The Lake

For as long as I can remember... we've gone to Candle Lake.  I grew up with walks to the little beach, amazing sunsets, ruff boat rides, docking the boat in the middle of the lake, watching my sisters ski & tube, listening to Fine Young Cannibals, visiting old friends, watching the bears at the dump and camp fires with marshmallows.  It was nothing to just pack up everything Friday night and head up for the weekend. Its just how we rolled. It was awesome.  I'm so glad my parents made the effort.

Nowadays with every one's busy lives, we don't always get to go up...but I'm still thankful for the times when we do make the effort to hang out as a family (alllll squished into the little cabin).  Its all about making memories. I love those good old fashioned memories.

My nieces and nephew have grown so much since these last photos were taken... and my newest niece Morgan will have her 1st lake experience this weekend. :-)

Today is one of those days, I'm really thankful for family.
