4th of July at the Lake

My husband spent his childhood summers on this lake. Now our children bike the same paths, get ice cream at the same stand, decorate their bikes for the same parade. I cannot begin to tell you how much we love this place.

The Parade... Christopher, Peter, and Hannah decorated bikes and scooters.

The Rinky Dinks is a boys' club at the lake - celebrating their 87th year. My husband used to be one of those boys. Will wants to move there when he turns 9 so he can join.

The kids loved being with all their cousins... so wished we lived closer.

Family.

Just the cousins... why do I even try? Peter is in an anti-camera phase.

Mark is renting a house in the village this summer... "Please let us live with Uncle Mark!"
It was nearly impossible to leave... for all of us.
