.  This is really just a collection of pictures for a few certain people who are missing the boys. 

For me it is a collection of pictures that soothe my soul, make me happy and give memories the boys will talk about next summer.

As I sat in my chair at the lake I watched the boys play.  Time stood still as the water captivated me and the sun warmed my body.......remember my obsession for water and sun.  The boys LOVE being near water like both their Momma and Daddy.  And Ryan is becoming so much more comfortable in the water. 

Brant had the opportunity to get some time just across the way to do some fishing......all alone. 

The boys ran back and forth from playing in the sand to playing in the water. It was HOT but the cool lake replenished them to make yet one more memory.  New friends.

Our boys are pretty friendly and so were these boys.  I enjoyed talking to their mom as the boys played.  Remember those memories as a child?  Making a new friend that you would never see again.
All the boys decided to "try" to catch minnows.  Later that day the boys talked about the boys from the lake.  A memory they will always have.

 
Oh for time to stand still and be at the lake again.  Of course they did not want to leave, but we know all good things must come to an end.  Plus I was about to have a heat stroke. 

My babies are not babies anymore. They are growing and life is passing right in front of my eyes. They are big boys full of life, with a little attitude and constantly moving....and it is super fast!  But every once in a while they will sit still and let me have a long look at the double blessing God has given me and Brant. 

Until another day at the lake this is my memory..........................

"All the days that came and went, and I did not realize it was life itself."
