Big Lake

The kids and I finally checked off Big Lake on our things to do this summer! We were there for around 2 hours yesterday and they really enjoyed it. When I used to go with just Aurora we'd spend all day there. It's a bit different now with Carys being so young she was ready to go in 2 hours and actually told me she wanted to go home.

Aurora was bummed that she didn't have an older kid to swim to the deep end with but she still had fun with her younger siblings. Big Lake is always a good time...if they don't have chiggers:)

Up next is Minehaha Falls, Science Museum (Star Wars exhibit), and Como Zoo. I'm pretty sure I can get that all in before school starts.

I have to admit I've been over doing it at work and going in wayyyyy more than I should. Usually I go in Fridays when Brian gets home early or I'll go in late at night to get things done and I really would rather be home enjoying my family more before school starts. I'm going to have to quit going in so much and enjoy these last weeks of summer I'm so sad it's almost over! I HATE cold weather and it seems it's not too far away.

I'd post pictures of our trips but I still have to get a digital camera that actually takes decent pictures. That's on my "to do list"!

I love checking things off my list! Good luck on getting the other things done and honestly enjoy the rest of summer! I , too, am feeling the cold coming WAY too soon for me!
