Soaking Up the Rays

Jonathan's work schedule has started to ease up a little for the month of May. It's perfect timing because we've been having spectacular weather! Today we decided to take advantage of the sun and the fact that we have a beautiful lake only a 15 minute drive from our house. We actually have a few lakes that are close by, but I like this one because it has a nice sandy beach for Edison to play in.

There were people swimming in it today, however, it was still a little cold for our taste. Edison spent most of his time digging around in the sand. I walked around for a bit, putting Davis to sleep and then got to spend some time reading my book. And Jonathan spent his time flying his float plane, of course! Jonathan and Edison also built a great sand castle, and then Edison demolished it when it was time to leave... what a typical boy.

Our shelter from the sun... it was quite windy which is why it looks lop-sided

We had a lot of fun and it is so nice to be out in the sun when you're used to getting rain most of the time. I think we are going to have to head back again next week!
