Liam of the Lake

I wouldn't call it summer quite yet, but this weekend's warm blue skies could have fooled anyone. The lake was beckoning so we spontaneously packed up (for about an hour and a half of course), strapped our babies into backpacks and carriers and into the woods we went!
At this point Liam had no idea what was in store for him...other than a nifty new jacket!


But the cool-ish water was up his shorts soon enough....


There's no way I'd be poking my toes in the lake just yet, but these two didn't seem to mind losing a little feeling in the legs....


Liam had so much fun he wanted Dad to bring some of the lake back home for later...


After towelling off it was time for a few refreshments. Liam tried to ignore this off-limits beverage....


....still pretending not to notice....


...but in the end the temptation proved too great!


Meanwhile, Mojo ran down dogs twice his size all in the name of protecting the snacks. And a stick or two.


Sarah snoozed the afternoon away while wearing her favorite accessories: a pink hat...and Mommy.


And Liam did some more foraging in the woods, which reminds me...


....to empty the pound of rocks Liam put in my pockets before they find their way into the washing machine!
