It’s almost August. Have you noticed? Guess what? We have not been to the lake once! I stopped their swimming lessons in June figuring we’d spend the summer at the lake, but, umm… nope. Today we had a trip to the dentist at 8am and decided to head to the lake after that. Sunny and high 80s, it was a good day.

At the dentist both kids got cleanings and Lex got explicit orders to wiggle that loose tooth and get it out! Otherwise we’ll be back in two weeks to discuss extraction. He is not in favor of that. Both kids did a stellar job of behaving for the hygienist and the dentist.

Then we headed to the lake! The sun was shining, the water was warm, and I have top-notch kids :) We had fun. They even decided to wear their life jackets this year! Lex remembered the belly button rule and asked if he could go deeper if he was wearing his life jacket. I said yes, if he had the life jacket and I was with him. He ran up the beach to get his jacket! So funny. I didn’t have the camera then so you’ll just have to use your imagination, but here are a few other pictures.
