Happiness Is...Family Day Trips


Who could resist a fun day at the lake? Ryan's family had a little reunion in Culver, IN and we headed there for the day! Sunburns and freckles all around for our really lily-white crew, but we had an amazing time! My husband took a zillion pictures of me in the water with my kids. Yes, this never happens because I can't swim, but the shallow water and hot sun lured me in. It was wonderful!

This one just couldn't go wordless!

"Looks like a great day! Nothing better for relaxation (and working on that tan) than a day spent floating."

"That looks like a relaxing vacation. I have been hearing the term "staycation" lately and have been trying to do mini vacations around home. There is so much to see close by and we often times get caught up in going "away" and miss out on local attractions."

"What a fun family day...I had no idea you don't swim. So, yeah, I'm sure Ryan was ALL about capturing you in the water! Maybe this is just the beginning?

"amy,
no way...we live in Culver (well, we have for a week and a half now!) and my daughter and I were out around town today running errands, that would have been too funny if we had seen you! Hope you have a great day here and enjoyed the water. Were you at the beach or someone's house?

"Jessica- That is TOO funny! Culver is about 1 1/2 hrs away from where we live. We went there for a wedding last summer (at an academy) and then my husband's extended family has a lake cottage there that we visited this weekend. It was the first time for either of us and we absolutely loved it. The water was great and the kids have been asking when we can go back again :) Welcome to INDIANA :)"
